The Aladin

system consists of four units:
1 The Oxy2 is fitted “in line“ to the inhalation hose of the
semi closed rebreather (SCR) and measures the actual oxygen
fraction of the inspired gas mixture. This information is transmit-
ted to a paired wireless Aladin

Air Z O
2
. This is the basis for the
calculation of both oxygen toxicity and decompression, based on
the real values of the inhalation gas.
2 With open circuit breathing systems a pressure transmitter
is used, which is installed at the high pressure outlet of the first
stage regulator. It measures tank pressure and radio-transmits
the results to the dive computer, where they are further analysed
for the calculation of gas mixture consumption and dive data.
3 The dive computer displays only important data. The upper
display shows general dive data and decompression data. The
lower display shows data from either an Oxy2 or pressure trans-
mitter.
