Diving bottle Steel 10 Liter 232 bar DIR Double set with stainless steel bands and isolation manifold

10 liter steel bottle 232 bar DIR double set with stainless steel band

A 10 liter double set at 232 bar belongs to the smaller double sets. It gives almost the same dive time as a 12 liter double set. but is easier to lug around on land. It is equipped with isolation manifold and DIR style stainless steel bands. This makes the kit suitable for technical diving.

10 liter bottles are a very common size in Denmark. The 10 liters refers to the "amount of milk that could be in the diving bottle if it was a milk boy :)" and the 171 mm is how wide the bottle is in diameter.

Virtually all bottles in 10 liters and 171 mm are also approved to be filled with 232 bar, which in this case is 2320 liters of free air. If you use the bottles for a double set, just multiply the number by two.

Since the bottles have a round bottom, a foot must be used for the bottle to stand.

Who can use this type of diving bottle?

A 171mm, 10 liter double set is best for you who are shorter than 175cm to set a guideline somewhere. Of course, this does not mean that you cannot use it if you are taller, but most divers will find that such a double set on a diver over 185 cm will feel like an unbalanced weight on the back. If you are over 185cm, a double set with a 12 liter bottle of 117mm will give you a better balance in the water. If you are between 175 - 185 cm, you should consider whether you want a little more air or a double set that is easier to carry around.

One ​​of the most common questions from our customers is how long you can dive with such a double set, and the correct answer is that it depends on many factors, such as depth, breathing rate, how relaxed you are, etc. Our normal answer is that if you are not that tall, then you can advantageously buy this 10 liter double set because it still provides a good safety margin on dives to + 25 metres.

Sensible additions

Many people buy the bottle net because it gives the bottle extra protection against scratches (net) when you have to fill it or transport it around the diving site.

Since this double set has bottles with round bottoms, it may be advantageous to buy a stand so that the bottles can stand.

In both cases, you should rinse the bottle often so that it does not rust at the bottom.

We can supply virtually all kinds of valves, so if you don't find the product you want, just ask.
