Mystery HP seat

Thu May 04, 2006 7:20 pm

The one in the middle is a NOS DA seat.....The ones on either side of it are not.....Any ideas what regulators they may be for ?

That looks like alternate seats for the DA Aqua Master; as in copies with the same fit and function characteristics. Could they have been made by Voit or by a USD subcontractor at some point in time?

I think I have seen the one in the left with the raised seat area, but it was over 30 years ago.

I thought the same as you at 1st Luis....Till I sent one of these seats to a customer thinking it was a DA seat and THEY told me that it would not fit in their DA....I then tried them myself and the customer was right. The OD of the square will not allow it to go in ANY DA nozzle that I had......I sure hope we can find out what they go to as there could be some regulators that are not in service that need one of these seats!
