Rebreather Diving

SCR Vs. CCR What is the difference?

The closed circuit Rebreather will add the exact amount of oxygen needed and will be more efficient and quieter than the semi-closed system.

Semi-Closed Circuit Rebreathers (SCR) only use one gas cylinder with an enriched air content. It usually pushes gas into the loop with a constant flow.

SCR is a great way to begin diving with a Rebreather as it offers a relatively low-cost entry into technical Rebreather diving.

CCR is a natural progression from SCR or maybe entered into directly for experienced technical divers or experienced Scuba divers who have want to enjoy the benefits of CCR diving.

The major difference between SCR and CCR is that with SCR, it is a little less technical and very simple to operate with some expired gas being expelled into the surrounding water with every 4th or 5th breath or so... And CCR is more technical and more training is required also, more expensive to buy! The CCR does NOT vent expired gas and is therefore mostly SILENT and gets you closer to marine life in general... Popular for photography and UW Video work for this reason. 

ITDA Highly recommends AP Diving - Rebreathers..
