FULTON Commander, U.S. NAVY Officer-in-Charge Approved far pubiig paloape; divtesbuioa wolimiteds REPORT NO. 6-52 FOREWORD An evaluation of the Italian SCUBA (self-contained underwater breathing apparatus) know as Pirelli was submitted to the Bureau of Ships on 28 January 1952, Development of newer techniques for SCUBA evaluation has made it desirable to re-evaluate the Pirelli on a basis of closer duplication of field conditions. Availability of an in- stantaneous carbon dioxide analyzer has rendered it possible to obtain data on carbon dioxide percentages in any part of the SCUBA. As a result of these newer techniques and equipment, the re-evaluation of the Pirelli has led to conclusions concerning the apparatus which are considerably different from those drawn in the original evaluation. However it should be stressed that the original conclusions are valid for the conditions of the first evaluation. Pertinent parts of the first report; are incorporated directly into this report wherever it is desirable, to minimize cross-reference.

Supplementary evaluation 1. ‘he supplementary evaluation encompassed only one dive in the pressure tank at thirty feet under diving conditions. At the time, equipment for a return-sampling procedure under pressure had not been procured, and the open-sampling procedure gave results which were too extended in time to be of worth in the evaluation. 2. Four swimming runs were made with large Pirelli and one with the small. a. In all but one a single man swam the large Pirelli to the end of the run. In the exception the apparatus was shifted to a second swimmer after an hour, without purging the bag. In all cases the swimmer’: Jungs were purged with pure oxygen from another source before they donned the apparatus. From beginning to end of a run the bag was never purged. b. One man swam the small Pirelli to zero bottle pressure. c. All swimming runs were made at a controlled rate of one knot, interrupted only by sampling or by shifting swimmers, 3. Initial bottle pressure was around 1900 psig; initial and final xeadings and the corresponding oxygen consumption are given in the data sheets. 4. Baralyme carbon dioxide indicator absorbent was used in all large Pirelli runs; sodalime indicator absorbent was used in the single small Pirelli run. 5. Sampling procedures differed considerably from those of the first evaluation. @. Carbon dioxide percentage was determined with the Liston Becker Model 11 instantaneous carbon dioxide analyzer. This equipment consists of two units. A sensor analyzes| the carbon dioxide in a gas mixture by comparing the infra-red absorption of the mixture with that of a known sample, and generates a differential signal which has a non- linear relationship to the volume percentage of carbon dioxide in the mixture; an amplifier increases the signal strength so that it can operate a direct-reading meter or any suitable recorder. The non-linear calibration curve for the analyzer plots directly from a number of known’ samples analyzed by the Haldane method (five samples give a satisfactory curve). Zero reading and amplifier gain are both adjustable so that, with a calibration stick to reproduce .a given percentage absorption shadow, the analyzer can be set to any desired degree of sensitivity Maximum range depends on the sensor. In this case maximum range was 0-15%, but on-scale operation was confined to 0-6%. Readings, which were originally obtained in microamperes, have been converted to volume percentages in all data sheets. Occasional calibration checks with known carbon dioxide samples showed/no drift and indicated a maximum error of less than 0.5% of full scale reading. For 1% volume percentage samples this is a real error of 0.005% volume percentage and is entirely negligible for the qualitative analysis of this evaluation A minimum sample of 20cc is needed to flush the sensor) in order to obtain an accurate analysis of any mixture. With continuous flow, however, the analyzer responds immediately to any variation in carbon dioxide percentage, and is so sensitive that every phase of a breathing cycle produces a corresponding reading. b. Oxygen percentage was determined with the Beckman Model D oxygen analyzer. This is a small unit which gives a direct reading of oxygen volume percentage from the change in deflection of a magnetic sensor caused by the oxygen sample paramagnetic absorption in a magnetic field. A negligible quantity is needed for the sample. Checks of the unit with air and pure oxygen showed a maximum deviation of 2%. Since the oxygen never fell below 40% (and was usually in excess of 80%) the oxygen readings are of academic interest except as quantitative indications of residual nitrogen in the breathing medium. ¢. To effect continuous sampling, a sampling pump was used. This was a stock electric driven 6-volt d.c. automobile fuel pump. Sampling tubes at upper and lower breathing