  Richard Bull
Oceanaire Diving Services Ltd


We offer an equipment hire service for some of the more specialist equipment, as you may appreciate with years of experience in the industry we have a vast amount of equipment to facilitate underwater filming - some of it quite unique.
 

Below are details of a few of our hire items please get in touch for prices and advice on anything else.


LAMA Bubble Helmet

These are the only helmets where the entire head of the diver/presenter can be seen through 360 degrees. The Bubble Helmet can be operated with either self contained or surface supply apparatus and various communications systems can be added. The Bubble Helmet will only be hired to those whom we have trained to use it and it is mandatory that one of our supervisors/technicians accompany the Helmet when it is working.
RSL Lip Sync Mask This is an AGA Divator mask specially and extensively modified so that the underwater presenter can record a piece to camera with lip sync. The oral nasal assembly has been removed and a flat plate fitted so that the whole face is visible. A LAMA flushing mechanism takes care of carbon dioxide build up. We have a lot more information about this mask so please ask. It is mandatory that one of our supervisors/technicians accompany this mask when it is working.
 

 

AGA Divator II
This is one of the easiest and safest full face masks around. It can be fitted with a variety of communications so that the presenters voice can be recorded or so that the team are in voice communication with each other.


EXO 26
This is a bit of a halfway house between the lightweight AGA and the considerably heavier Kirby Morgan Band Masks and Helmets. It is quite easy to swim in it and it has a good “Commercial” look about it.
Bauer Junior Compressor
This compressor is new for 2005. The Bauer Junior is a lightweight petrol driven compressor that can deliver air up to 225 bar.We have chosen Bauer in preference to lower cost compressors because, by implication, a portable compressor is going to be used in remote locations where reliability is a priority. It is supplied with both “A” clamp and DIN adaptors.

Farallon Mk7-E DPV
There are many diver propulsion vehicles (DPVs or Underwater Scooters) around but many are little more than toys.
The Farallon is the real thing. Built to US Military Specification it is capable of XX knots and has a duration of XXX minutes. It can be used to transport personnel or a camera can be mounted on it for exciting POVs. The Farallon is visually exciting in its own right—every budding James Bond should have one! We have two.
