IS-MIX is a new semi-closed rebreather from Interspiro based on the well-proven concept of ACSC and DCSC systems which have been in operation for over 30 years and have an excellent track record. These forerunners have been used under active service conditions to 150 meters and in simulator conditions to 450 meters.

The IS-MIX is extremely simple and fast to prepare and operate. The breathing work is minimal due to large diameter hoses and hydrostatic balanced breathing bellows. The set is neutral in water giving ease and exactness in diving procedures. Maintenance costs are very low and most service can be made with little or no tools. The field test equipment is easy to operate and the documentation is precise and easy to follow.
Apart from excellent magnetic signatures and acoustic qualities, the safety aspect has been given high priority. An active breathing warning device, a manually operated by-pass function, an automatic buoyancy control valve, and separate harness life jacket systems ensure comfortable handling and increased diving safety.

Main components
Gas cylinders for gas mixture, with mixes appropriate for various diving depths.
These cylinders use the benefits of the Divator Lite carbon fiber-wrapped cylinders but in a non-magnetic version
Control unit is composed of:
• Dosage volume selector for different gas mixtures and depths
• Dosage regulator and warning system
• Hydrostatic valve
• By-pass valve
• Reserve gas valve
• Pressure gauge
Breathing circuit is composed of:
• Absorber housing with absorber canister
• Breathing bellows that measure the current breathing volume of the diver and
dose out the correct amount of fresh gas into the breathing circuit.
• Gas diffuser to significantly reduce the acoustic noise.
• Full face mask or a mouth piece with hoses.
Carrying BC (vest) contains
• Emergency life vest.
• 1 litre carbon fiber composite 300 bar cylinder for dry suit inflation.
• Hose with regulator for dry suit and BC (vest) inflation.
• 1 litre carbon fiber composite 300 bar cylinder for emergency vest inflation.
• Hose for emergency vest inflation.
