IntroductionScubatech regulators are the result of many years of research and development, and Scubatech has utilized proven materials and design to maximize reliability and performance.

This manual is intended only as a guide for experienced service personnel, who completed a Scubatech service and repair training. It is not intended for self-study or for the user.

Scubatech repair trainings are available periodically to Scubatech dealers.

Servicing and repair at shop level mainly involves cleaning, inspection, adjustment, and replacement of worn parts.

Should you have any questions on any of the procedures, inspections or tests, please contact Scubatech Sp. z. o.o.


Safety PrecautionsThis manual provides step by step instructions for disassembly, inspection, cleaning, reassembly, and testing of the Scubatech V2 regulator (1st stage).

It is recommended, that all steps are followed in the order given. Please read each section completely and carefully PRIOR to carrying out the steps described in that section. This will familiarize you with important precautions to take during each service procedure. Pay close attention to all WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, and NOTES that are intended to draw your attention to items of importance.

Definition of Notes, Warnings and CautionsNoteEmphasizes important information and hints.

WarningIndicates any situation or technique that may result in potential damage to the product, or that renders the product unsafe, if instructions are not followed correctly.

CautionIndicates a procedure or situation, that may result in serious injury or death for either the technician or the user, if instructions are not followed correctly.


General ProceduresMaintenance SchedulesRegulators are subject to a variety of environmental factors, that over time can affect their performance.

NoteAs a Scubatech dealer, you are advised to inform your staff and customers, that Scubatech regulators require complete servicing at least once a year.

Under certain circumstances, a complete servicing is required every 3-6 months. These circumstances include:

● Frequent or improper use● Inadequate routine fresh water rinsing● Regulator use in dirty or polluted waters● Rental use● Regular use in chlorinated (pool) water

Recommended maintenance schedules are based on average use under normal conditions and assume, that recommended preventative maintenance and storage procedures have been followed as outlined in the Scubatech owner’s manual.

NoteYou should advise the customer, that any adjustments or servicing on Scubatech regulators must be performed by Scubatech, or by an authorized Scubatech dealer, who has attended a Scubatech service training.

DocumentationScubatech strongly recommends, that you document al service and repair works thoroughly, in order to be able to prove, that the regulator has been taken care of properly. For this purpose, you may use the service and repair form in appendix 2. You should file this information in a proper way and according to the local regulations.

NoteYou should always take notes or photos of the regulator configuration before disassembly and in case there are damaged or heavily worn parts. Include these photos in your documentation.


Initial InspectionPrior to beginning the service, a preliminary inspection and pre-test of the entire breathing system is recommended. This will help you to identify any problems, that may affect the first stage. This initial inspection should include the following:

Inlet FilterIf the inlet filter in the first stage is discolored, the entire regulator should be completely serviced. Deposits of rust (red powder) or aluminum oxide (gray powder) on the filter may indicate, that water has entered the SCUBA cylinder and caused internal corrosion. In this case, you should notify the customer, that their SCUBA cylinder(s) may be in need of visual inspection, cleaning and testing. Advise your customers, to regularly inspect the inlet filter visually (without dismantling the regulator) for any discoloration or corrosion.

High Pressure (HP) and Low Pressure (LP) HosesInspect the hoses carefully for any signs of cracking, tearing, or excessive abrasion of the outer rubber covering. Remove all protectors (if present) and examine the area around the metal fittings for any damage to the hose. Inspect the fittings for signs of excessive corrosion.

NotePay special attention, when textile (braided) hoses are used. These hoses do not provide an internal support layer and must be replaced, when showing signs of abrasion or damage.

WarningPlease note, that you need to replace hoses with a brand or model according to Scubatech specifications. Failing to do so could void the regulator's CE certificate.

All Chrome Plated PartsInspect these parts for any excessive corrosion, indicating weak or absent chrome plating. Also look for any signs of peeling or flaking of the chrome plating.

Regulator Pre-TestA regulator pre-test should include all tests outlined in the test section ("Assembly, Step 9).This test will assist you in determining, if there are any specific performance deficiencies not mentioned by the customer.

NoteYou should document your findings!

