Closed circuit diving rebreathers may be manually or electronically controlled and use both pure oxygen and a breathable mixed gas diluent.
Closed circuit rebreather diving.
Surface supplied diving gas reclaim systems a helium reclaim system or push pull system is used to recover helium based breathing gas after use by the diver.
As an underwater cameraman the basic reasons that i switched from heavy dual tanks to a nice light rebreather unit like the inspiration evo are simplicity quietness.
Mccr manual closed circuit rebreathers.

Operational scope and restrictions of ccrs.
Rebreather diving is underwater diving using rebreathers which recirculate the breathing gas already used by the diver after replacing oxygen used by the diver and removing the carbon dioxide metabolic product.
All closed circuit rebreathers use oxygen diluent air trimix a breathing loop counter lungs a mouthpiece to deliver the breathing gas a scrubber to remove the carbon dioxide from the system and a method to replace the metabolized oxygen.
Beyond this near silent bliss rebreathers offer further benefits including increased bottom time decreased decompression obligations and fewer physical.
