Speciaal ontworpen voor het
ontsnappen uit onderzeeërs. De IDA-59 was het antwoord aan de bemanning
van Russische onderzeeërs die zich ernstig zorgen maakte over de
duikdieptes die in deze jaren konden worden bereikt. De rebreather is
ontworpen als een borst gedragen model. Het perfecte ontwerp heeft zich
in de praktijk bewezen toen de bemanning van de Komsomolets zich vanaf
een diepte van 600 (!) meter met deze rebreather zich wisten te redden.
Het toestel is niet alleen gebruikt voor het ontsnappen uit de
commandotoren maar ook uit de torpedobuizen. Het toestel kan zowel als
zuurstofrebreather en als trimix SC rebreather worden ingezet.
At the left on a photo the
general view of the device IDA-59, and on the right way of accommodation
on a body is represented.
The device IDA-59 was accepted
on arms in 1960. It is intended for use by crews of submarines as for
realization of simple diving works as well as for rescue in emergencies.
In the latter case device allows to carry out(spend) stops for
decompression due to an opportunity of change of a gas mix. The device
consists from tank in capacity 1 litre with a mix heliox under pressure
250 bar. And one more of tank containing oxygen, box of an absorber,
respiratory bag, oxygen device of submission of gas. At rise on a
surface the respiratory bag is inflated and is used as a saving
waistcoat.
With the help of this device the
crews of submarines left from depths up to 300 meters.