Infrequently Used RegulatorsDo not assume that a regulator is in good condition, because of infrequent use or because it has been in storage. Even under these circumstances, deterioration of the O-rings and corrosion may occur.


Removing O-RingsWhen removing O-rings, be careful not to damage the regulator surfaces in contact with the O-rings.

WarningTools used to remove O-rings must not have any sharp edges or points that could scratch metal sealing surfaces. Scubatech recommends, that all O-ring removal tools should be made of either brass or plastic.

About your Work AreaServicing and repair of the regulator should be carried out in a clean well illuminated work area.

It is recommended to use a working mat or a wooden board, in order to keep all regulator parts together, to protect the table surface and to preserve a clean work area:

Cut-proof working mat

WarningBe careful not to mix the parts of several disassembled regulators.You should establish an effective procedure for this.

Use boxes with note holders, to separate regulator parts from another:

Simple plastic box with regulator parts


About ToolsSome special tools are required for proper disassembly and reassembly. While Scubatech offers some of them, you will find a variety of similar tools on the market. the following describes the proven tools for regulator servicing.

Air NozzleA simple air nozzle for inflator hoses can be used to clean/dry regulator parts.

Remember to use clean pressurized air.

Allen KeysIt is a good idea to have an assortment of allen keys ready.

Please note, that the LP and HP plugs of some Scubatech regulators require a special inch size allen key.

Dentist Tools for O-Ring RemovalUse dentist tools with pointed ends to remove old O-rings.

Tools used to remove O-rings must not have any sharp edges or points that could scratch metal sealing surfaces. Scubatech recommends, that all O-ring removal tools should be made of either brass or plastic. You may even use a toothpick.


Dentist Tools for O-Ring PlacementUse dentist tools with ball-shaped ends to place new O-rings and Teflon rings.

Holding ToolUse this special holding tool with threads for LP and HP ports in the first stage, in order to fix the 1st stage in a vice.

Make sure, that this tool is always fully screwed in the 1st stage.

Setting Tool 2nd StageThis special tool is used to adjust the "sensitivity" of the second stage.

It is available as an "inline version", installed between MP hose and 2nd stage and as a "standalone version".


Low Pressure GaugeIf you do not have a test bench at hand, use a low pressure gauge to check the regulator.

These gauges can be connected to the inflator or installed between 2nd stage and LP hose. The latter allows setting the 2nd stage and low pressure at the same time.

Pen KnifeUse a pen knife to cut and shape cable ties.

PliersUse small pliers to tighten cable ties.


Ring Spanner (Double)This spanner is used to remove 2nd stage caps of some regulators.

Ring Spanner (Single)This spanner is used to remove the 1st stage environment cap and the diaphragm clamping.

Please note, that this spanner has been optimized with some tape, in order to avoid scratches on the regulator surfaces.

You may also use a matching oil filter wrench with a leather stripe for this purpose.

SpannersIt is a good idea to have an assortment of spanners ready. Try to avoid the use of adjustable spanners, since these might easily damage metal surfaces due to their less than ideal fit.

Special Tool for 2nd StagesSome 2nd stages require specially shaped tools to remove certain plugs or screws.


Torque WrenchAn adjustable torque wrench with a matching allen insert and/or hex socket simplifies the removal/installation of yoke retainers and DIN housings.


Cleaning Agents and LubricantsO-rings should be lubricated with an approved compound (please refer the following table for proper lubricants). O-rings should be lubricated only with a very light film of grease.

WarningUnder no circumstances, use spray (aerosol) lubricants!The aerosol propellant may damage the plastic and rubber components of the regulator, and the lubricant will quickly evaporate, providing little or no lasting benefit.

Cleaning and InspectionGeneralAll parts should be cleaned first in a warm detergent (not over 56 °C), consisting of mild soapand water. Use a soft nylon bristle brush to remove any excess or loose contamination.After this initial cleaning, rinse all parts thoroughly in clean fresh water and dry them with filtered low-pressure air (2 bar).

Then, metal parts should be cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner using the appropriate ultrasonic cleaning solution (see table with lubricants and cleaners).

Be sure, all O-rings and other rubber or plastic parts are removed before cleaning in an ultrasonic cleaner or chemical bath. Cleaning solutions may damage these components.

