General Instructions
Before using the regulator or any other
products for underwater diving, you
should attend a course held by qualified
instructors and obtain the relevant diving
certificate. The use of diving equipment by
non certified divers is dangerous and can
lead to serious accidents, or even death, to
the diver and his/her diving mates.
During the assembly and regulation of the
regulator, every step was taken to ensure
high reliability of the product in time.
These steps however may become ineffec-
tive if the regulator is not used correctly and
if adequate maintenance is not provided.
Seac Diving Pro s.r.l declines any liability
for any problem arising from non-compli-
ance with the instructions contained in
this handbook.
For any other problem, please contact your
dealer or directly Seac Diving Pro. Only la-
boratories authorized by Seac Diving Pro
may carry out repairs or maintenance.
Seac Diving Pro diving regulators are the
result of a research carried out in close co-
operation with many professional divers.
Their innovative features ensure a reliabi-
lity which remains unchanged even after a
long series of dives. At the same time, their
easy mechanics and operation allow an ex-
tremely simple maintenance.
If you are not experienced in the use of
this equipment, we strongly advise you to
get familiar with its operation during test
diving in shallow waters and under favora-
ble conditions; if needed, contact a quali-
fied instructor for a refresher course.
This diving regulator has been certified ac-
cording to standard EN 250: 2000 which
provides a long series of functional tests
up to a maximum depth of 50 meters and
at a temperature of 4 degrees centigrade
(test tolerance range -2°C/ +0°C).
Warning!
This diving regulator has been designed to be
used with normal atmospheric air complying
with the specifications of standard EN 12001.
Danger!
Do not use this or any other product of the
Seac Diving Pro line with other gases or oxy-
gen enriched air mixtures (usually known as
NITROX). Failure to follow this recommenda-
tion could cause serious accidents or even
death, due to fire or explosions, or seriously
damage your equipment.
Introduction Reference to European Standard EN 250: 2000
The Seac Diving Pro regulators described in
this handbook were tested and certified by
the notified testing body 0474 RINA, Genoa
office (Italy) in compliance with Directive
89/686/EEC of 21 December 1989.
Tests were carried out in compliance with stan-
dard EN 250: 2000, implementing the above Di-
rective, which defines the conditions of sale
and the essential safety requirements of Third-
Category Individual Protection devices (DPI).
CE marking means compliance with the essen-
tial health and safety requirements (Ann. II DE
89/686/EEC). Number 0474 near “CE“ identifies
the notified testing Body RINA in charge of pro-
duction control under Art. 11B DE 89/686/EEC.
The certification obtained for the DIAMOND,
DIAMOND ICE, and DIAMOND OCTO provides
possible use in both of the following categories:
Regulators for non-cold waters, having a
water temperature equal to or exceeding
+10° C
Regulators for cold waters, having a water
temperature lower than +10° C
In compliance with standard EN 250 : 2000,
waters are considered cold when their tem-
perature is lower than + 10° C.

DIAMOND /DIAMOND ICE REGULATORS
SECOND STAGE
Second stage with air balancing system which
reduces the initial breathing effort while pro-
viding a linear and constantly smooth breath-
ing. The system operation is based on a pneu-
matic piston working in close contact with the
spring, enabling the latter to work with a
lower load force (consequent light breathing)
ensuring a perfect seal of the air flow during
the breathing out phase.
By actuating the knob located on the left of the
regulator (see Figure A-B) you can regulate the
breathing softness according to your breathing
demand and to the diving conditions.
By rotating it anticlockwise you will get the
maximum breathing softness and by rotating
it clockwise you will gradually reach a stan-
dard breathing flow. This second stage conse-
quently allows individualizing the breathing
demand as a function of the dive require-
ments and type.
The operation is of the “Downstream” type.
This system allows for low air consumption by
reducing air waste, as it perfectly meets the
breathing demand.
This means that the air flow delivery is per-
fectly controlled by the diver’s breathing ac-
tion: a normal breathing action produces a
light air flow, while heavy breathing due to
fatigue or deep diving produces a free air
flow, also increased by the Venturi effect.
In addition, this system also provides safety
margins in case of first stage overpressure:
should the intermediate pressure supplied by
the first stage suddenly increase, the second
stage would continue to work, thus releasing
excess pressure and enabling the diver to
breathe.
The control of the DIVE and PRE-DIVE mecha-
nism allows to insert the Venturi effect. This
system is placed around the knob regulating
the breathing effort reduction system.
