Contacts for rebreather parts.

General Supplies

• CO2 Absorbent - Any members that need absorbent should contact Paul Davis at Drager Australia who tells me that they have a product called Divesorb Pro available. This is basically a high grade of the Dragersorb 400 and comes only in a 5l (4.5kg) container @ $40.00 ea. Freight is added ex-Melbourne. It is also available from their distributors at around the same price. Paul mentioned that this is the current Military preferred product and they go for the 5l only now as it keeps fresher and reduces danger to contamination or exposure.
