Rebreather-Scuba Diving Market

Rebreather-Scuba Diving Market: Introduction

• Rebreather is an essential scuba diving gear which supplies oxygen or nitro and removes co2 from the breathing loop. Rebreathers operate silently and provide longer dive time. The function of a rebreather is the same in different models; however execution differs.
• Electronically controlled rebreathers (ECCR) constantly measure oxygen using a computer and maintains partial pressure of oxygen in the breathing loop.
• MCCR - Manually controlled closed circuit rebreather are cheaper than ECCR and require manual control of the oxygen supply.
• The use of a rebreather produces less bubble; disturbance to underwater life is also eliminated, providing greater access for exploration. The global rise in recreational activities and tourism is expected to fuel the growth of the rebreather-scuba diving market during the forecast period.
