SuperMask M-48
w/ Scuba Pod
The SuperMask M-48 is an innovative new design
in a full-face mask. It provides the diver with all the
comfort of a full-face mask with the convenience
of changeable second stage regulators as well as the
ability to use a snorkel without having to remove
the mask.
The mask is comprised of two major components,
the mask frame and the interchangeable lower pod.
The removable lower pod is a feature unique to the
SuperMask full-face mask. When diving, the pod is
easily removed and replaced on the mask, providing
the diver the capability to buddy-breathe, snorkel,
use an octopus or perform an "in water" gas switch.
With the pod sealed to the mask, the flexible, silicone
pod cover allows the diver to quickly place the regula-
tor mouthpiece into the mouth or dive with it free of
the mouth for communications. With the mouthpiece
in, the regulator may be used without the pod being
sealed to the mask.
The mask may also be used surface supplied when
used with the proper accessories. We are currently
developing several different pod configurations for
both open circuit and rebreather use. For further
information, see the Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQ) area on our web site at www.KirbyMorgan.

KMACS-5
w/ No Communications
KMACS-5
w/ Communications
The Kirby Morgan Air Control System-5 (KMACS)
is a lightweight, portable control box for use in sur-
face supplied air diving operations. The KMACS-5
controls the diver's air supply, communications and
monitors the diver's depth. It allows two divers clear
push-to-talk (two wire) or round robin (four wire)
communications. The KMACS-5 is also available
without communications.
The air supply can be either from a low-pressure
compressor or high-pressure cylinders. The adjust-
able first stage regulator reduces the high-pressure
air and supplies low pressure through the umbilical
to the diver's breathing system.
High pressure yokes permit U.S. standard scuba
cylinders or DIN equipped cylinders to be used. Low-
pressure air supply fittings allow for a compressor to
be used as the primary air source.
A complete pneumo system with dual reading gauges
(both US Standard and Metric) is provided for each
diver's air, as well as a shut-off/bleed system that uses
two high-pressure feed lines which allows changing
of used cylinders without interruption of the diving
operation. Optional shut off valves allow the isolation
of each diver's air supply.
The Communication Set is a multipurpose intercom-
munication system that provides reliable and clear
communications between a topside operator (tender)
and one or more surface-supported divers, recompres-
sion chambers, or other submersible systems.
