HYLIX CM — Chest-Mount Closed Circuit Rebreather

HYLIX CM is designed for the diver who values clarity over ornamentation, reliability over redundancy for its own sake, and a system that becomes more intuitive the more you use it.

Active Drainage System

Liquid goes where it is designed to go—and leaves.

Unlike traditional designs that accumulate water in the loop and rely on manual or passive clearance, the HYLIX CM routes all liquids directly into a purpose-built drainage chamber. Once the internal level reaches a defined threshold, it is expelled automatically. The result is a drier loop, less maintenance friction, and more consistent performance across dives.

Patented Gas Delivery Module

Integrated ADV, MAV, and an 11-position oxygen needle valve.

The HYLIX CM consolidates the Automatic Diluent Valve, the Oxygen Manual Add Valve, and an 11-position oxygen needle valve into a single patented module. Fewer connection points, fewer failure pathways, and a gas management workflow that becomes second nature with use.

Axial Scrubber

2.2 kg capacity. Hydrodynamically optimized.

The axial scrubber holds 2.2 kg of absorbent. But capacity alone does not define efficiency. A specialized hydrodynamic design optimizes airflow distribution through the absorbent bed, improving CO₂ utilization efficiency and contributing to longer effective durations.

Low-Work-of-Breathing Loop

A short circuit that does not ask for effort.

HYLIX CM employs an exceptionally short breathing loop combined with fluid-dynamic tuning. The result is a notably low Work of Breathing—resistance that stays out of the way, even when the dive demands your attention elsewhere.

Purpose-Built Outer Case

Fully assembled. Integrated weights. 1000D CORDURA®.

The outer case is engineered around the fully assembled rebreather—not a collapsed or disassembled configuration. An integrated weight system supports trim, and the shell is constructed from 1000D × 1000D 64T CORDURA® military-grade nylon for durability in demanding environments.
