Survival Guide To Rebreather Diving

[Paul Haynes]

For anyone diving rebreathers or thinking of rebreather diving, here is a link to a paper I wrote a few years back titled A Survival Guide To Rebreather Diving, available from the downloads section of my business website: http://www.haynesmarine.co.uk/images/stories/A Survival Guide To Rebreather Diving Nov 2011.pdf

I got there... it was a good read. A couple of points were def worth mentioning, and I liked the "aviate, navigate and then communicate" order of business.

I'm on an iphone... And I'm lazy. If the button push link don't work, that's about all the effort I'm up for.

Overall a decent read. The only thing I found missing,.. which was kind of discussed in the linearity testing, but fell a little short, is the need to also test the O2 sensors for current limitation. I have had sensors straight out of the package that were bad, but didn't show until put under pressure & unable to come to the requested PO2, causing a potential constant firing of the O2 solenoid (Mine is an eCCR), leaving the potential for hyperoxia. Among the topics discussed, current limitation was also a big part of my training.