By actuating this mechanism placed to the
left of the second stage you can insert the
Venturi effect and consequently increase air
delivery.
By turning the lever towards the outside you
reach the “PRE-DIVE” position, while by turn-
ing the lever towards the diver you reach the
“DIVE” position. (see Figure C)
The “PRE-DIVE” position is recommended to
prevent accidental delivery when the regula-
tor is under pressure but not used, while the
“DIVE” position is recommended during the
dive.
Warning! Move the lever to “PRE-DIVE” only
when the regulator is not used, and rotate it
to “DIVE” before dive start.
The main body is made of synthetic resin,
which is highly resistant to impacts, abrasions,
ultraviolet rays and chemical agents. Di-
aphragms are made of medical grade silicone,
while nitrile rubber O-rings are of different
hardness (Shore) as a function of their appli-
cations. Chrome-plated brass and stainless
steel internal components. Black anallergic
silicone mouthpiece.
The nut placed on the hose end was especial-
ly designed with slightly marked lines for cos-
metic purposes, so as to give the Diamond
regulator a professional and captivating look.
The hose is of the standard type (770 mm
length and 3/8” thread).

This first stage combines very high performance
with an extremely compact and round shape.
Operation is ensured by a balanced di-
aphragm system which keeps a constant in-
termediate pressure with reference to both
tank pressure and depth. In addition, the di-
aphragm completely separates the regulator
core from the external environment, ensuring
total reliability over a long series of dives.
It is cast as a single block of copper-plated
brass, subsequently nickel- and chrome-plat-
ed. Internal components are in chrome-plated
brass with music-wire springs and nitrile-rub-
ber seals. Particular care was given to the sep-
arating diaphragm, made of a special rubber
which remains unchanged and is resistant to
low temperatures.
Four low-pressure ports, provided with 3/8”
thread, supply a constant pressure of 9.8 bars;
all ports are considered preferential, as they
are implemented on the same axis; in addi-
tion, two of them are positioned at 30° with
regard to the first stage body, so as to make
the correct bending of the valves inserted
easier; the most important components, such
as the main regulator (on the right) and the
jacket or dry diving suit hose (on the left),
shall be connected to these two ports.
In decentralized position there are two high-
pressure ports (one to the right and the other
to the left) with 7/16” thread and inner hole
having a 0.20 mm. diameter; a diving pres-
sure-gauge may be connected to these high-
pressure ports, to check the internal pressure
of the cylinder used, by means of a hose with
7/16” thread male connection.
Warning!
Use only CE certified pressure gauges provid-
ed with standard thread. Do not use any type
of adapter between the first stage and the
high pressure hose connection.
The DIAMOND first stage has been designed
to operate with cylinder working pressures up
to 300 bar. For pressure exceeding 230 bar it
is advisable to use the version provided with
the 300 bar thread connection (THREAD CON-
NECTION ISO 12209-2/3.2; 300 BAR) imple-
mented in our model DIAMOND ICE
The DIAMOND first stage is implemented in
the following versions:
International YOKE connection
(ISO 12209-1 230 BAR)
THREAD connection
(ISO 12209-2/3.5; 230 BAR)
DIAMOND ICE REGULATOR
FIRST STAGE
First stage has the same characteristics as the
DIAMOND version, but with the addition of
the innovative ANTIFREEZE DRY SYSTEM.
This system enables diving under extreme
temperature conditions, while keeping oper-
ating characteristics unchanged.
An antifreeze silicone separating diaphragm,
placed at the end of the first stage insulates
the regulator mechanics from the outside,
while transmitting through a simple and
functional mechanism, the water external
pressure needed for proper and constant bal-
ancing of the first stage under any pressure
and diving conditions.
This version is recommended for dives in cold
waters or mountain lakes where the water
may reach temperatures nearing zero.
The DIAMOND ICE version First stage is imple-
mented in the following versions:
International Yoke connection
(ISO 12209-1 230 BAR)
Thread connection
(ISO 12209-2/3.5; 230 BAR)
Thread connection
(ISO 12209-2/3.2; 300 BAR)
Warning!
To use the YOKE connection (ISO 12209-1 230
bar) or the THREAD connection (ISO 12209-
2/3.5; 230 bar), you must use a cylinder having
valves fitted with the relevant connections.
We recommend you to keep a common 8 mm
Allen wrench within reach, so that you may
operate on the valves, if needed, to obtain
the right connection. Please note that (the
300 bar THREAD connection) (ISO 12209-
2/3.2; 300 bar), only valves with the relevant
connection should be used.

