ouroboros swagelock fittings

ccscuba · 18th July 2006, 17:47

Hi everyone.
A while ago someone posted the details of the swagelock fittings for the ouroboros - it may have been on the forum but I can't get into that for some reason.

I need a spare diluent side swagelock fitting to go on a drop bottle - could anyone help with the part number or do I have to get it from Delta P?

thanks,

Martin

Be careful they are 'keyed'

The part numbers phil put up are not the same as the ones the factory uses.

Just got this lot delivered - spent a damn fortune!

Im using the larger SS-QC6-D-4PFK1-SC11 for my offboards But the original ones were QC4's. If you look on the connectors on your manual injectors you should be able to read the 'Key' number. I 'think' its 'Key 1' for the Dil, not sure what the O2 one is. You need to get the right key number as they dont inter-fit.

So likely the part number you need for male (stem) connector is

SS-QC4-D-4PFK1-SC11, but best confirm yourself.

SS = stainless
QC4 = is size
D = desco sealed
4PF = thread size/male/female (choose to match your hose fitting)
K(n) = Key size (choose to match those on your unit)
SC11 = O2 service (if using with O2)

To give you an idea of price Im paying 33 UKP each for larger QC6 ones

Id also recommend getting some protective caps. The stems are fragile and easily damaged the SS caps clip over them and keep them clean and safe - priced at 15UKP (for QC6 size)

Part number SS -QC4-SP-K1 (or whatever your Key number is)

SP = stem protector

For those of you that may be interested I have an excellent source for "unkeyed" Swagelok QC6's here in the US. This includes male and female connectors and protective caps. Typically the hose connections are either 1/4 inch NPT female or 1/4 inch male barb. The price is typically 10-12 USD per piece. I would be happy to send some over if people are interested.

This are the same connectors that are shown on my Golem BOV.

Dive Safe..

Stupid question: how do you then connect the QC to the LP hose. Is there an additional fitting needed on the hose size? I'd be interested in a couple, with an aim at fitting one to my bailout, dil hose, and my kiss BOV.

There are several ways to do it...

1) Via a barbed fitting on the QC you can insert it into a hose and clamp it with the appropreate ferrule.

2) There are adaptors avalible that will allow you to connect a 1/4 npt female connection to a second stage LP hose.

Dive Safe.

Mark, do you have a link?
I only found adapters to G1/8 thread but no 1/4NPT à la Swagelok.

Thank you.
