:: Hastrman DS
 Hastrman
DS takes the gas rebreathing/recycling to a completely
new level. Rebreather divers battle cry for maximum efficiency
was finally answered. All gases are being rebreathed
in Hastrman DS, the dry-suit based closed circuit rebreather
(DS CCR). As all Hastrman rebreathers, it can be fitted
with a scrubber and electronics configuration appropriate
for the mission requirements. |
| Here,
Hastrman DS is configured with a standard cave diving
rig, steel doubles, worn on divers back. The dilluent
is supplied from the back mounted tanks by the way of
an auto-add valve. The scrubber ("The
Pipe") and a 13cu. ft. oxygen tank are
waist mounted. Here, the O2 tank is mounted on divers
left side, The dry suit itself acts as a counter-lung.
Certain care must be taken in this configuration with
regard to the pre-dive diet. For example, beans, prunes
and aromatic cheeses are strongly contraindicated as
pre-dive nutrition, to avoid unexpected and violently
exothermic reactions inside the breathing loop. |
 |
| The
scrubber is fastened vertically to divers backplate.
It also can be relocated horizontally or vertically to
either side. The diver chose to use "The
Valve" DSV for this particular mission. |
