  • The 455 Balanced Regulator
    The 455 Balanced regulator sets a milestone in surface supplied breathing performance and will soon be compatible with all Kirby Morgan Helmets and Band Masks that feature the SuperFlow® 350 regulator. The regulator body is made of 316 stainless steel, as are all its other metallic components.

    The air train diffuses incoming breathing air/gas onto the face port/lens to defog and ventilate.

  • Emergency (EGS) Valve
    Emergency (EGS) Valve supplies backup breathing gas to the diver. This valve is an integral, built in part of the stainless steel sideblock.
  • Gas Supply Non-Return Valve

5 of 5 KM 97-Working mans hat! March 21, 2017
Reviewer: Edward from Gulf of Mexico  
I purchased this hat with the new 455 Balanced Regulator. Coming from a salty company where we primarily dive the KM SL27 it was very hard to trust any other hat. But this KM 97 is fantastic. The ease of breathing is so substantial that diving long hours on our offshore rigs is nothing to tread about now. Only complaint is that it's a little front end heavy compared to the Superflow 350. But small price to pay for quality!
