Would someone email me or post a site with current specifications on dive tanks. The NSS sites are not current and non working.
Thanks

It apperars that the links here are out of date as well. We will get updated ones soon.
Check TDL (Tech Diving Limited). Joel has one of the most complete and current lists on his web site that I have seen anywhere.

Thanks! I should've tried that one myself before asking.
TDL has a great tank specification page (noted above).Originally Posted by Puttzer
Here's another tank specification link:

Chip the site you posted was the closest I could get to identifying this tank. Maybe some out there can help.

dot 3AA3000 88/9002/1004 M8308 Faber Italy 01A88+
Looking at the lay out you posted I see a tank that closely matches it but not quite. The tank weighs 261/2 pounds, I get 6 inches diameter. I measure 19 inches completely around it. What I copied off the tank is what I think is on it.
Sorry I forgot to put that it is 25 inches long and a steel tank

Sounds like it is the 550cu in

That sounds like a 9 liter Faber, that had a DOT approval.
Specs: 9 liter, 152 mm dia., 207 bar, 11.8 Kg.
Did you weight it without the valve?
