The counterlungs on the Poseidon MKVI are designed to attach to the backpack straps and to
be moveable along the straps. An upper adjustable-length quick connect buckle anchors the
top end of the counterlungs to the gas processor (Figure 1-16). Three velcro straps on the
back of each counterlung (Figure 1-16) attach the counterlungs to the shoulder straps of the
backpack. The MKVI is provided with a lower D-ring and a crotch strap that connect to the
bottoms of each counterlung. Using this system the user can x the counterlungs as high or
low on the harness straps as desired to reduce the work of breathing.
