I am planning on creating a hookah that can dive up to 3 meters (roughly 10 feet) deep. I know the compononets for the hookah except for the compressor, which for me sounds complicated.For safety reasons, the depth is only 3 meters (half the depth of SNUBA) and I am using an electric motor rather than gas. Another preassure condition faced at that depth, air emboilism is easily solved by these 3 things: Never Hold your breath, Ascend Slowly, and Breathe Normally. How does the compressor compress air? In order for to go 3 meters with that thing and be able to breathe, I must have the hose preassure at 19.1 psi (3 meters- 1.3 ATA x 14.7 surface psi = 19.1). Now what specific parts compress the air to a preassure higher than 1 atmosphere and how does the compression work? It's kind of complex
