Universal Dive Surface Valve / Open Circuit regulator (BOV) for rebreathers with threaded hose attachments (clamp hose to nipple/nut assembly and thread onto the BOV).
The Golem Vario BOVcan be configured with P-port to fit Draeger Panorama Nova R full face mask (sold separately) or with a standard mouthpiece.
Switch between P-port and mouthpiece takes about 1 minute.
The 2nd stage regulator can be removed and blanked to create compact hi-performing DSV.
The BOV uses a ball valve for superior isolation and one-handed switching between CC and OC.
One-way valves use standard Apeks exhaust flapper valves
OC second stage uses all Apeks parts and Interspiro diaphragm for high performance and easy servicing.
One-way valves are interchangeable for left-to-right or right-to-left gas flow.
Hoses are attached directly to the BOV body.
Clamps to hoses with 40mm diameter cuff (i.e. Inspiration, Kiss, Optima, Ouroboros, Prism)
Select the P-ported version or mouthpiece version below (other item sold separately).
There are two types of threaded BOV:
one uses Trapezoid threads (hard to crossthread) between the BOV and hose nuts, so it will NOT thread into the Inspiration hose nut. You have to unclamp the hose and clamp it on our nut. Used with KISS, Prism, Optima, Ouroboros and many other CCRs and SCRs
the other comes with the Inspiration thread that will screw directly on the Inspiration hose nuts.
