| From Rg-uf/m,…to Rgu-2,… And Beyond by Dan Dunfee FROM RG-UF/M,…TO RGU-2,… AND BEYOND

BACKGROUND
Many years ago, I routinely worked in rebreather (Rebreather) diving gear. In years after leaving the Navy my diving-associated work focused on developing some open circuit (OC), mixed-gas, SCUBA gear for light salvage and technical diving. However, in that period I built a couple of Oxygen-only (O2) rebreathers for inland cave and recreational diving. A few years ago I was re-infected by a rather bad case of rebreather-itis. … and you know how that goes….
I selected the old, East German, RG-UF/M (RGU) O2 rig as a simple, 'low-cost starter kit' to get re-involved with Rebreather's. The RGU has quite a following in Europe and Scandinavia, including substantial modifications for mixed-gas diving. The original RGU design had already benefited from much study, modification (modding) , and reporting-out by other homebuilders such as Dave Sutton, Ken Swain, and Tom Rose in the US… and George Kamarinos, Lothar Weidinger, Uwe Lessman, Martin Klokosch, and others elsewhere.
Several of these are chronicled in the following URL:
