X-CCR Questions

Hi,
The dimensions are for the OSTC cR (secondary).

Can anyone direct me to an on-line owner's manual for the X?

The SubGravity Defender CCR is not currently available with a CE certification. There are no immediate plans for CE but possibly in the future depending on demand.
 
Hello

On X-CCR , I still have more questions :
What is the exact weight of unit ready to dive ?
What is the size of the primary hanset ?
What is the volume of counterlungs ? (3 ltr | 4 liters)
What kind of systeme architecture is based on ? Does the XCCR use a bus network system to allow independent devices to communicate and interact with each other ?
Thanks

Noticed the I-QSUB web site is now up and running. Google it and a lot of your questions are answered there.

If ordering an X with the Petrel secondary, will it come with the stock X's: 1.) thin, flexible cable, and 2.) "hermetic and "releasable coupling,"" Bramson touts in his article?

Also, can the stock HUD be upgraded to the Shearwater NERD? If so, can it also utilize the same: 1.) thin, flexible cable, and 2.) "hermetic and "releasable coupling""?

Lastly, is the Petrel a superior unit to the OSTC cR, or simply being offered as its more familiar to the rebreather population?

Yes it will be the same cable.

The HUD cannot be changed for a shearwater as the wiring, communication etc is different. But you could still add a NERD as your secondary. You would just get a fisher cable instead of a secondary computer and the NERD would attach to that. The cable from the X-CCR to the fisher would be the same cable.

That is up to the preference of the customer. Historically the HW computers were not available in the US and that is one reason the Shearwater is so much more popular here. In reality we could put any computer that reads PO2 as the secondary.
 
Ok I found some answers on the flyer from SubGravity but I didn't find anything for these questions:

What is the size of the primary hanset ?
What is the volume of counterlungs ? (3 ltr | 4 liters)

What kind of systeme architecture is based on ? Does the XCCR use a bus network system to allow independent devices to communicate and interact with each other ?
So far, what I could understand is that the XCCR doesn't use bus network system, correct ?

Thanks

I will try to answer some questions from what I can remember off the top of my head.

The travel weight (without Tanks, Sorb BP/Harness etc)
32lbs (14.5kg) for the small can and 37 lbs. (16.7 kg) for the full size can.
So for ready to dive weight add on weight of tanks (steel or aluminum in whatever size you use), BP, and 8lbs of sorb for the full size can

I will measure it and get back to you.

I believe 3 ltr but I will confirm

Yes the real brain is in the head (hermeticly sealed) and is powered by 2 rechargeable 18650 batteries. (from separate battery compartments outside the loop) This communicates with the primary handset which acts as a display and a place for the user to interface. So you have 2 way communication between handset and head. In the event the handset is disconnected the head will maintain setpoint etc according to the last setting that was selected by the diver and the diver could monitor the CCR with the secondary or the HUD. Does this answer your question?

Sorry Ken you are probably logged into a dropbox or something so it is trying to open it with your account or something. We will figure out a better way to post it. In the meantime I can email it to you if you PM me your email.
 
Thanks Michael,
Just so I'm clear on this, would adding the Shearwater NERD prevent me from having a secondary handset/computer, be it either a Petrel, OSTC cR, or any other?

Correct it would take the place of your secondary handset. With the primary board being in the head and powering HUD and primary handset and with it having backup battery supply I think you would be well covered in terms of PO2 readout redundancy if you decided to go the NERD route.