If an ultrasonic cleaner is not available, metal parts can be cleaned by soaking them in a chemical bath of Chrome safe (see table with lubricants and cleaners) and agitating gently for 3-4 minutes. Metal parts can also be cleaned in a mild acetic solution (distilled white household vinegar) for 10-15 minutes.

WarningCleaning times in excess of those recommended may damage plated parts. Never clean parts for longer than specified by the manufacturer of the solution used.

Only parts made of brass, plated brass, and stainless steel should be immersed in chemical cleaning solutions.

CautionUse the proper hand and eye protection when handling chemical cleaning solutions.

After cleaning in any solution, thoroughly rinse parts with clean fresh water and dry them with filtered low-pressure air (2 bar).

Before beginning the reassembly, inspect all parts (new and reused), to ensure that each part is clean and free of any contamination, corrosion, or degradation.

All O-rings must be replaced during servicing. New O-rings should be inspected for contamination and/or imperfections.

LubricationSome O-Rings should be lightly dressed with a thin film of approved lubricant prior to installation (see table with lubricants and cleaners).

WarningRemember, that lubricated O-Rings tend to "attract" contamination. Therefore, you should only lubricate O-rings that are in contact with moving parts.

Do not use any petroleum based lubricants or products, or any aerosol silicone sprays on any part of Scubatech regulators. The petroleum base or propellant gas may attack or weaken plastic or rubber parts.


ReplacementIn addition to the O-rings, the following parts must be routinely replaced during servicing:

● HP seat ● Diaphragm● Conical filter

All O-rings and the above mentioned replacement parts are included in the service kit.

InspectionThe following parts should be closely inspected as stated below. Close inspection is best accomplished by using strong magnification under bright light.

● Main body:Inspect all cavities for nicks, scratches, pitting, or any defects in the plating. Pay particular attention to the sealing edge of the valve cone and the diaphragm seating shoulder.

● Diaphragm clamping:Inspect for signs of permanent corrosion, including pitting or cracks in the metal surface.

● Environment cap:Inspect for signs of permanent corrosion, including pitting or cracks in the metal surface.

● Main spring:Inspect for signs of permanent corrosion, including pitting or cracks in the metal surface.

● Balance spring:Inspect for signs of permanent corrosion, including pitting or cracks in the metal surface.

● Balance plug:inspect the interior sealing area and O-ring sealing groove for any nicks, scratches, pitting, or any defect of the chrome plating.

● Lifter:Inspect the interior cavity for any nicks, scratches, pitting.

● DIN bolt:Examine the condition of the threads and the O-ring sealing groove at the base for any signs of damage.

● DIN wheel:Examine the condition of the threads for any signs of damage.

Should any of the listed parts show any damage, they must be replaced with a new part.

Check all metal parts for excessive wear or corrosion.

Check all metal sealing surfaces, which make contact with O-rings for any signs of contamination and/or imperfections, that may cause leakage past the O-ring seal.

Examine all chrome plated surfaces for any evidence of peeling or flaking of the chrome plating.

Inspect all threads for galling, cross threading, or damage to the chrome plating.

Should any parts show damage or excessive wear, they must be replaced with new parts.


About O2-Clean RegulatorsThe use of Scubatech regulators with up to 100 % oxygen as breathing gas requires thorough procedures for cleaning, de-greasing and assembly.

WarningOnly make a Scubatech regulator O2 clean, if there is a special O2 kit with Viton O-rings available for this particular regulator.

After cleaning the metal parts in the ultrasound bath, rinse them with distilled water and de-grease them with acetone. Always wear single-use medical gloves (talcum powder-free) to handle acetone-cleaned metal parts in order to avoid finger prints.

Check de-greased metal parts with ultraviolet light for fingerprints.

Only use lubricants certified for pure oxygen with 300 bar (e. g. "Klüberalfa"). Lubricate only, where absolutely necessary.

AssemblyWarningUse only genuine Scubatech parts, subassemblies, and components when assembling any Scubatech product.

CautionDO NOT attempt to substitute a genuine Scubatech part with a part by another manufacturer, regardless of any similarity in shape, size, or appearance. Doing so may render the product unsafe, and could result in serious injury or death.

