Unique regulator

[CG-45.com]

Hello everyone!
I got a very strange regulator. It is made ​​in Brazil. It looks like the VIKING / NORSEMAN regulator. I'll try to get the records in the Brazilian Patent Office. The label is written "ESCAFANDRO AUTÔNOMO" (SCAPHANDRE AUTONOME in french), the number of patent - 100411 and name DELTA.
I put new hoses...
I have never seen this regulator before! Asap I get more informations I post here.

Some pictures:

Adair,

I have never seen anything like it either. I'd put the date at somewhere in the early 1950s, but it may be even before that. Keep us informed of any information you have on it.

Thanks,

John

EGADS: I totally glossed over how it attaches to the manifold! So is this reg 1500-psig?!?!?!?!

Cool! And how does the exhaust work? Both hoses seem to terminate at the same part of the regulator. Reminds me of the original HW SCUBA. More photos and info please
Good find. That label reminds me of a grill from an old truck. I love the way that looks!
