Boris Stripped- Ouroboros Build Up

Boris Stripped!
A Guided Tour of CCR Technology's Ouroboros
By Nad


In the most easy way, if you like details...buy a unit!

This is what you get when stripped down. Not completely of course, piping, solenoid, etc stay always in place. Every time during the assembling process, I have to check the O-rings.


The only tool I need is the one who help me to level the Sofnolime in canister: a small plastic barrel.

I begin with CL mounting. Quiet easy just screw them under the centre section, no possible to do it wrong - they have two different screws: one right one left.


Note the OPV facing down on the exhale CL. In case of damage, it is possible to repair the CL in the field.


In the centre, section there is the ADV (adjustable) and the four sensors row. Actually, I just have three of them. Note the particularity of the sensors groove: not possible for the moisture to stay there because of a little channel driving water out.

At the end of the dive, it could be possible to find some drops of moisture on the lower side of the center section.


To mount the centre section there are two little screws helping the process.


Then I have to screw in the two gas supply lines.


This is the canister. Note the S Wings: they improve the work of the filter. Now I fill the canister with the help of my only tool to level it:


Time to close it - simply mount the first cover with springs (for autopacking)


Then the second. Voilà!


Now I just have to assembling the canister, cover it with the dome and close the back shell


Hoses mounting - they are colour coded and have two different screws, like the CL.


Last but, of course, not least the 2 litre tank brackets, on each side.


OK, now Boris is ready for the pre-dive checks, with the help of the electronic and backup display.


Batteries? They are in the pod of the rear facing display!


At the end of the dive, I can download data, via IR from the Electronic POD


The End
