[PSUBS-MAILIST] Scrubber design and materials

[Cliff Redus via Personal_Submersibles]

 The squire gage blower I use on the R300 scrubber is similar the one Emile has posted.  DC FLATPAKS.qxp (octopart.com)
Model Papst RL90-18/14NVoltage 12-28VDCPower 5WNoise 58dBACurrent  .21AAir flow  24CFB  at 0 in H20 differential pressure
Note that the flow rate through these fans/blowers are given at 0 differential pressure.  You would need to look at the head curve on the datasheet to determine the actual flowrate through the fan/scrubber.  It would be substantially reduced due to the pressure drop through the CO2 absorbent section.   Also to meet ABS rules, you need to size this unit so the that the current draw is not so great as to pull the emergency battery down before reaching 72 hours of life support.  On my boat, the hotel load is about 1.5 amps (life support and comms only).  The emergency battery has a capacity of 110 Ah at 24V so a 1.5A hotel load will last 73 hours.  I did a garage test to confirm.

 Hi Brian, here is the data on the fan. I havent ran any tests yet to see if the watts rating are at full speed. I am adding a dimmer circuit as well.   
   - Rated Voltage: 12V
   - Rated Current: 1.0A
   - Connecter: XH2.54-2Pin
   - Power: 11W
   - Speed: 3000RPM
   - Air flow:38.5CFM
   - Noise:45dBA

David,          How many watts is the scrubber motor?

Hi Guys, just completed my scrubber for the VAST sub. Its capacity is right at 3lbs, based on my rice test. I see I can purchase soda sorb online but was wanting recommendations on where to purchase it or the draeger product. Since this is my first scrubber, I have no experience with the different products.
