  • Divers Guide to Stoney Cove
    The Diver’s Guide to WELCOME TO STONEY COVE Over the last 50 years, Stoney Cove has been transformed from a flooded quarry into a state-of-the-art dive centre. Above the water, the Underwaterworld Centre and The Dive School now lead the World in scubadiving, while beneath the water it’s home to the largest inland shipwreck, The Stanegarth, and the oldest,The Gresham. From entry-level to expert diver, Stoney Cove provides a good, safe diving environment for all, at any time of the year and in almost any weather. The Stoney Cove Online Divers’ Guide is here to answer all your questions about the National Dive Centre, from advice on water visibility and wreck location to dive gear and probably the best bacon butty in Leicestershire. Dive safely! Stoney Cove l December 2012 l Fourth Edition THE HISTORICAL BIT Stoney Cove wasn’t always the UK’s number-one dive site. In the 1800s, Stoney Cove was a granite quarry, providing road-building materials for Isambard Kingdom Brunel et al. But there was a problem: spring water and lots of it. Pumps were used to prevent the quarry from flooding, but in 1958 this stopped and the quarry workings vanished beneath the water. Within five years the flooded quarry was already popular with local pioneers of diving and waterskiing. In 1963, the British Sub Aqua Club named Stoney Cove: The National Dive Centre. North Sea Oil had a great deal to do with how Stoney Cove developed. During the 1960s and 70s, the place was used to train commercial divers en route to the North Sea.

  • Guidance on Free Flow Regulators in Cold Water
    BRITISH DIVING SAFETY GROUP Guidance on Free Flow Regulators in Cold Water Fresh water sites can often be close to freezing, even outside the obvious winter period. This often poses the threat of a free flow. Incidents resulting from free flows cannot be completely avoided but they can be reduced if a few basic guidelines and procedures are followed. What can cause a free flow to occur? When air flowing from a diving cylinder is subjected to dramatic reductions in pressure (a change from 230 bar to around 10 bar) by the regulator first stage, it loses a lot of heat. If the surrounding water temperature is cold (around 5oC or less) this will reduce the temperature still further. The very cold air caused by such temperature drops in each stage of the regulator can cause any water droplets within the mechanism to form ice crystals, which in turn can cause a free-flow. Modern down-stream valves will freeze open rather than shut, but, if they freeze, a free-flow will always be the result. Divers are trained to manage free flow situations in basic dive training. Prevention Diving in conditions that are cold can increase the likelihood of a regulator free flow. Being prepared and anticipating this event will increase your chances of dealing with the incident in a safe and controlled manner. • Use a cold water environmentally sealed regulator. The most important consideration will be to have the regulator serviced regularly specifically for cold water. Many of the top regulators meet the European standard (EN250) for cold water.