tube sections and at the lower corner of the bag provided satisfactory respiratory and breathing medium samples. A small laboratory flask was fitted as a washer to prevent water carry-over. Respiratory samples were drawn from the upper tube and returned to the lower, and from the lower tube and re- turned to the upper. Bag breathing medium samples were drawn from the bag tube and returned to the lower respiratory tube so that any previous respiratory samples with high carbon dioxide content were flushed from the analyzer and returned to their general sampling area. Since these latter samples necessarily circulated through the absorbent, some purification of the breathing medium might have occurred in time. However breathing medium sampling was conducted only long enough to obtain a steady carbon dioxide reading, and the effect of purification is negligible. The closed-circuit sampling arrangement is shown in FIGURE 1. a. Samples were taken at various intervals as dictated by experience and conditions. The slow carbon dioxide accretion of the first hour generally) necessitated fewer samples than the rapid accretion of the second nour when the apparatus neared exhaustion. In general samples were as far apart as was consistent with good data, in order to minimize the loss of swimming effort during sampling time (which averaged about a minute). The swimmer stood on the ladder in the pool with just enough of the apparatus clear of the water to facilitate shifting sampling tubes. 6. For the thirty-foot dive a non-return sampling procedure was necessary because the fuel pump could not work against the depth head without pressurizing the two analyzers, which would have destroyed their usefulness. The three sampling tubes were brought to a common tank outlet. Each had a clamp valve and a tender opened one clamp at a time. Another valve on the outside allowed the analyzer operator to control the sample flow. The excessive amount of tubing and water washer dead space necessitated a two or three liter sample before the bag readings stabilized, and a six to eight liter sample before the respiratory peak readings stabilized. Consequently one round of readings purged the bag of at least half its volume at that depth and resulted in a depletion of the breathing medium carbon dioxide content IV. RESULTS A. Small Pirelli Only one run was made with the small Pirelli because the unit is thought to have insufficient endurance for practical military use, particularly in view of the much longer endurance of the large Pirelli. However, as a matter of interest, the results of this one run are shown graphically in figure’ 2. Salient features of the graph are: the wid swing of the maximum and minimum percentages; the nearly constant average percentage; and the sharp rise of ali percentages after 0:25. The swimmer secured his run at 0:37 with his bag full and his oxygen bottle empty; despite the full bag, he felt unable to draw a breath. B. Large Pirelli Four swimming runs and one tank depth run were made with the large Pirelli, The results are shown graphically in Figures 3 through 7. 1. Run #2 (Figure 3) was made before the bag sampling tube was installed, and only the breathing tube data are available. Salient features are: the small swing of maximum and minimum percentages; the fairly constant average percentage; and the rise of all percentages after 1:30. The run was secured at 2:05 because of the high carbon dioxide percentage and because of the obvious distress ‘of the swimmer. 2. Run #3 (Figure 4) was the first to be made with coatinuous bag sampling. Salient features are: the moderately wide swing of maximum and minimum percentages; the very constant average percentage; the sharp rise of bag percentage after 1:50; and the sharp rise of breathing percentages after 2:00. The run was secured eight minutes after the 2:20 round of samples, with the swimmer in extreme distress. He ripped the mask off his face but secured the bag. The 2:28 bag sample was analyzed on the Haldane apparatus. 3. Run #4 (Figure 5) shows the following features: the very small swing of maximum and)minimim percentage; the fairly constant averace percentage; and the gradual rise of bag percentage after 1:00. Because the pool temperature was excessively low, the swimmer had to secure the run at 1:48, before the sharp rise of breathing percentages occurred. 4. Run #5 (Figure 6) was made with two men in succession. Salient features ar the small swing of maximum and minimum percentages and the very constant average for the first swimmer up to 1:00; and the wider swing, rising average, and sharply rising bag percentage for the second swimmer from 1:04 to 1:58, The second swimmer was pulled from the pool in a semi-conscious condition at 2:01. 