hello all,

are tests on rebreathers for CE or other ... done on breathing simulators, or on combined breathing/metabolic simulators..

I was reading on the ANSTI page, they use a breathing simulator where they can inject CO2 at whatever rate they want, this is ok for testing a scrubber, but not for testing PPO2 in a mCCR at different work-levels

that testing is only possible when you 'extract' oxigen from the loop at a certain rate, and injecting CO2 at the same time to test the scrubbers, this means you need a combined breathing/metabolic simulator.

who can explain me how they do it??

regards
paul
