Partial Pressure is how our shop blends nitrox now. Does anyone have any trick as to getting the mix dead on in a shorter time than it takes me now? I had a couple of mixes i did come out much higher than anticipated. We use Dive rites Voyager program to get the right mix numbers, i cross checked it with another program and they were with in a few psi of each other. Those who partial pressure blend do you mix the o2 and then let the tank cool? or Load the compressed air in shortly after?
So do people have a system for partial pressure blenind that is sure fire for them?
Right now we are not banking due to needing some HP banks cascade o2 cleaned (which is a whole other question). We do have a stick, has anyone used some HP scuba scylinders to bank the HP. Or use a stick to fill each cylinder?
I am really looking for a better way to do the blending as it takes too long to partial pressure blend and do it efficiently. I can generally get the mixes with in a fraction of a percent, but every once in a while i get one that is way off.
Any and all thoughts would be helpfull. I am sure i missed some vital pieces of info.
