Yesterday I received very good news!
Андрей Ладынин made a 100-meter dive on the sidemount version of the IDA Astra rebreather with manual control of the partial oxygen pressure (mCCR, full configuration index IDA Astra-2.7.4.1)!
The basis of the IDA Astra-2.X rebreathers is the canister I developed for the IDA Afalina rebreather manufactured by JSC KAMPO.
The numbers X.7.4.X in the configuration index indicate that the body and counterlungs of the Svarog rebreather by Sergey Baykov are used.
The number X.X.X.1 indicates that the standard canister cover with oxygen sensors is used. A cable is installed on the cover, to which a computer capable of showing partial pressure is connected. And of course, this was the computer AB1 by Aleksey Vazhinskiy
Alexey Vazhinsky also conducted the technical course of the National Dive League, where this dive was made.
Andrey's partner and co-organizer of the trip to the Blue Lake was Павел Лукашенко
Congratulations to Andrey, myself, Sergey, Alexey and Pavel!
