THE DEMAND OXYGEN SYSTEM

The "demand" oxygen system in your ship insures a fully adequate oxygen supply except under the most extreme conditions. It was developed to supply you, AUTOMATICALLY, as much oxygen as you need when you need it--at all altitudes and under all conditions.

The DEMAND OXYGEN SYSTEM consists of the following:

  1. Demand type mask.
  2. Mask to regulator tubing.
  3. Demand type regulator (A-12).
  4. Portable recharging hose (for filling walk-around bottles
  5. Portable equipment:
    1. A-4 Cylinder with A-13 demand regulator.
    2. D-2 cylinder with A-13 regulator.
  6. A panel containing:
    1. a flow indicator
    2. an oxygen pressure gauge
  7. Cylinders containing breathing oxygen.
