LITHIOLIME

Function of Contamination Control Assembly The Lithiolime removes

• carbon dioxide and acid gases by means of a chemical reaction with lithium hydroxide (LiOH),
• odours and off-gassing products by means of activated charcoal fi lters and catalysts, and

particulates and aerosols by means of a particle filter. The fi lter also prevents LiOH dust from leaving the filter

APPLICATIONS

Diving grade Lithiolime absorbs carbon dioxide ensuring a breathable atmosphere is maintained.

It is optimised for the removal of carbo dioxide from recirculated air/nitrox/heliox in rebreathers, saturation dive systems and submarines.

• Military rebreathers
• Submarines

FEATURES of LI0H cartridges

A Li0H cartridge consists of a stainless steel housing containing the fi lterbag inside and a plastic cover on each end of the housing.

For transport and storage it is sealed in an evacuated compound foil and is packed in a light-weight plastic container.

Proper evacuation of the foil ensures the correct handling of cartridges and full performance.
