BOB Howell ADV Purge Cover

KevDD · 26th September 2006, 10:41

Hello folks,

Last weekend the purge cover from my Bob Howell went MIA. Feck!

I've been cruising the web and it seems the internals of the adv are an Aqualung LPO but I'm wondering where I could pick up a purge cover for the ADV as I wouldn't want to go diving without one!

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Kevin.

the whole cover, diaphragm / assembly are also from the LPO as well as the valve & seat innards. LPO's are not available in the UK and you need to get one shipped from the states.

the cover holds on the ring and diaphragm, without it, you will likely loose the diaphragm and flood the loop.

Good tip on the flooding, I best keep it dry until i can get a hold of one.

Do you have any links to stores that could help me out?

Also, any alternative purge covers that would be great as I don't fancy waiting a life time before i can dive againg, usually shipping from the states takes ages.
