  • Desco Diving Hat Manual
    DESCO AIRHAT CAT. NO. 61000 DESCO Corporation 240 N. Milwaukee Street Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202 Phone: 414-272-2371 FAX: 414-272-2373 E-Mail: [email protected] www.divedesco.com Overview The DESCO Air Hat has been in production over 30 years, and has continually evolved to meet the requirements of the Commercial Diving Industry. The Air Hat complies with all applicable industry and government regulations including ADC, OSHA, U.S. Coast Guard, and CE. The Air Hat has a flow rate capability in excess of that established by the U.S. Navy Divers Manual. Refer to the “Open Circuit System Requirements” in the U.S. Navy Diving Manual for guidance in determining necessary airflow and overpressure requirements for your application. Depth of the dive, hose diameter, air source, number of divers, and other factors will effect the air delivery requirements. Therefore it is the responsibility of the contractor/diver to determine the size of the air delivery system that will deliver a flow rate to adequately ventilate the Air Hat(s). Policy Statement When a new DESCO Air Hat leaves the factory it is as simple and safe as we can make it. It is designed to operate safely and efficiently for many years without expensive or time-consuming maintenance. Its simplicity however should not lull a diver into complacency. The Air Hat should receive good care and maintenance on a regular basis to operate at peak efficiency. DESCO believes this design is the best balance of utility, durability, and economy. DESCO Corporation cannot recommend, sanction, nor condone field modification of the Air Hat.

  • Spacesuits Have Been Created, but We Want to Go Further
    Science and Innovation A Boeing/Teaching Channel Partnership EXTREME BIOSUITS Student Handbook Science and Innovation Extreme Biosuits Student Handbook Engineering Design Process Step 1 Identify the Need or Problem Describe the engineering design challenge to be solved. Include the limits and constraints, customer description, and an explanation of why solving this challenge is important. Step 2 Research Criteria and Constraints Research how others have solved this or similar problems, and discover what materials have been used. Be sure to thoroughly research the limitations and design requirements for success. Step 3 Brainstorm Possible Solutions Use your knowledge and creativity to generate as many solutions as possible. During this brainstorming stage, do not reject any ideas. Step 4 Select the Best Solution Each team member presents their solution ideas to the team. Team members annotate how each solution does or does not meet each design requirement. The team then agrees on a solution, or combination of solutions, that best meets the design requirements. Step 5 Construct a Prototype Develop an operating version of the solution. Step 6 Test Test your solution. Annotate the results from each test to share with your team. Step 7 Present Results Present the results from each test to the team. Step 8 Redesign Determine a redesign to address failure points and/or design improvements. The design process involves multiple iterations and redesigns. Redesign is based on the data from your tests, your team discussions as to the next steps to improve the design, and the engineering design process Steps 1 through 7. Once your team is confident of a prototype solution, you present the results to the client.

  • Gorski Diving Helmet - Briefing Notes
    GORSKI DIVING HELMET - BRIEFING NOTES INTRODUCTION The Gorski G2000SS diving helmet is manufactured by the Aqua Lung Group. The helmet was designed by Les Gorski, a highly respected and experienced working diver, for use by fellow commercial divers. It has the distinction of being the first production stainless steel diving helmet and, when it entered service in late 2004, it changed the commercial diving industry. Today the “Gorski Hat” still sets the standard for a new generation of modern diving helmets not only in terms of materials and construction but also for unique design features and simplified support. With over 300 helmets in use world-wide, the “Gorski Hat” is comprehensively field-proven and has an excellent quality and safety record. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS NAME Question: What does G2000SS stand for? Answers: • G = Gorski / 2000 = Year of first prototype helmet / SS = Stainless Steel • We are proud of the fact that the inventor of the G2000SS helmet, Mr Les Gorski, is now a member of the Aqua Lung America Military & Professional product team, with special responsibility for Commercial Diving. MATERIALS AND CONSTRUCTION Question: What are the benefits of a stainless steel helmet? Answers: • Stainless steel is extremely durable, damage-resistant, and ideally suited for the working diver. • No threaded inserts are required for securing the visor and faceplate to the helmet shell. • Stainless steel requires little or no routine maintenance. • No refinishing is required if the surface is scratched or gouged. • The external handle is built in. • The helmet base ring is an integral part of the helmet. • No additional helmet weights are required.

It calls for total encapsulation in a vapor tight chemical suit with self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or supplied air and appropriate accessories. Level B situations call for the highest degree of respiratory protection but a lesser need for skin protection. It calls for SCBA or positive pressure supplied air respirator with escape SCBA, plus hooded chemical resistant clothing (overalls and long sleeved jacket; coveralls; one or two piece chemical-splash suit; or disposable ch emical-resistant coveralls boots and gloves. Level C is the lowest level of hazmat protection. Level “C” requires NIOSH N95 or higher level of respiratory protection but a minimal need for skin protection. It calls for half mask or full- LEVEL face negative pressure respirators or powered air respirators (PAPR’s). Level “C” requires use C of a hooded chemical resistant suit or two piece chemical resistant suit, chemical resistant boots and gloves. Respirator must be able to remove all chemical and biological agents and the agent must pose no splash hazard . Barrier Protection for Tyvek® Level “C” Protection Standard non-coated Tyvek material is intended for protection from exposure only to dry particulate or light splash body fluid risks. It is not intended for protection from blood borne pathogens or hazardous chemicals in a wet environment.

Abstract: We communicate briefly about the innovation of protective gear (such as Hazmat suit) and respirator mask that can be used by health care professionals as mouth and nose protection tools against the penetration of the microscopic particles containing highly contagious species into the body. As a research and development support to the local entrepreneurs willing to come up with innovative products, the structural and some surface functional properties of the polymeric materials available in local market were analyzed in comparison to the commercially available gears and masks. It has been found that the respirator masks, equivalent in structure and functional properties as the common commercially available protective gears could be developed that can be used by front-line health professionals for protection against contagious environment.
