BS EN 250:2014EN 250:2014 (E) 6 Introduction A given self-contained open-circuit compressed air underwater breathing apparatus can only be approved when the individua

30、l components satisfy the requirements of the test specification which may be a complete standard or part of a standard, and practical performance tests have been carried out successfully on complete apparatus where specified in the appropriate standard. If for any reason a complete apparatus is not

31、tested then simulation of the apparatus is permitted provided the respiratory characteristics are similar to those of the complete apparatus.

36、ons For the purposes of this document the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 self-contained, open-circuit Compressed air Underwater Breathing Apparatus SCUBA apparatus which has a portable supply of compressed air carried by the diver, allowing him to breathe under water and exhale into the

37、ambient water Note 1 to entry: The self-contained, open-circuit compressed air underwater breathing apparatus, when ready to use, consists of a number of compatible sub-assemblies each of which complies with the appropriate requirements of this standard. When connected together, the complete self-co

38、ntained, open-circuit compressed air underwater breathing apparatus is designed to enable the wearer to breathe air on demand from a high pressure cylinder (or cylinders) via a demand regulator connected to a facepiece. The exhaled air passes, without recirculation, from the demand regulator via the

39、 exhalation valve to ambient water. 3.2 high pressure pressure inside the cylinder(s) and between the cylinder(s) and any pressure reducer 3.3 medium pressure pressure between the pressure reducer and the demand valve BS EN 250:2014EN 250:2014 (E) 8 3.4 rated working pressure maximum working pressur

43、y pressure against the displaced volume 3.12 Work Of Breathing (WOB) external work expended during one breath divided by the tidal volume of that breath, measured in Joule per litre, i.e. specific work Note 1 to entry: This is equivalent to volume average respiratory pressure (kPa). This work of bre

44、athing is, in general, proportional to the area bounded by the pressure volume diagram. Work associated with positive pressures during inhalation does not count towards the total work of breathing. 3.13 facepiece device that connects the apparatus to the wearers respiratory tract and isolates the re
