Why Dive an IDM?

ENABLES NOSE BREATHING

  • Experience natural breathing

JAW FATIGUE

  • Nothing to bite on
  • Frees mouth to communicate, drink

FOGGING

  • No fogging thanks to the air circulation system
  • No product treatment needed

MASK PRESSURE

  • Automatic pressure equalization at each inspiration thanks to the integrated breathing apparatus

FLOODING

  • Breathing inside the mask automatically purges water through the draining/exhalation valve. When voluntarily flooding the mask, a couple purges of the second stage button completely clear the water from the mask

REGULATION CHARACTERISTICS

Pneumatically balanced second stage provides consistent ease of breath at any tank pressure
Adjustment knob provides the diver with the requested amount of air flow under all circumstances
Dive/pre dive lever (Venturi) helps avoid surface free flow in harsh conditions
CE certification in accordance with 89/686/CEE directives under UNI EN250 standard rules for underwater activities, including low temperatures (<50°F or <10°C)

3D EQUALIZATION SYSTEM

  • Patented design
  • 3 way directional adjustment system: up/down, wide/narrow, close/far. Made for maximum comfort and nose breathing
  • Pushing the mask towards the face when needed causes the plugs to create a nasal seal

AIR CIRCULATION

  • Air circulation is achieved with an orinasal pocket so that CO2 build-up is not mixed with fresh air.
  • One-way circulation keeps mask clear.

SURFACE AIR VALVE

  • Easy to grab, sturdy design
  • Large air vents
  • Allows IDM divers to breath ambient air when at the surface

DIRECTIONAL EXHAUST & DRAINING VALVE

  • Large, one way valves drain any water and air in the mask during exhalation
  • Purging the regulator will drain water even faster
  • Directional exhaust valve orients the bubbles away when needed
  • Position options are left, right, both sides and closed

FACE SEAL

  • Patented bellows double “S”, “spring profile”, skirt
  • Larger sealing surface
  • More comfort thanks to the “floating effect” on theface
  • Available in 2 sizes
  • Seal capability derived from gas mask applications (CBRN tests) – the hardest test possible a face seal has to
    withstand

FIELD OF VISION

  • Larger field of vision than competitors (italcert Certification
    PPE-05 Rif 1332/05)
  • Visible light transfer of the visor is 92%, meaning a clearer view
  • Designed wider and sits closer to the face than other visors, giving a broader field of vision and less volume buoyancy

DURABILITY AND SCRATCH RESISTANCE

  • Transparen polycarbonate visor made in Italy
  • Both sides are coated in siloxane resin for improved scratch and chemical resistance
  • Impact resistance tested by STANAG 4296 standards: impact of a steel ball traveling at 540 kph (335 mph)

HEAD HARNESS AND FAST ROTATING BUCKLE II

  • Head harness attached to the face shield not on the skirt meaning no tearing and much better resistance to
    tugging
  • Six straps meaning no risk of losing reg if unconscious or violently hit
  • Wide strap tips for easy grasping
  • Fast rotating buckle system for comfortable and quick doffing and donning on the surface and secure, fast operations during underwater bail out or wearing
