1. Introduction
WARNING:
The battery is your personal decompression diving key, do not
lend it to anyone who is not properly trained in its use.
Only properly trained divers are allowed to use either of
the decompression-enabled battery modules with a SE7EN
rebreather.

WARNING:
Diving to 60m affects the canister duration. The canister has
been tested for a duration of 120 minutes at 60m. According
to EN 14143:2013 the canister duration is to be determined via
a full dive profile. This is proven within the formal testing of
the Poseidon SE7EN by an accredited laboratory. Conducting
a 100m dive with 10minutes bottom time, using a prepacked
canister (Sofnodive 797) it was determined that such a dive
profile is within the canister duration. The dive was carried out
using a 11/69 Trimix, following the WeDive plan. Test conditions
were as follows; Water temp 4°C, and a breathing rate of 40lpm
producing 1.6 l CO2 per minute at STPD (Standard Temperature
& Pressure, Dry).
The SE7EN can support decompression diving. To be able to perform decompression dives,
you need two things: 1) the appropriate training, and 2) a decompression-enabled battery
module.
The decompression battery module is available in four versions: Blue, Yellow, White or Black.
- The
Yellow
battery module allows decompression dives to a maximum depth of 40m with air
in the on board diluent gas.
- The
Blue
battery module allows decompression dives to 48m with normoxic trimix minimum
16% oxygen content in the on board diluent gas.
- The White battery module allows decompression dives to 60m with normoxic trimix minimum
16% oxygen content in the on board diluent gas.
- The Black battery module allows decompression dives to 100m with hypoxic trimix minimum
1% oxygen content in the on board diluent gas.
The decompression diving battery modules give you the opportunity to do both recreational
no-decompression diving and technical diving without changing the battery or SE7EN firmware.
The five different battery modules, referred to as the “Recreational 40m”, “Deco 40m”, “Deco
48m Trimix”, “Deco 60m Trimix” and “Deep 100m” batteries, each have different hardware
keys. They are all independent from each other and are not sensitive to firmware changes.
