Content: An alternate second stage LP hose is usually longer for ease of use by another diver if needed. Console with Submersible Pressure Gauge
The Submersible Pressure Gauge (SPG) allows the diver to check how much air they have left in their tank to make sure they don’t just run out of air underwater. A high pressure (HP) hose connects this pressure gauge to the first stage in the regulator. This hose sends HP air directly from the tank to the gauge. The gauge console also houses other useful gauges, such as a dive computer, depth gauge or compass. Low Pressure Inflator Hose
The buoyancy compensator (BC) inflator is fed intermediate pressure air from the regulator first stage through this LP inflator hose. This gives the diver the opportunity to add air to their BC directly from tank when they want to. Where the low-pressure inflator hose attaches to the buoyancy compensator inflation mechanism, a sleeve is used. This metallic sleeve needs to be held back when connecting the hose to the BC inflator. They are usually textured for easier grip in the water.
