[PSUBS-MAILIST] O2 regulator

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Cliff,
thanks' got it.  Just for interest, Gamma's original scrubber has a hug squirrel cage fan, like from a car heater.  The only problem is it is very noisy.  I was under the impression the air had to move slowly through the absorbent.

If you think of the filter as a cylinder, for an axial flow filter, the flow of the air through the filter is along the axis of the cylinder.  Flow comes in one end and out the other.  For radial flow filter, the flow radiates out perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder and there is a hollow inner space.  The inlet or exit is connected to this inner space.

Weak fans are a problem for scrubbers from my experience.  One other point, I found that box style blower was better than axial fan as then push less flow but can generate higher head which is needed to push the air through the absorbent.

Hi Hank,

They are in the North West. They have a great selection of oxygen equipment, tanks &
fittings on their site.
