Regenerative CO2 Reduction System (Military)
During extended periods of operation, the living and working environment on a submarine can become contaminated with excessive amounts of carbon dioxide, exhaled during personnel respiration.
Compressing this contaminated air to fill diving bottles can consequently pose a serious problem for naval divers.
The regenerative CO2 reduction system from Parker domnick hunter can provide a continuous supply of high quality diving or emergency breathing air from a high pressure compressed air supply. The five stage filtration process can reduce CO2 levels from 10,000ppm (1%) to a safe level of less than 500ppm (0.05%).
Various safety features and overrides provide total security and protection, while an integral detection system is fitted as standard to monitor inlet and outlet air quality.
The system exceeds Royal Navy performance, shock and EMC test requirements and has been in service with the Royal Navy since 2000.