Step 1 – Adding New O-Rings to the Balance Plug● Place the two O-rings on the

balance plug.

● Use the O-ring pick tool with ball end to push the third (small) O-ring into the balance plug.

● Place the balance spring on the balance plug.

● Install the HP seat on the balance spring and set the sub-assembly aside.


Step 2 – Installing O-Rings on all HP/LP Plugs and/or Hose Ends● Install the matching O-rings

(HP/LP) on all plugs and/or hoses used with the 1st stage.

Step 3 – Installing the Diaphragm Clamping● Insert the holding tool into the

main body. Make sure the thread is fully inserted into the main body.

● Assemble the lifter, the diaphragm and the diaphragm washer:Place the lifter in the main body and make sure the mushroom-shaped lifter head lies flat.

● Place the diaphragm in the under-cut groove of the main body.

● Place the diaphragm washer on the diaphragm and make sure, that its edge is fully inserted into the groove.


● Place the spring carrier on the diaphragm.

● Assemble the Diaphragm Clamping:Screw the diaphragm clamping clockwise into the main body, untilit touches the diaphragm.

● � ��(�#�(�� %�&��"��!�"% #��Insert the C-spanner into the diaphragm clamping, and turn clockwise, until diaphragm clamping and main body lie metal to metal (max torque 14 Nm).

Step 5 – Assembling the Main Spring● Slightly lubricate a spring washer,

and place it on the spring seat.

● Place the main spring on the spring washer.

● Slightly lubricate a spring washer, and place it on the main spring.

● Place the adjustment nut on the main spring.

● Insert a 6 mm Allen key into the adjustment nut.

● Turn the adjustment nut clockwiseapprox. 3 turns in.

Step 6 – Assembling the Balance Plug● Insert the balance plug

assembled in step 1 into the main body.

● Insert a 6 mm Allen key into the balance plug and tighten.


Step 7– Assembling the DIN Adapter● Place the filter with O-ring in the DIN

bolt (on the side facing the main housing).

● Place the style disc and the DIN wheel on the main body DIN bolt port, and install the DIN bolt in the main body.

● Place a 6 mm Allen key on the DIN bolt, and turn the DIN bolt clockwise to tighten.

Step 8 – Finishing the Assembly and Pre-Setting● Prepare a SCUBA tank with pressurized air (at least 100 bar).

● Install the 1st stage on the tank (only finger-tight the DIN wheel).

● Open the tank valve to blow out all ports in the main body (this frees them from small chips, created during assembly).

● Install the HP/LP plugs in the main body, and tighten with 4 Nm.

● Preset the IP:Install the LP hose, a LP gauge, an adjusting tool and the 2nd stage on the 1st stage.

● Insert a 6 mm Allen key into the adjustment nut and slowly turn it clockwise.

● When turning the adjustment nut, put the other hand on the 2nd stage and keep purging the 2nd stage with every half-turn, until the IP reaches 8,5 - 9.0 bar.

● Purge the 2nd stage repeatedly and make sure, the IP gauge stops at 9.0 bar. After several purging cycles, the intermediate pressure may creep over 9.0 bar. But it must stop at max. 9.4 bar and stay there after 5 minutes.

● Install the environment kit:Place the transmitter, the environment disc and the environment cap on the 1st stage.

● Insert a C-spanner in the environmentcap, and turn clockwise to tighten it with 14 Nm.


Step 9 – Testing the Intermediate PressureCautionBefore testing the intermediate pressure, you need to connect the 1st stage to a fully assembled and properly adjusted second stage. This will provide a safety relief valve, should the intermediate pressure exceed 11-12 bar.

If a properly adjusted second stage is not available, be sure to open the bleed valve of the test gauge before pressurizing!

Failure to relieve intermediate pressure in excess of 28 bar may result in damage to the test gauge or LP hose, and/or to severe injuries.

● Test the function of the environment kit:Push in deeply the environment disc of the pressurized 1st stage.

● Check, if the IP value on the gauge is increasing.


Adjustment and TestingWith a stabilized IP, the IP working range for the V2 is 8,5-9,5 bar. A higher or lower IP is outside the specifications and thus not acceptable.

In case of problems with the intermediate pressure, see the troubleshooting table.
