IDA-71 Functional Diagrams

WARNING:
I recommend that no one go into water using an IDA-71 rebreather. This system completely lacks modern safety features and it is very likely that diving with a fully functional, mint condition IDA-71 will get you killed. This article is written merely as an engineering study.

DO NOT DIVE USING AN ORIGINAL OR MODIFIED IDA-71 REBREATHER


     Yeah, I know, I said like a year ago that I should make functional diagrams for the IDA-71, that those would be way more useful than CAD models. I made one that covers the basic rebreather (not the optional nitrox rig), and for a conceptual understanding, it's pretty good. More to come in the near future. Seriously. I mean it. I'll finish this process eventually.
