Dolphin breathing hoses

mortenkjerulff · 20th October 2005, 11:37

I find the Dräger Dolphin breathing hoses a bit too short, especially after I bought a backplate adaptor from V4tec , and have been looking around for alternatives. Unfortunately I have not found any, besides a "90 degree angle" adaptor from TecMe.

Does anyone know if you can fit longer hoses on the Dolphin?

Or have anyone tried the "90 degree angle" adaptor from TecMe (I am concerned that they point the breathing hoses into my back, and not over my shoulders)?

Kind regards

Morten

there are the straight adaptors also from tecme if you have your unit low on your back, personally i think the 90' adaptors are the best thing since sliced bread!

you can always cut the hoses and extend them...exspencive......or just have the unit slightly higher.
kindest regards john routley
