RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Venting an Ambient



Hi Joe,
 
This point you made below, is exactly what I want to figure out for my inflatable pontoons, so I can blow them at depth if I need to in an emergency.  Most of the time I would only fill them up when I get back to the surface.
 
"What would a cracking pressure of 0.5 to 2 lbs translate to in hull overpressure, and how many would be required to dump expansion in an emergency ascent from max depth."

Someone asked about venting an ambient.
 
I found some PVC check valves today which could quite possibly do the trick but I think you would have to ask two questions.
 
What would a cracking pressure of 0.5 to 2 lbs translate to in hull overpressure, and how many would be required to dump expansion in an emergency ascent from max depth.
 
Otherwise, these look pretty nifty!
