Azimuth electronics

A while back there where some companies testing some electronics for the standard Azimuth, has there been any development in any of these electronic units? Does anybody out there have a electronics unit for the Azimuth?

I don't think that OMG make any eletronics thus far for the Azzimuth. I did a course at the factory this summer and they werent in production then.

The only two electronically controlled OMG rebreather I'm aware of are the Nemesis and the Castoro Explorer, both prototypes afaik.

The Nemsis had OMG electronics, was a dorsal mounted unit and shared several bits with the Azimuth. I don't know the status of the project.

The Nemesis prototype took center stage at their booth in 2003

The O2 tank is inside the case, the diluent softmounted below

The display was machined from aluminum and combined digital display and 5 LEDs for setpoint monitoring. Three buttons on top controlled the electronics.

The black box mounted, oddly enough, in the lid of the case contained the electronics and custom battery pack.

Another OMG eCCR was shown at OzTek in Australia. One of two prototypes (the other being the manually controlled Castoro Abyss), the Castoro Explorer is loosely based around the frontmounted O2 CCR. Reversed gas flow through the scrubber, front mounted O2 tank and rear mounted diluent (like the Nemesis). The unit shown had the Hydrospace setpoint controller installed. Pawel is the guy to fill you in on that unit, maybe even other OMGs.

Other aftermarket electronics could be adapted too, like the HH (for MK15 - comes with an electronics box).

OMG was producing an ECCR, money was taken from buyers, however they were paid to return all deposits and produce the unit for the Military (I wasn't told which one). There plans for an ECCR is unclear at this time.

Hi Stefan,

I'm always amazed by the number of pictures and technical information you have!!!!

Very nice pictures of the Nemesis.

Cheers
