TUSA RS1001 Regulator
The RS1001 combines the R1000 balanced diaphragm first stage with TUSA’s compact S0001 second stage. Its practical layout suits divers who want a straightforward personal regulator, with the connection and included components checked against the selected configuration.
Features and benefits
- Balanced diaphragm first stage. The balanced mechanism regulates the supply to the second stage as cylinder pressure falls, helping keep the breathing response consistent through the dive.
- Venturi control. The lever changes airflow assistance inside the second stage. Use the pre-dive setting for surface handling and the dive setting as directed in the manual.
- High-flow supply ports. The first stage provides dedicated high-flow low-pressure ports for the breathing hoses.
- Reversible hose entry. A qualified technician can set the second stage for left- or right-hand hose entry to match your equipment.
- First-stage cold-water insulation. The insulation system helps protect the first-stage mechanism against the cooling caused by gas expansion.
- Mouthpiece comfort. The shaped silicone mouthpiece supports a comfortable, secure hold without adding unnecessary bulk at the mouth.
- Compact composite case. The lightweight housing keeps the second stage manageable at the mouth.
Setup and compatibility
Care, rinsing and storage
After each dive, connect the assembled regulator to a scuba cylinder and open the valve to pressurise the system. Keep it pressurised while fully submerging the first stage, second stages and connected hoses in fresh water. This allows thorough cleaning of the exposed components and hoses while helping prevent water entering the internal air passages, where it can cause corrosion and damage. Keep the cylinder secure throughout cleaning.
For routine cleaning, Dive Gear Australia recommends Cressi Neoclean Wetsuit Wash Neoprene Cleaner 500 mL or Revivex Wetsuit Shampoo 10 oz to help remove salt, chlorine and everyday residue. Dilute according to the cleaner’s label, then rinse thoroughly with fresh water.
Keep the regulator pressurised throughout washing and rinsing. Lift it out of the water and dry the first stage and cylinder connection before closing the cylinder valve, releasing the pressure and disconnecting. Fit the clean, dry dust cap, then allow the regulator to dry in the shade. Store it with the hoses loosely curved, without sharp bends or tension.
Before each dive, inspect the mouthpiece, hoses and connections for wear or damage. Have your regulator serviced by an authorised TUSA technician at the interval specified in its manual, or sooner if it leaks, is damaged or its breathing performance changes. Leave internal adjustments and repairs to a qualified technician.
