John build his own LAR rebreather using parts from RG/UFM and homebuild
parts.
january 2015
The unit has the same functional
princples. It is based on a demand system and can be bypassed
manually. For the oxygen addition the CL is mounted on a demand
regulator thas has been found in a scubapro second stage. To
prevent the counterlung form collapsing it is equipped with a
stainless spring. A nice and simple design.
The counterlung is made of plastic but
will be replaced by ortlieb waterbag of 10 liter.
Moutpiece and hoses are from DDR RG/UFM and the scrubber is made
in PVC
In the center you see the manual bypass. It is operated by
pressing the membrane.
The membrane and lever are build in a polyamid housing
(build by John)

This part is build very solid
