Flex CCR is robust, compact exploration rebreather. The unit was designed from the ground up as a sidemount CCR. It can also be used as a bail-out rebreather.

The Flex is a fully self-contained unit. Scrubber, electronics and counterlungs are all enclosed in a virtually indestructible cylinder about the size of AL80. Clip it on, plug in the diluent and oxygen gases and dive it. It can be easily donned or doffed underwater.

The plenum/scrubber can is located at the bottom of the unit. The plenum can is 14.5 inches/37cm tall with 5.5 lbs/ 2.5kg radial scrubber inside.

Flex has two 3D counterlungs contained in the fenestrated case above the can and sensor head with electronics. Each counterlung has 3 liters to ensure sufficient tidal volume.

Flex can be configured with either a BOV, DSV, or a special sidemount DSV. All mouthpieces use custom 90 degree bayonet hose adapters.

Flex CCR comes configured with an ADV (automated diluent valve) in the top lid of the unit. Diluent MAV (manual add valve) and Oxygen MAV facilitate on demand gas additions by diver.

Flex can be either ordered as a manually controlled unit (mCCR) with a constant mass flow (CMF) orifice, or electronically controlled unit (eCCR), with a solenoid.
