[PSUBS-MAILIST] scrubber cartridge

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Maybe we can do a real life cost comparison.  How much does Sodasorb cost per hr of use.  How well does it stay fresh when sitting partly used in a scrubber.  I find that I throw a lot of absorbent away, probably from a lack of experience working with it.

I have tried promoting Micropore products a lot in the past but
      general consensus was that cost outweighs convenience and it never
      really caught on.  We had Micropore reps as our guest at the 2008
      convention and discussed pros/cons of modifying their rebreather
      canisters for personal submarine use.  They had even offered to do
      some testing for us and at one time PSUBS was moving toward
      dealership of their products.

Look at the following link to see how I proposed modifications of
      their smaller canister without any permanent damage to the
      original.  Never tested however, the big question was appropriate
      air flow to provide ultimate dwell time for the CO2 and efficient
      absorption.

I always felt the convenience was worth the price and plan on
      using Micropore as modified above in the K600.
