Sažetak
The amount of absorbed C02 on soda lime in closed-circuit isolating apparatus is an important physiological and technical parameter. For its determination we used the classical method modified and improved in our laboratory. Soda limes of different quality were tested in standard self-rescuing isolating breathing apparatus and in oxygen SCUBA. The results show that the C02 content absorbed during C02 autonomy can give useful information about construction characteristics of the apparatus when soda lime of known quality is used. This parameter also enables the evaluation of soda lime quality when used in closed-circuit isolating breathing apparatus of well-known characteristics. From the total C02 quantity in the soda lime used in closed-circuit isolating apparatus the user's average energy expenditure can be estimated and accidents with oxygen SCUBA can be reconstructed.
