Burst disc for HP tanks

[fantasea]

Our staff has taken the PSI training course through PSI Instructor Corey Monahan. Corey has always been fair, open to debate, open to new ideas, and genuinely excited when something new comes his way. He bases his information on established standards, regulations, and a known events. To improve safety, knowledge, behavior and guidelines we provide for ourselves and others, we believe that the PSI training we received was an exceptional value, a thorough learning experience, very intuitive, and a valuable resource. For anyone who wishes to make further strives in improving their knowledge and safety when handling, storing and caring of their SCUBA cylinders, we fully endorse participating in a PSI training course – you can only come away with a better understanding and learn something valuable from it. Many of our staff will take PSI refresher training; we find that we can all learn something new, something updated, and something that may have been forgotten in the past.

FantaSea Scuba & Travel uses manufacturer proprietary burst disks assemblies in which the rated service pressure is stamped on the back of the burst disk retainer. Though we are no way experts on individual burst disc properties or other non-manufacturer recommended guidelines, so in pursuit of answers we try to turn to the experts.

We at FantaSea Scuba & Travel believe many answers for some of the more complicated issues on equipment and medical advice, can be easily obtained from industry experts like PSI, DAN (Divers Alert Network), DSAT (Diving Science and Technology) and a host of others. We hope that forums like this will encourage others to learn from the leaders in SCUBA and Freediving research and development for these important safety inquiries and advances.
