Sub MkIIIF

Fixed Submarine Atmosphere Monitor

Operating in a hyperbaric or hypobaric environment can be challenging enough, but how do you ensure the atmosphere is safe to breathe?

The Sub MkIIIF has been designed as a flexible gas monitoring system. Configured to meet specific operational requirements, the REM units allow variable sensor installation and flexible sensor placement.

Key Features

  • Illuminated display with an easy-to-read screen
  • Can connect to up to three REM units for greater flexibility
  • Audio and visual alarms provide immediate notification of potential issues

Additional Information

CO₂ and O₂ Monitoring with the Sub MkIIIF

The Sub MkIIIF provides critical monitoring of oxygen (O₂), carbon dioxide (CO₂), temperature, humidity, and pressure, making it suitable for both hyperbaric and hypobaric applications.

The system consists of a central display unit and can be connected to up to three remote sensor modules (REMs).

REM Units

REM 1 measures:

  • Oxygen (O₂)
  • Carbon dioxide (CO₂)
  • Pressure

REM 2 measures:

  • Temperature
  • Humidity

Oxygen Controller

The Sub MkIIIF can also be configured as an O₂ controller, automatically maintaining oxygen concentrations at a preset level.

The controller is typically used to maintain chamber oxygen concentration or oxygen levels delivered through a BIBS system on an SRV.

Power and Operation

A large graphic display on the operator console shows the value of each measured parameter, associated units, and alarm set points. Two independent audio and visual alarm channels are available for each monitored parameter.

The REM units also provide local in-chamber displays of monitored parameters and repeat alarm indications.

The Sub MkIIIF operates from a 9–24 VDC power supply, with an optional AC mains power configuration available. The operator console is designed to provide power to the REM units. This requires five cores through a penetrator (two power and three communications). Alternatively, the REM units can be powered locally.

In standard operation, the Sub MkIIIF monitors the atmosphere using diffusion sampling, eliminating the need for pumps and reducing maintenance requirements.

Applications

Industries That Use the Sub MkIIIF to Monitor Hyperbaric Atmospheres

The Analox Sub MkIIIF is a hyperbaric atmosphere monitoring system capable of measuring oxygen (O₂), carbon dioxide (CO₂), pressure (depth), temperature, and relative humidity.

It is ideally suited for use in hyperbaric chambers for HBOT and diving applications, as well as for atmosphere monitoring in Submarine Rescue Vehicles (SRVs).

  • Medical: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) chambers
  • Aerospace: Hypobaric chambers
  • Commercial Submersibles: Manned submersibles
  • Submarine Applications: Dry Deck Shelters (DDS)
  • Submarine DISSUB & Rescue: Submarine rescue vehicles, Submarine escape and rescue operations
  • Diving Applications: Decompression chambers, Special forces diving deployment
