Description

The Kirby Morgan® 97 is equipped with the advanced 455 Balanced Regulator — a high-performance, all stainless-steel unit designed to deliver exceptional breathing performance. This regulator is also compatible with multiple Kirby Morgan models, including the SL 27, 17C, KM 37, KM 37SS, KM 57 helmets, and the KMB 18 & 28 band masks, offering excellent versatility for commercial diving operations.

The KM 97 also features a quick-change communications module, available with either bare wire posts or a waterproof connector. This design allows for easy and efficient maintenance, and it’s the same reliable system used in most Kirby Morgan helmets (except the SL 17B and 17C).

Key benefits of the stainless-steel helmet include:

  • A highly durable helmet shell and components

  • No need for refinishing if scratched or gouged

  • Elimination of threaded inserts for securing the port retainer, enhancing reliability and ease of use

The KM 97 sets a new benchmark in performance, comfort, and durability for professional divers.
