The IS-Mix is extremely simple and fast to prepare and operate. The breathing work is minimal due to large diameter hoses and hydrostatic balanced breathing bellows. The set is neutral in water giving ease and exactness in diving procedures. Maintenance costs are very low and most service can be made with little or no tools.
Apart from excellent magnetic signatures and acoustic qualities, the safety aspect has been given high priority. An active breathing warning device, a manually operated bypass function, an automatic buoyancy control valve and separate harness life jacket systems ensure increased diving safety.
The mechanical dosage system keeps the fraction of oxygen constant in the breathing circuit. This is completely independent of the diving depth and the divers’ ventilation. Only two gas mixtures is needed for diving down to 60 meters. This simplifies gas logistics with regards to charging, storing and preparation.
For deep diving the design is based on additional components such as the Interspiro DPX high pressure surface supply system and stage bottles supplying the set with gas for deep dives with long duration.
The complete IS-Mix can be used with a wide range of components to suit any safety standards or operational standards.
The IS-Mix in operational use by several navies around the world.
