A breathable gas supply apparatus for connecting with a diving face mask or helmet. The gas supply apparatus is connectable with an inlet and outlet of a rebreather or reclaim unit for a first supply of breathable gas for closed-circuit use, and connectable with a second supply of breathable gas for open-circuit use. The apparatus includes: a first valve for sealing or opening supply from the rebreather or reclaim unit; a second valve for opening or sealing supply from the second supply of breathable gas; and a third valve capable of exhausting exhaled gas during open-circuit use and retaining exhaled gas during closed-circuit use. The apparatus is configured such that sealing of the first valve corresponds to opening of the second valve enabling switching between two sources of breathable gas without interruption in supply.
