How can the Mantus Scuba Compressor be used?
The Mantus Scuba Compressor is designed to fill small scuba diving cylinders with breathable atmospheric air in a short amount of time. You can view the manual here.
Our compressor is designed to run continuously even in moderately hot weather, and water can be exchanged or ice-cooled to dump heat.
It runs on 110V at 60Hz, with a running draw of 1300W and peak startup draw of about 3600W.
A 220V version is also available with a short waitlist.
The marinized materials, light weight (84 lbs full 70 lbs empty) and compact footprint (15in W x 20in L x 19in H) allow for use of the compressor aboard boats. An acrylic fabric cover (like “sunbrella”) is now available through our Mantus store.
The Mantus Scuba Compressor is not designed for the use of nitrox or other technical diving gas blends.
The compressor is not approved for pairing with a hookah (snuba) system, and customers who choose to attach the compressor to a hookah system will be responsible for ensuring all safety requirements of the hookah system.
