| Cylinders: |
Two 3-litre steel cylinders, one oxygen, one diluent (M25 x 2 cylinder thread, 3/4" NPSM - USA) |
| Depth Limits: |
40m - max. Depth with air diluent.
100m - max. Depth at which all rebreather parameters are proven: CO2 endurance, O2 control and work of breathing.
100m - the limit of the CE approval.
110m - max. Depth at which the work of breathing has been tested using Trimix diluent.
150m - max. Depth at which the work of breathing has been tested with an Heliox diluent.
160m - Depth at which all components are pressure tested during type approval (not during production).
WARNING! Diving deeper than 100m carries the following additional risks.
Deeper than 100m: CO2 endurance unknown.
Deeper than 100m: Onboard decompression invalid.
Deeper than 110m: Work of breathing with a Trimix diluent unknown.
Deeper than 130m: Depth gauge inaccurate.
Deeper than 150m: Work of breathing with an Heliox diluent unknown.
Deeper than 160m: Structural integrity of components unknown - the air cavity within the buzzer will implode eventually, and other components may fail. |

| Rebreather Operating Temperature Range:
|
+4°C to +32°C
Short term air storage (hours): -10°C to +50°C
Long term storage: +5°C to +20°C
The rebreather operating temperature range is determined at the cold end by the CO2 duration trials, which are done at 4°C(±1). Below this temperature the duration of the CO2 absorbent has not been empirically determined. If stored below 0°C the CO2 absorbent and electronics will need gentle pre-heating prior to use by placing in a warmer room or by submersing the assembled rebreather with mouthpiece closed (loop sealed) until the temperature of the equipment matches the ambient temperature. Below 0°C the liquid crystal display in the handset freezes to a solid black and is unusable. Water is an essential part of the CO2 absorption reactions (approx. 17% of Sofnolime is water), below freezing point the first reaction where CO2 and water react to form Carbonic acid cannot take place. If a pre-breathing method of warming the Sofnolime is used, this must be done on land under supervision. |
| Shelf life of oxygen cells: |
18 months |
| Shelf life of unused rebreather: |
When stored in accordance with BS3574 the shelf life is 7 years. (derived from the hoses and seals) |
