The G-2000SS is
definitely a Millennium helmet, designed to take
safe diving into the 21st Century. Its stainless
steel, light weight investment-casting makes this
helmet a one of a kind, space age technology piece
of equipment.
There is nothing else out there that
can compare.
The
G-2000SS was designed on "Solid Works - Three
Dimensional Software" and programmed for CNC
Machining. Its all-metal construction makes this
helmet easy to adapt and attach auxiliary equipment,
such as lights, camera, etc.
The front
port (window) is made from the strongest machinable
"Lexan" material for extra safety. The mounting
holes in the port are individually drilled through,
allowing the retaining bolts to pass through the
window itself, thus reducing the risk of the window
separating from the helmet in the event of a
hydrogen explosion during underwater cutting
operations.
The helmet has a unique retaining
system to lock the neck dam in place as well as
securing the helmet on the diver's neck.
The 2nd stage demand capability is
the best balanced, easiest breathing regulator in
the industry today. The POSEIDON CYCLON 5000 has
been tested and approved for depths up to 980 feet
of seawater. This regulator has been incorporated to
fit within the helmet, where it is fully protected
at the lower front portion of the nose area, which
is an integral part of the helmet shell. This
configuration allows for ready adaptation of a gas
reclaim valve assembly.
Our design does not require a side
block, which was replaced instead with a free flow
valve in line with the 2nd stage regulator.
The back mounted manifold contains a
screen/filter to prevent debris from getting into
the second stage, and the two check valve
assemblies, one for the main supply and the other
for the reserve backup air or gas supply. This
configuration allows for 5/16 ID tubing connection
between the manifold and the 2nd stage regulator to
be encapsulated inside the helmet.
The G-2000SS is a perfectly balanced
helmet that weighs in at approximately 29 lbs.
The helmet is uncomplicated and of
rugged construction which is easy to maintain.
All valves, regulators, parts, etc.
are industry standard brand names.
