Abstract
The body (1) of the valve has two outlets (71, 72) whose axes (S1, S2) are offset in the direction of the axis (A) of the mounting base (2) by a distance (d) greater than 5 mm, typically comprised between 20 and 60 mm, the spacing (e) between the outlet axes being greater than 60 mm and typically less than 130 mm. This arrangement permits avoiding problems of positioning and collision between the upstream circuitry connected to the outlets 71 and 72 in the use configuration of the valve on a dive tank.
