Single Diluent Inflator with ADV Shutoff Valve (for BMCL)
RBV07/SO/35S - Single Diluent Inflator with ADV Shutoff Valve (for BMCL)
The Single Diluent Inflator with GC3 (Flowstop) Shutoff Valve allows the ADV to be quickly and easily isolated on Inspiration rebreathers with back mounted counterlungs (BMCL).
It allows the ADV to be easily isolated after the initial descent, for example if the diver prefers to control the diluent manually during the middle section of the dive.
Kit includes:
Inflator unit
GC3R Flowstop* shutoff valve with RB70/25 locking strap
RB20/36 Flowstop to ADV Hose
AP35S low profile BMCL inlet elbow
*Please Note: as of January 2020 the GC3R features a chromed slider (shown above) rather than the original black slider
Upgrade for existing owners:
The Diluent Inflator with GC3 (Flowstop) can be retrofitted to all existing Inspirations with BMCL. The diver can use their existing hoses if they swap around the one feeding into the counterlung so that the knurled female connection end attaches to the new inflator block outlet and the 3/8th UNF male connector attaches to the new AP35S low profile inlet elbow (included) which replaces the current counterlung inlet elbow.
NOTE: You will also need a LP Port Plug to fit to the diluent manifold to replace the Manifold to ADV Hose which has been removed.
A single inflator with shut-off is also available for the Oxygen side as a Solenoid shutoff (see RBV07A/SO/35S) or with a double swivel diluent inflator block (see RBV07/DUAL/SO/35S).
