So I started reading threads about SAC and since I had no idea what mine was I thought I'd try and calculate it, and I'm just not sure if I did it right, though the number I got seems to be about right. Here is what I used[this was done while sitting on my couch]:
I breathed from an AL 80 for 30 minutes. Initial pressure: 1500 psig. Final Pressure: 850 psig. Total consumed: 650 psig.
I calculated from those numbers that I used 22.67 cu. ft. of air in 30 minutes or a resting SAC of 0.76 cu. ft. per minute.
I'm bouncing back between metric and imperial lately for work, so while I am pretty sure I got my maths correct if anyone is bored and once to double check, thanks!
