About: Pony bottle

An Entity of Type: Whole100003553, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A pony bottle is a small diving cylinder which is fitted with an independent regulator, and carried by a scuba diver as an extension to the scuba set. In an emergency, such as depletion of the diver's main air supply, it can be used as an alternative air source or bailout bottle to allow a normal ascent in place of a controlled emergency swimming ascent. The key attribute of a pony bottle is that it provides a totally independent and redundant source of breathing gas for the diver. The name pony is due to the smaller size, often of only a few litres capacity.

dbo:abstract
  • A pony bottle is a small diving cylinder which is fitted with an independent regulator, and carried by a scuba diver as an extension to the scuba set. In an emergency, such as depletion of the diver's main air supply, it can be used as an alternative air source or bailout bottle to allow a normal ascent in place of a controlled emergency swimming ascent. The key attribute of a pony bottle is that it provides a totally independent and redundant source of breathing gas for the diver. The name pony is due to the smaller size, often of only a few litres capacity. Pony bottles are used by divers who understand that no matter their preparation and planning, accidents may happen, and cannot, or do not choose to depend on another diver for emergency breathing gas. They are carried by the diver in one of several alternative configurations, and the capacity and contents should be sufficient to allow a safe ascent from any point in the planned dive profile. (en)
  • Этапный баллон (от англ. Stage bottles, Pony bottle, калька стейдж, разг. пони-баллон) — баллон для дайвинга, выполняющий функцию хранилища газа для прохождения декомпрессионных остановок, отрезка пути (например — при исследовании пещерных систем) или в качестве резервного источника дыхания. Имеет систему креплений, позволяющую цеплять стейдж за D-кольца на подвеске/компенсаторе плавучести. Данная система нужна для осуществления возможности смены баллонов с исчерпанным запасом газа на полные или на баллоны с другим составом газовой смеси. Для этапных баллонов применяют регуляторы с манометрами с коротким (10-15 см) шлангом высокого давления и одним лёгочным автоматом. (ru)
