oxygen

Hello, I have a technical question regarding the mechanism through which Oxygen helps with DCS symptoms. I am aware that it is an effective treatment, but I'm not clear on what actually happens inside the body as the Oxygen is breathed to help dissolve gas bubbles in the tissues. What are the...

question for the masses...I have access to a compressor so air fills for me are accessible 24/7. That being said I want to go out and buy my own O2 tank so I can partial pressure blend my own nitrox. What is the cost of a just say 200 or 300 medical grade O2 tank? Trying to see if it’s cost...

I can't seem to find any info on the subject for analyzers, most are recommendation for rebreathers. I am doing a project on an Arduino based O2 analyzer. I would like to know if there is a cutoff voltage value (in air) for the sensor to be considered "bad" and lose its linearity significantly...

Hi all, Have anybody experience with use Suunto Tank POD with 100% O2? Can I use POD for decompresion stage? Thanks in advance for answers.

I have an Al 80 cylinder that has approx 1000 psi of 100% O2. I used it as a dedicated cylinder, but really no longer have a need for it. If I do get back to where I need a dedicated cylinder, it will be a smaller one! I'd like to use it for regular air or nitrox. However, I've been unable to...

Hi, I can't seem to find any thread already started on this so I will ask what may be a stupid question which has potentially already been answered. I am looking to purchase myself a dedicated O2 regulator for accelerated deco, I was thinking of something simple and with the least failure...

We use 3 DAN oxygen kits, but over the years have had problems with the '2nd stage' on the oxygen regulator corroding due to salt exposure. This is clearly a ridiculous design for dive equipment as even with frequent cleaning some salt exposure is inevitable in daily dive use. Does anyone know...

Fixed System Complete mixed gas fill system. Compressor and all items have been sitting unused in covered garage since 2004. Dust and surface corrosion has effected appearance. New compressor has test hours only. All plumbing and filters were pressurized when disassembled in 2015. All bottles...

I have two questions about tanks: 1) Someone told me, it is not good to store cylinders fully pressurized for prolonged periods, as afterwards they may fail to pass the hydrostatic tests. Is that true? How serious? What would be then an acceptable pressure? 2) Why was I taught in the courses...

Does anyone know if the Multifunction Regulators sold with DAN Oxygen units can be converted to work with a DIN valve? It would involve removal of the yoke or CGA-540 fitting from the regulator body, and replacement with a male DIN fitting. DIN fittings with 1/4" NPTM are common. If anybody...