5. Run #6 ( Figure7) was the only tank depth run made. The results were so greatly extended by the non-return sampling procedure that further runs of this type would be of no value for actual comparison of depth and surface effects. Vv. DISCUSSION A. General 1. The following observations apply to the graphs of Fipures 2 through 6. a. An extremely wide swing of maximum and minimum percentages indicates heavy breathing. This effect is particularly noticeable in Fipures 4 to 6. b. Figure 4 shows two "second wind" effects with a very small swing at 0:25 and a small swing at 1:00. ¢. Figure 6 shows a nearly steady, shallow type of breathing for the first man, contrasted with somewhat deeper breathing for the second. a. Variable breathing averages, as in Finures 3 and 5, are a result of shallow breathing at various tidal volumes, which in turn are partially determined by fatigue. e. Bag samples are a good relative indicator of breathing tube average, and rise in bag percentage is followed soon by a corresponding rise in breathing average. 2. The following remarks apply to Figures 7 and 8. a. The exercycle depth run shown in Figure 7 did not develop a bag percentage increase for a long period of time because the sampling method placed the diver very nearly on " opercircuit" rather than on "closed-circuit" breathing. Bag carbon dioxide did not increase until the absorbent was so exhausted that it passed most of the breath into the bag without purification. b. ‘The original exhaustion weight-lifting run shown in Figure 8 is roughly comparable to the exercycle run, but the work rate was so low that oxygen consumption was only little over half that of the swimming and exercycle runs. B. Small Pirelli As Figure 2 shows, the average percentage of carbon dioxide in the small Pirelli is very high, being near 38 for the first part of the run, and climbing rapidly when the absorbent is exhausted. Although he aid so deliberately, the swimmer gave himself a severe case of carbon @ioxide poisoning by continuing to swim after both bottle and canister were exhausted. ‘The carbon dioxide increase is sufficiently rapid ana unpredictable that it makes the apparatus unsafe for strenuous work for any but brief periods C. Large Pirelli 1, Although the weight-lifting runs of the first evaluation were taken to be equivalent to swimming runs in bodily exertion, comparison of the 0.875 liters per minute average oxygen consumption in weight-liftin with the 1.60 liters per minute average oxygen consumption in swimming le indicates that weight-lifting duplicates little over half the swimming effort. On such a hypothesis, the apparatus should last nearly twice as long for weight-lifting as for swimming. In point of fact, when compared with the swimming runs, the endurance run of the first evaluation bears this out, if consideration is given to the extension of time caused by complete bag purge between divers. The carbon dioxide increase was slow, oxygen consumption was low, and canister life was long in this type run. 2. Inasmuch as one of the primary military uses for the Pirelli would be that of an underwater swimming unit, this second report stresses the materially shortened life of the unit under swimming conditions. The average life to exhaustion of the unit for the three valid swimming runs was 2:10. Rapid carbon dioxide increase came much sooner, oxygen consumption was higher, and canister life was shorter. 3. The exercycle depth run was inconclusive for carbon dioxide in- crease data because of the non-return breathing medium sampling method. However the average oxygen consumption of 1.71 liters per minute indicates that the work rate is in the same range as the swimming rate. When depth runs are made again, a new depth sampling apparatus will give the return-sampling results, and will shed more adequate light on the actual interchangeability of exercycling and swimming data. VI. CONCLUSIONS + Small Pirelli 1. To provide an adequate safety factor, this unit should be limited to a maximum time of 15 minutes for strenuous subsurface work or swimming. 2. Because of the high carbon dioxide average percentage in the breathing tube, the unit should not be used for swimming at depths greater than 10 feet, at which depth effective percentage is 1.3 times the actual percentage. B. Large Pirelli + To provide an adequate safety factor, this unit should be limited to a maximum time of 1 hour 30 minutes for strenuous subsurface work or swimming. 2. Because of the high carbon dioxide average percentage in the breathing tube, the unit should not be used to a depth greater than 16 feet for strenuous work or for swimming; at that depth effective per- centage is approximately 1.5 times the acutal percentage. 3. Because of the sudden repid rise in carbon dioxide average, the unit should be limited to a maximum time of 1 hour at 15 feet for strenuous work or for swimming. 4, Since carbon dioxide is a main factor in enhancement of oxygen poisoning, unit should be used with extreme caution for any depth greater than subsurface. ‘ale VIII.
