If the diving you do is within 40m and generally does not require decompression then the Submatix SCR could be the perfect way to extend your dive times or reduce the equipment carried. Semi Closed rebreathers can be up to 5x more efficient to use than open circuit.

Example – A diver diving a single 12ltr cylinder to 30m using air, with a breathing rate of 20lpm allowing for a 50bar reserve – a dive time of 27mins would be achieved.

The same dive on the Submatix 100ST SCR using 40% Nitrox would give the user a total dive time available of 64mins (allowing a 9.4lpm flow)

To achieve the same dive time on Open Circuit would require a set of twin 15ltr cylinders weighing around 35kgs!

More than double the weight and size of the Submatix 100ST.
