Single Oxygen Inflator with Solenoid Shutoff Valve (for BMCL)
RBV07A/SO/35S - Single Oxygen Inflator with Solenoid Shutoff Valve (for BMCL)
The Single Oxygen Inflator with GC3 (Flowstop) Shutoff Valve allows the Solenoid to be quickly and easily isolated on Inspiration rebreathers with back mounted counterlungs (BMCL).
This is useful when performing a diluent flush cell performance check - to prevent the solenoid from firing as the PO2 drops.
It is also useful in the very rare event that the solenoid fails open and needs to be isolated.
Kit includes:
Inflator unit
GC3R Flowstop* shutoff valve with RB70/25 locking strap
RB20/84 Flowstop to Solenoid 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 Oxygen 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 replacement LP Port Plug to fit to the oxygen first stage to replace the First Stage to Solenoid Hose which has been removed.
