1 liter backup cylinder
filled with 200 bar.o The CMF will work to max 40 bar, therefore 160
liter gas is available. Since 8 min dive time is referred to the
flow will be 20 ltr/min.
Presuming the diver is @ 200 meter and using his emergency bailout
with a metabolic use of 1,5 liter of oxygen per minute the half
closed quotation gives a FiO2 of (20l/minx0,175)-1,5 / 20l/min – 1,5
= 0,108 % resulting of a 2,27 bar pO2 at depth. |

Important features:
-
Gas supply via umbilical located in diving bell
-
Mixed gas prepared in diving bell by means of the unit MVB (III)
-
Build in bailout
system consisting of: Pressure reducer - CMF valve - Mix gas
bottle of 1 liter\
-
Low breathing
resistance due to large diameter hoses
-
Scrubber with low
resistance for W.O.B and water lock
-
All parts are build
in the housing made of glass fibre, worn on the back
-
Separated inhale and
exhale counterlung, resulting in a cleaner scrubber bed.
-
Low resistance in
the water due to compact form and small measurements of the
unit.
-
Easy maintenance by
replaceable parts
