Another scuba question, this time about the cylinder valve.?
Those of you who read scuba questions regularly, know that I'm a newbie diver, and I'm hooked. I'm trying to learn all I can topside, so I read quite a bit.
I was never taught that the cylinder valve should be turned back 1/4 turn or a short way... in fact, in my confined water dives and the others that I've done since certification, I've never done that; I've just opened the valve.
My b/f says you should turn the valve back a bit, I've read it should be turned back in a tips booklet published by Scuba Diving magazine, yet on the Scuba Diving website, it says that the valve, once opened, should be turned back a bit or NOT AT ALL.
What is the correct procedure?
Thanks!
I'm getting conflicting reports here, guys... I'm diving on Sunday, so I'm going to ask my dive buddies what they do.
Open it fully (not hard) and back off 1/4 to 1/2 half turn. No more or you may cause turbulence in the 1 st stage (heat it doesn't need) and potentially causing condensation in there. Not a good thing for the reg and definitely bad news if you're diving a normal reg and even an environmental, in freezing conditions. It can also cause a possible a supply issue at depth, when you need it most. Leaving it fully open, could cause the valve to stick, making detaching the 1 st stage a vexing experience to say the least.
It is part of the course, you may have just missed it. I've seen Instructors whip through that part mumbling.
Edit: I disagree with Don on the fully open part regarding overheads etc. So NOT true nor taught in any wreck course or technical diving course. You ARE taught to know your manifold without the need to think. If indeed you do start to turn it the wrong way, the little it has been shut is an immediate indicator. Also, when it's backed off just that little bit from open full, it has NO impact on supply or smoothness of flow to the 1st stage.
Edit: Yup, ask your buddies, they'll agree. As for the fella that answered last...well I guess he's never seen one occur nor read even the OW manual from PADI ( I dug it out, it's in there.). It DOES happen. Just like that outdoor tap that you opened too far and need a wrench to close.
Due to the amount of dive related questions that are popping up, this evening during a social at the local pub, I asked a pal of mine that owns a 5 star Padi to join under his shop's name. A number of years ago, this man saved my life on a wreck dive, and he's about to become a PADI Director. That's about as high as you get in that particular org as well as standing in my book. I'm not an instructor ( I got bugged again to do the course tonight for free), hence my reluctance to put the word of "god" into some of my answers here. Mine is strictly advice and experience.
He can. Hopefully he'll join.
If you're curious, his shop's web site is www.coltcreekdiving.com
heck, I think there may be a pic or two of me in there too.
Young and old are fascinated by underwater dwellers. It is fun to watch how fishes swim and glide or how reefs breathe like it has pumping hearts. You will be amazed by how these creatures come together and swim in one direction or how they immediately drifts apart whenever a huge sea creature instantly appears.
You will not definitely experience the fun and adventure of how underwater creatures find solace and enjoyment in their habitat if you will just watch them on television or see it through the pages of a magazine. You need to go out and see them. One way seeing them is to visit aquarium centers. Here are some aquarium centers that might be helpful on your next trip:
