[PSUBS-MAILIST] onboard gear

Free diving / breath hold diving does not subject the diver to the same risks, because the total oxygen content in the free diver's lungs is limited to the surface contents at first submersion. SCUBA and surface supplied divers breathe additional gas under pressure, so despite having the same PPO2 at depth, the toxicity potential of a lung full of air is much greater when you are inhaling large quantities of it at the ambient pressure at depth.

218 fsw is the limit for air based on oxygen toxicity alone, though this is typically contraindicated on SCUBA due to the narcotic potential. Oxygen limits for a diver in the water (surface-oriented diving) are typically 1.6 ATM for decompression / recommended maximum, though a maximum of 1.2 to 1.4 is typical for planned bottom / working phases of the dive, and this is typically reduced as the dives get longer in order to reduce total cumulative exposure. 0.4 is the maximum that can be tolerated indefinitely, so that or less is used in saturation operations. Higher PPO2s can be tolerated in a gas space, so accelerated decompression in habitats or chambers can expose a diver to higher oxygen levels than can be tolerated in the water, due to the vertical pressure differential across the lungs.

Obviously a planned SCUBA dive to 300 fsw would employ different gases than you might use for submarine escape from that same depth, because cumulative exposure is a non issue when you're just locking out and rocketing to the surface. You would want to max out your PPO2 at 1.6 for escape, instead of planning about 1.2 for a bottom gas that might be appropriate for a dive, since the duration of that 1.6 will be minimal during an escape. Similarly, a SCUBA dive to that depth might employ 21/35, 35/25, 50/0 and 100/0 as decompression gases, requiring gas switches on the ascent. In an escape scenario, you can't easily switch gases, but it's almost a moot point because the exposure time is limited, and ascent rate / profile is well outside the bounds of any reasonable planned dive.

A submarine escape from that depth is essentially making a conscious decision to choose decompression sickness over drowning or asphyxiation in the cabin atmosphere in the disabled vessel.

> As a rebreather and technical diver and gas blending technician I feel qualified to comment on this.
> Heliox 16 would be a poor choice due to expense and O2 content that is borderline at the surface. It would be toxic at 350 ft depth when inspired under ambient pressure and could produce a seizure without warning.
> Most deep divers would use a trimix gas of nitrogen , oxygen and helium in varying percentages to sustain life and avoid narcosis. It would have to be tailored specifically for the maximum depth as well as take into consideration your intended purpose of breathing it to the surface.
> The trouble is that oxygen becomes toxic when breathed at elevated partial pressures and the first warning of this could be a seizure. Generally these are not survivable when submerged on scuba. Cause of death is inevitably drowning.
> Without getting too deep into the gas laws governing this,  what this means to you is that for dives of this depth one gas mix is not sufficient. For example a safe oxygen mix at 350ft would contain 13% oxygen or less. The problem arises when ascending to the surface because 13% oxygen will produce unconsciousness there. This is because of the reduced partial pressure from lower ambient pressure which affects the ability to transport oxygen into the body..
> In the technical diving world we cross this bridge in one of two ways.
> 1) using separate cylinders of gas for different phases of the dive... ie travel mix and bottom mix (deco mix also but this would be irrelevant to this discussion)
> 2) using a closed circuit rebreather which blends the gas on- the-fly to maintain optimal oxygen partial pressure for the depth. These are very expensive and require far more training than open circuit scuba.
> I don't have an easy solution to your problem,  but can say that when escaping from that depth, you cannot safely use the same breathing gas without exposing yourself to extreme risk of drowning.
> 16 percent oxygen is considered the minimum  to sustain life at the surface and can be used safely to a depth of 297 fsw (or 10 atmospheres.)
> An acceptable level of narcosis would be achieved by augmenting this with 57% helium, leaving the balance as nitrogen (27%)
> The narcosis benchmark used would be an 80 ft depth equivalent exposure using air.
> Realistically 300ft is the deepest you would want to go with one gas, and even that is not ideal. Beyond that all bets are off.
> Something else to consider is that in a bailout situation, your ambient breathing air inside the sub could become toxic as pressure inside is increased to equalize to ambient pressure. You would need to be breathing your escape gas at that point.  Compressed air becomes toxic at a depth of approximately 218 ft.

Imagine you had a little ball valve of about the diameter of a garden hose. Now lets say you are hung up at 140 feet and need to bail. The ambient pressure is 60 psi, which happens to be the normal pressure for household plumbing. Therefore, your sub would take as long to fill up as it would if you opened the hatch while it was parked on your driveway and stuck the garden hose in. I'm not sure how long that is, and it will depend on the volume of your cabin, but surely it's way past the 10 minute no-decompression time for 140 feet. The bottom line is PSUB seacocks need to be very generously sized because we dive shallow. Shackleton's is 3".

Only the air cavity's are affected in a rapid pressurization I believe but my sub has a rated working depth of 350' and as I remember from the old navy tables, you only have about 5 minutes at 165' before you have to make a stop at 10' so due to that fact, I would have to flood the sub as fast as I can to minimize the nitrogen uptake to make it to the surface before getting bent and the negatives to that are that most people can't clear their ears that fast so you are looking at possibly blowing your ear drums which in turn is really painful and screws up you equilibrium which is going to hamper your safe accent to the surface in a timely manner. I am going to have mixed gas in my bailouts to buy me time for getting to the surface and keeping the nitrogen uptake as minimal as possible.