BEFORE EACH DIVE
The regulator must always be transported
separately so as to prevent it from being in
contact with the other components of the
equipment or with other heavy or pointed
objects.
To assemble the regulator properly onto the
valves, proceed as follows:
When assembling a first stage with YOKE
connection, check the O-Ring embedded
in the valve; in case of THREAD connec-
tion, the O-ring is housed in the first stage.
The O-ring must be in perfect condition,
free from cuts or porosity; it is advisable to
have some spare ones, so that it may be re-
placed at once in case the above signs of
damage are detected.
 Check that all the hoses are properly con-
nected to the first stage and that they do
not show apparent signs of wear or damage.
Open the valve let out a small quantity of
compressed air, thus clearing the nozzle
from any foreign matter.
Remove the filter protection cap inserted
on the relevant connections.
 Check for filter integrity and proper cleaning.
Position the first stage on the valve and
start screwing it up using the knob, in case
of yoke connection, or the swivel screw, in
case of thread connection.
Slowly open the cylinder valve counter-
clockwise taking care to avoid violent and
sudden air flow through the regulator; at
the same time, it is recommended to let
out a breath of air from the second stage
by keeping the latter slightly depressed
warning!
do not carry out this operation if ambient
temperature is lower than +10°C.
Depress twice or three times the purge
button of the second stage to discharge
dust or foreign matter. Finally, breathe
from the second stage to make sure that
everything works properly.
warning!
Do not carry out this operation if ambient
temperature is lower than +10°C.
Check the cylinder internal pressure by
means of the appropriate pressure gauge.
In order to optimize the positioning of the
different valves, it is recommended to pla-
ce the main and secondary regulators on
the right hand side and the service valves
(pressure gauge hose, jacket hose, and dry
diving suit hose) on the left.
The valve must be fully open before dive
start.
When the regulator is not held in your
mouth at the time of plunging into the
water, it is advisable to submerge it com-
pletely to prevent air discharge due to its
high sensitivity.
The Octopus or the second safety regula-
tor should be used in PRE-DIVE position
and with the appropriate cap fitted on the
mouthpiece to prevent the entrance of fo-
reign matters or accidental air delivery.
Warning!
Do not rotate the first stage connected
with the cylinder with the system under
pressure.
DURING THE DIVE
When the regulator is not held in your
mouth, air self-delivery may occur. This in-
convenience may be easily eliminated by
rotating the regulator upside down while
checking that the same has been previou-
sly filled with water.
The use of suitable containers for mouth-
piece protection will prevent such inconve-
nience and will also provide a cover for the
passage inside the second stage, thus re-
moving the risks of sand and dirt introduc-
tion into it.
Check that the regulations placed on the
Diamond second stage are set in such a
way as to fully exploit the advantages pro-
vided.
AFTER EACH DIVE
AND PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Your regulator is made of very high-quality
materials and has undergone exhaustive sea-
water testing. However, every precaution
shall be taken in order to protect the equip-
ment from the corrosive action of salt.
Below is the procedure to be followed after
surfacing or on board at the end of the dive.
The first operation to be carried out after the
dive is to disassemble the equipment used.
Close the valve by turning it clockwise; di-
scharge all the residual air remaining in
the regulator system by actuating the se-
cond stage pushbutton.
This operation may require several se-
conds, as the air leaving the pressure gau-

DIAMOND OCTO
The technical specifications and the materials
used for the DIAMOND OCTO are the same as
for the second stage version assembled on
the above described DIAMOND and DIA-
MOND ICE regulators.
The only differences are in the color of the
shield which is yellow, especially designed for
easier identification in case of quick use, and in
the hose which is also yellow. The latter was es-
pecially made with a length of 1000 mm (3/8”
thread) for easier use in emergency conditions.
We recommend correct positioning of the DI-
AMOND OCTO to PRE-DIVE and with the air
flow regulation knob fully screwed up if it is
used as an auxiliary or emergency regulator.
The DIAMOND OCTO first stage assembly
shall be carried out by qualified or experi-
enced persons in order to optimize and en-
sure the functionality and safety require-
ments needed.
Use a common 4 mm Allen wrench to remove
the low pressure port closing cap (3/8” pitch)
then make sure that the O-ring is present, in-
serted and positioned in the hose over the rel-
evant thread. Screw up the hose with your fin-
gers until end stop, and then tighten the nut
with a 14 wrench without using excessive force.
