A Battery: Eveready 742: 1.5 V: Metal tabs H: 101.6 L: 63.5 W: 63.5 Used to provide power to the filament of a vacuum tube. B Battery: Eveready 762-S: 45 V: Threaded posts H: 146 L: 104.8 W: 63.5 Used to supply plate voltage in vintage vacuum tube equipment. Origin of the term B+ for plate voltage power supplies.
hobbyist-built DPV with T500 thrusters . A DPV usually consists of a pressure-resistant watertight casing containing an underwater thruster, or a battery-powered electric motor, which drives a propeller The design must ensure that the propeller cannot harm the diver, diving equipment or marine life, the vehicle cannot be accidentally started or run away from the diver, and it remains ...
The batteries were of a new design. Compared with the original Sargo battery, the Guppy battery used a greater number of thinner plates that would generate higher current for a longer time. However, these batteries had a shorter life, 18 months versus the five years of the Sargo battery, and took longer to charge. They also required ventilation ...
A dive computer, personal decompression computer or decompression meter is a device used by an underwater diver to measure the elapsed time and depth during a dive and use this data to calculate and display an ascent profile which, according to the programmed decompression algorithm, will give a low risk of decompression sickness.
A C battery measures 50 mm (1.97 in) length and 26.2 mm (1.03 in) diameter. [3] The voltage and capacity of a C-size battery depends on the battery chemistry and discharge conditions. The nominal voltage is 1.5V. Alkaline C batteries have a storage capacity up to 8000 mAh while rechargeable NiMH C batteries can hold up to 6000 mAh. Zinc-carbon ...
The Newtsuit has fully articulated, rotary joints in the arms and legs. These provide high mobility, while remaining largely unaffected by high pressures. An atmospheric diving suit (ADS), or single atmosphere diving suit is a small one-person articulated submersible which resembles a suit of armour, with elaborate pressure joints to allow articulation while maintaining an internal pressure of ...
A diving cylinder or diving gas cylinder is a gas cylinder used to store and transport high pressure gas used in diving operations. This may be breathing gas used with a scuba set , in which case the cylinder may also be referred to as a scuba cylinder , scuba tank or diving tank .
A diving bell is a rigid chamber used to transport divers from the surface to depth and back in open water, usually for the purpose of performing underwater work. The most common types are the open-bottomed wet bell and the closed bell, which can maintain an internal pressure greater than the external ambient. [1]
