DESCO AIRHAT
CAT. NO. 61000
Overview
The DESCO Air Hat has been in production over 30 years, and has continually evolved to meet the
requirements of the Commercial Diving Industry. The Air Hat complies with all applicable industry and
government regulations including ADC, OSHA, U.S. Coast Guard, and CE. The Air Hat has a flow rate
capability in excess of that established by the U.S. Navy Divers Manual. Refer to the “Open Circuit System
Requirements” in the U.S. Navy Diving Manual for guidance in determining necessary airflow and overpressure
requirements for your application. Depth of the dive, hose diameter, air source, number of divers, and other
factors will effect the air delivery requirements. Therefore it is the responsibility of the contractor/diver to
determine the size of the air delivery system that will deliver a flow rate to adequately ventilate the Air Hat(s).
Policy Statement
When a new DESCO Air Hat leaves the factory it is as simple and safe as we can make it. It is designed to
operate safely and efficiently for many years without expensive or time-consuming maintenance. Its simplicity
however should not lull a diver into complacency. The Air Hat should receive good care and maintenance on a
regular basis to operate at peak efficiency. DESCO believes this design is the best balance of utility, durability,
and economy. DESCO Corporation cannot recommend, sanction, nor condone field modification of the Air Hat.
Modifying the Air Hat could result in unforeseen serious and life threatening consequences. Under no
circumstances should you remove wholly or in part any component, modifies components, or drill openings into
the Air Hat. Never circumvent the operation of any component of the Air Hat. Older Air Hats can be factory
retrofitted to bring them up to current standards. Double exhausts, double air inlet elbow (for bail-out system),
mounting blocks (for cameras and lights), or a penetrator elbow for a four wire communications plug can be
retrofitted, all or individually, by the factory.
If you have special requirements DESCO will attempt to accommodate your needs, provided they do not
compromise the safe operation of the Air Hat.
As DESCO strives to make diving equipment better, safer, and more user friendly we welcome comments and
suggestions from diving companies, regulatory agencies,
and especially divers, whose safety is our ultimate
goal. Please feel free to contact us.