Check for proper operation by putting the as-
sembled regulator under pressure before the
dive.
Warning!
For safety reasons you are recommended to
use the DIAMOND OCTO only on the DIA-
MOND, DIAMOND ICE and SORIUS first stages
having an intermediate pressure of 9.8 bar.
The use of the DIAMOND OCTO connected to
other first stages automatically makes the CE
Certification null and void, as the latter was
obtained with tests carried out with connec-
tion of the DIAMOND OCTO to Seac Diving
Pro First stages.
Failure to comply with this recommendation
may also cause malfunctioning of the second
stage and serious accidents may result.
Warning!
Do not use adapters for any reason with the
purpose of connecting the low pressure hose
and relevant second stage to the high pres-
sure port identified by letters HP. Low pres-
sure components were designed and imple-
mented to operate with pressures not
exceeding 20 bar. Failure to comply with this
warning may cause serious damage to per-
sons and equipment.
Be extremely careful when handling compo-
nents that are under pressure.

ge through the first stage shall pass throu-
gh a 0.20 dia. hole.
Unscrew the knob positioned on the yoke
or, in case of Thread connection system,
unscrew the threaded ring nut.
Lay the cylinder down to prevent it from
falling, positioning it in such a way that it
cannot roll in any direction.
Thoroughly clean and dry the first stage
filter and housing with a cloth or with a
soft compressed-air jet.
Repeat the same operation on the protec-
tion cap covering the filter.
Place the protection cap onto the filter
and fasten it by tightening the knob screw
or, in case of thread connection, screw up
the swivel-screw cap.
Rinse but do not immerse the regulator in
running fresh water taking care of all its
parts.
In this phase do not for any reason remo-
ve the first stage filter protection cap. Du-
ring this operation be extremely careful
not to press on the diaphragm, to avoid
water leaks into the first and second stage.
If you think you are not going to use the reg-
ulator for some weeks, again connect the reg-
ulator to a cylinder and, by depressing the
second stage pushbutton, cause continuous
delivery for about ten seconds. In this way all
the water is discharged and there is no risk of
scale deposits or evil taste.
The regulator shall be put to dry in a place
sheltered from the sun and dust, hanging
from the first stage yoke, so that the hose is
not bent.
At the end of a particularly intensive diving
season or, in any case, after a long period of in-
activity, it is advisable to give the equipment to
an authorized service centre for a complete
overhaul. Consequently, we advise you to con-
tact your dealer who will give you the best in-
formation on the quickest and safest ways for
carrying out the annual overhaul.
DIVING IN COLD WATER
Incorrect preparation for cold water diving
(less than +10 degrees centigrade) might
cause serious damage.
Before diving in cold water, you should follow
specific training under the supervision of spe-
cialized and qualified trainers in cold water
diving.
You must use specific regulators certified for
such conditions and closely follow the instruc-
tions contained in the relevant handbooks.
Though the risks of freezing are limited as far
as possible by continuous research, it is not
possible to prevent second stage freezing in
the most extreme conditions.
This could be the case when the water tem-
perature is below +4 degrees centigrade and
with external air temperatures is below zero).
Consequently, in order to prevent or reduce
any possible risks, adequate training is need-
ed to prevent the regulator from freezing.
In extreme conditions you should strictly ob-
serve the following guidelines:
1. Do not use the regulator out of the water
particularly when the external surface tem-
perature is below zero.
2. Never actuate the second stage discharge
pushbutton unless under water.
3. Try to limit as far as possible the time of rest
on the surface before diving.

Werfen wir also einen Blick auf die Regeln,
die zu beachten sind, nachdem der Tauch-
gang beendet ist und wir wieder an der Ober-
fläche oder auf dem Boot sind.
Als erstes ist nach einem Tauchgang das ge-
brauchte Gerät zu demontieren.
Schließen Sie das Ventil, indem Sie das
Handrad im Uhrzeigersinn drehen und las-
sen Sie die gesamte restliche Luft heraus,
die sich noch im System des Atemreglers
befindet, indem Sie auf den Duschknopf
der zweiten Stufe drücken.
Dieser Vorgang kann einige Sekunden
dauern, da die Luft, die aus dem Manome-
ter durch die erste Stufe austritt, durch ei-
ne Öffnung vom Durchmesser 0,20 entwei-
chen muß.
Die Bügelschraube am Bügel abschrauben,
oder im Fall des Gewindeanschlusses
(Thread Connection), den Schraubenring
abschrauben.
