The Diluent Air bottle was
mounted because there was a need for escape apparatus from submarines at
50 meters depth. The compressed air as a diluent was used for the first
inflation of the counterlung in case the rescue started with empty
lungs. It seems that in 1911 is was already a well known fact at Draeger
that oxygen should not be breathed pure at depth greater than 20
mtrs.This 1912 model was equipped with pressure reducing valve and
dosisunit to create the first Draeger constant mass flow oxygen
lifesaver. |
