Where to buy

The Triton CCR is something a little different. It is a chest-mounted mechanical CCR produced by M3S in France. Its manufacturers have given this unusual unit a trial by fire in French cave systems and it’s the first MCCR to receive CE ratings for a depth of 100 meters with Trimix.

We think the Triton would be excellent in high-current environments and when jumping off skiffs. It should also have decent work of breathing because it’s on the chest and the hydrostatic pressure is much lower. Another application would be using this tiny unit as a bail-out device on deeper, very technical dives. At a weight of just 7 kg (without tanks or lime), it’s flight path ready too.
