DIN 230 Female - M26x2 230 Male Nitrox Adapter

DIN 230 Female - M26x2 230 Male Adapter - SCUBATEC

The Scubatec adapter was created to resolve the incompatibility between cylinder valves or charging hoses with European Nitrox connections (M26x2) and standard DIN G5/8" components. It is an essential accessory for those who own equipment dedicated to oxygen or nitrox and need to interface it with standard charging systems or regulators.

Technical Specifications:

• Side A (DIN Connection): DIN 230 bar Female connection (G 5/8" internal thread). Accepts regulator terminals, charging hoses, or analyzers with standard DIN connections.
• Side B (M26 Connection): M26x2 230 bar Male connection (external thread). This is the specific connection introduced by European regulations to visually and mechanically distinguish equipment dedicated to oxygen-enriched gases.
• Material: High-strength marine brass with polished chrome plating. The construction is solid and designed for intensive use in technical environments.
• Gas Compatibility: Product suitable for use with Air, Nitrox, and Oxygen.

Common Applications:

• Cylinder Filling: Allows filling of cylinders with M26x2 valves (mandatory in some European countries for Nitrox/O2) using a normal DIN G5/8" charging hose.
• Mixture Analysis: Allows connecting an oxygen analyzer with a DIN connection to a Nitrox cylinder with an M26 valve.
• Regulator Use: Allows mounting a standard DIN regulator on a cylinder with an M26 valve.

Key Features:

• European Standard: Meets the needs of those who travel or operate in facilities (common in France and Germany) where the M26 standard is rigorously applied for oxygen management.
• Scubatec Reliability: Threads are manufactured with surgical precision to ensure a perfect seal without excessive effort during tightening.
• Compact Design: Minimal bulk to avoid creating excessive leverage on the valve or hose.

Technical Note: Although the adapter allows mechanical connection, it is the user's responsibility to ensure that the entire chain of equipment (hoses, cylinders, regulators) is properly cleaned for oxygen use (Oxygen Clean) when handling gases with O2 percentages greater than 21%.
