Vintage Dacor R - 4 Double Hose Scuba Regulator, EXC
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:665730 |
Really nice Dacor R-4 double hose scuba regulator, serviced and dive-ready. The regulator was disassembled, cleaned and inspected, and serviced with many hard to find NOS parts. The HP seat, exhaust duckbill, and HP diaphragm are rare NOS parts. The LP seat is new, and the main diaphragm is very good used. Everything functions perfectly. The regulator locks up tight, and is adjusted for optimal performance.
The hose loop is OEM, or possibly fitted with later replacement hoses... on the OEM 1 1/4" mouthpiece and non-returns. The stock Dacor hoses were stiff when new, so the included hoses are still quite flexible in comparison, and have very little set. The OEM mouthpiece is still flexible and supple, as are the non-return valves. 1" Tinnerman clamps are included for the airhorn ends, but non-stock clamps are included for the mp end.
This regulator was refurbished to be as close to stock as it was when it came out of the factory, except for the duckbill exhaust subbed in for the 2nd diaphragm. This is the C3N setup, and makes the regulator a better breather.
Note: Out of town. Will not ship until 6/26.
I offer this regulator, as always, with this disclaimer:
Diving is a potentially dangerous activity. I cannot guarantee your safety using this regulator. You need to get trained in the use of double hose regulators, and understand their unique qualities. It is up to you to determine that this vintage regulator and its associated accessories are appropriate for your intended use, and your decision to use them as life support equipment is solely your responsibility.
