- Abstract
The climate conditioning of a hyperbaric chamber is extremely important, as the health or even lives of the divers depend on it. Climate conditioning consists of controlling and maintaining the following factors inside the enclosure: Temperature Humidity The parameters of the breathing gas. In this paper I have analyzed some of the aspects regarding the thermo-hygrometric phenomena and the composition of the breathing gas mix, phenomena that accompany any dive in saturation. The variation in temperature and humidity under pressure and during decompression differs from the unitary dives with Nitrox, because of helium, the main component of breathing gas. When planning the dive, one must take into account the presence of atmospheric air in the hyperbaric chamber at the beginning of the compression process, in order to avoid hyperoxia.