Legen Sie die Flasche hin, damit sie nicht
umfällt und achten Sie darauf, dass die Fla-
sche nach keiner Richtung wegrollen kann.
Den Filter der ersten Stufe und sein
Gehäuse sorgfältig säubern und abtrock-
nen, entweder mit einem Lappen oder mit
einem schwachen Strahl Pressluft.
Verfahren Sie ebenso mit dem Schutzver-
schluss, mit dem der Filter abgedeckt wer-
den muss.
Die Staubschutzkappe auf den Filter setzen
und mit der Bügelschraube blockieren,
bzw. im Falle des Gewindeanschlusses den
betreffenden Schraubdeckel aufschrauben.
Sorgfältig alle Teile des Atemreglers mit
Süßwasser abspülen, ohne das Gerät ganz
einzutauchen.
In dieser Phase darf auf keinen Fall die
Staubschutzkappe des Filters auf der er-
sten Stufe entfernt werden. Es ist sorgfäl-
tig darauf zu achten, dass kein Druck auf
die Membrane ausgeübt wird, um zu ver-
meiden, dass Wasser ins Innere der ersten
und der zweiten Stufe eindringt.
Wenn Sie, den Atemregler für einige Wochen
nicht benutzen, verbinden Sie ihn wieder mit
einer Flasche und, während Sie den Dusch-
knopf der zweiten Stufe drücken, führen Sie
für einige Sekunden einen Luft-Zufluß herbei.
Auf diese Weise werden alle Wasserreste aus-
geblasen und man vermeidet Kalkablagerun-
gen oder eine Geschmacksverschlechterung.
Der Atemregler wird zum Trocknen an einem
sonnen- und staubgeschützten Platz am Bü-
gel der ersten Stufe aufgehängt wobei der
Schlauch nicht geknickt werden soll.
Nach einer besonders intensiven Saison oder
auch nach einer langen Zeit, in dem das Gerät
nicht benutzt wurde, sollte das Gerät einer au-
torisierten Werkstatt zu einer kompletten Über-
holung, übergeben werden. Ihr Fachhändler
kann Ihnen kompetent Auskunft geben über
die schnellsten und sichersten Möglichkeiten,
die jährliche Überholung durchführen zu lassen.
TAUCHGÄNGE IN KALTEN GEWÄSSERN
Eine ungenügende technische Vorbereitung
auf Tauchgänge in kalten Gewässern (unter
+10°C ) kann schwerwiegende Folgen haben.
Vor Tauchgängen in kalten Gewässern ist eine
besondere Vorbereitung ratsam, die unter
Aufsicht von spezialisierten und qualifizierten
Tauchlehrern erfolgen sollte. Bei Tauchgän-
gen in kalten Gewässern sind weiterhin be-
sondere Atemregler und Zertifikationen not-
wendig. Außerdem sollten die Anweisungen
in den jeweiligen Bedienungsanleitungen ge-
nauestens befolgt werden.
Zwar wird durch andauernde Forschungsarbeit
in unseren Labors die Gefahr des Einfrierens
begrenzt, aber es ist nicht möglich, das Einfrie-
ren der zweiten Stufe in jeder Lage zu vermei-
den. Das gilt insbesondere, wenn der Tempera-
turunterschied zwischen der Oberfläche und
dem Wasser beträchtlich ist (wir sprechen hier
von Tauchgängen in kalten Gewässern mit
+2°C/ +4°C und Außentemperaturen weit unter
null Grad) . Auch der Atemregler DIAMOND
ICE könnte in besonders extremen Situationen
Symptome eines „Einfrierens» zeigen. In einer
solchen Situation könnte es sein, dass der
Atemregler nicht korrekt funktioniert. Das
kann auch schwere Schäden zur Folge haben.
Zur Vermeidung oder Verminderung potentiel-
ler Risiken ist deshalb eine entsprechende Vor-
bereitung notwendig, damit eventuelle Proble-
me , die durch einen Atemregler mit Anzeichen
des „Einfrierens» entstehen, vorab vermieden
oder beseitigt werden können.
In derartigen Situationen sollten folgende Re-
geln genauestens befolgt werden:
Die Benutzung des Atemreglers außerhalb
des Wassers ist zu vermeiden, besonders
wenn die Außentemperatur unter null
Grad liegt.
Den Duschknopf der zweiten Stufe nur
während des Tauchgangs verwenden.
Halten Sie sich vor dem Eintauchen nur so
kurz wie möglich an der Oberfläche auf.
