Dive Safety

Hyperbaric safety.

Wherever you need it!

We are proud to present the HYPERLITE 1 portable hyperbaric chamber, thanks to our collaboration with SOS Group. The HYPERLITE 1 is an innovative and versatile solution for delivering hyperbaric treatment in any environment.

Lightweight, compact, and easily transportable, it enables treatment in emergencies, evacuations, and remote areas, offering the same level of safety and effectiveness as a fixed facility.

Thanks to its advanced technology, it is an invaluable piece of equipment for military personnel, rescue teams, divers, and medical professionals in situations where speed and reliability are paramount.

The Hyperlite 1 is the world leading portable hyperbaric chamber and the only internationally approved non-metallic chamber capable of any 100% Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). Key features include:

All 100% (hyperbaric) oxygen treatments
Transfer-Under-Pressure at altitude
Human lift (4-6 personnel)
Rapid Transportation including parachute delivery
Treatment pressure of up to 2.3 Bar/3.3 ATA

Control Panel

Provides simple controls to increase chamber pressure, decrease chamber pressure and control which breathing gas is supplied to the patient. The control box also indicates the pressures of the gas supplies and is equipped with an oxygen valve for emergency oxygen shut-off.

3

Chamber Monitoring System

New for 2020 is a continuous chamber monitoring system providing constant 02, CO2, Temperature, Humidity and Pressure. The software contains high and low alarms that will alert the operator if chamber conditions become abnormal. The software also has the capability to display diver depth.

Portable Gas Supplies

This recommended package provides oxygen for the patients’ breathing gas and air to pressurise the chamber and for patient air breaks. It comprises 3 x 15 litre oxygen cylinders and 2 x 15 litre air cylinders rated at 232bar (3360psi) with two harnesses for cylinder transportation. This is sufficient to complete a US Navy Dive Table 6 (4 hours 45 minutes treatment). Other Gas Supply set-ups are also available

Key Features Details

Weight

The lightest portable hyperbaric chamber on the market

With a combined weight of just 50kg (without the patient) the Hyperlite 1 is the most lightweight hyperbaric chamber capable of all 100% oxygen therapies. It can be lifted and carried by 4 or 6 personnel and is suitable for helicopter or crane winch. What’s more, it’s light enough for check-in on commercial international flights.

Packaged Size

Transport with ease

The Hyperlite 1 is highly portable, suitable to be carried and assembled by just two personnel. It can be split into three case or four case options with minimal storage requirements. The Hyperlite 1 system has been transported in a small compact vehicle and operated inside a helicopter cabin, small vessel and even a submarine.

Certifications

Global certifications & the most extensive testing

Hyperlite Chambers are the most extensively tested hyperbaric chamber in the industry. We combine medical device certifications with military approval as well being the first and only non-metallic portable hyperbaric chamber capable of all 100% oxygen therapies that is approved by the US National Standards ASME-PVHO. In addition, our systems are approved for ‘transfer-under-pressure’ – used for treating a patient, whilst transporting them to a medical facility.

Maximum Operating Pressure

All 100% hyperbaric oxygen therapies

The Hyperlite 1 exceeds other fabric bodied hyperbaric chambers in many aspects of operation, but perhaps none-moreso than the pressure ratings. With a Maximum Operating Pressure (MOP) of 2.3 Bar (g) or 3.3 ATA, the system remains the only non-metallic portable hyperbaric chamber to be capable of all 100% oxygen therapies including an 18msw (60 fsw) US Navy TT6 Dive Table.

Maximum Operational Altitude

The altitude advantage

The capability to continue treatment whilst at altitude provides benefits both in patient care and from an operational perspective. For those suffering from pressure related injuries, an increase in the altitude may enhance/cause recurrence of symptoms. By placing the patient under pressure in a Hyperlite Hyperbaric Chamber, hyperbaric oxygen can be administered to improve the condition of the patient, whilst allowing the pilot to evacuate without low-altitude flying restrictions. Treatment in a Hyperlite 1 System, allows full US Navy Table 6 treatment up to an altitude of 5,300 metres (approximately 17,000 ft) in an unpressurised air cabin. By at higher altitude, the aircrafts fuel consumption is reduced and scope for flight durations or distances are extended.
