What are considerations(generally speaking) that should be given when taking modified recreational SCRs beyond their stated max depth limit, not addressing any particular rebreather, per say. Say, taking a modified rig to 200'+, does this increased depth have any effect on the standard plumbing that comes with most rec rigs, etc. User would obviously have taking into account necessary breathing loop dynamics to account for ppO2, etc. Do the more depth capable CCR units have any particular hardware differences that allow for expanded depth useage. Also, what considerations should be given to scrubber duration(generally speaking once again) when using with increased depth being the only variable? Just looking for some inputs before I take my Azimuth(constant manual CCR) deeper than 150'.
Thanks!
