Update: Triple cell Oxymeter 28-01-2007
 

Jean Michel Rebuilt his Dolphin to a full KISS style CCR. Please check his system and enjoy the UW photo's!

Here is my Dolphin , the general configuration is the same but I use a fiberglass shell that make it possible to use a double 40lt wing and classic harness and back plate

 

There you can see my kiss O2 dosage device , 2 mp hoses are connected to a fixed mp regulator, one on which I put a Scubapro BC inflator as a demand valve, the second containing in line a 7 micros Swagelock filter and a Norgren 0.004 inch orifice taped and pushed in the hose . This simple dosage device makes it possible to use one regulator for de demand valve (a depth compensated one) and the fixed MP regulator to feed the orifice, this configuration makes it possible to inject O2 deeper the mp pressure equivalent depth.

This picture shows the twin hoses with on the right a double sensor holder made of a PVC croce and 2 unions (to remove the holder and rince), and on the left a PVC pipe used to equalize the 2 hoses length, the oxymeter housing (home made) and the back plate and harness are also visible.
