The Containerized Rescue and Hyperbaric Treatment Chamber System (Decompression Chamber), manufactured by PBUCH S.A., consists of a two-compartment pressure chamber complete with equipment in a specially adapted, 20 feet insulated container. The system is used for the treatment of ilnesses and injuries, which occur as a result of increased hydrostatic pressure and to carry out training exercises for submarine crew members and divers. The equipment was designed to hold maximum 14 people, where 10 places are located in the rescue and treatment compartment and the remaining 4 in the rescue and transfer compartment.
The equipment, being the primary medical safety element of the sea rescue systems, can be used in the following ways:
rescue actions when administering help to the submarine crew members,
underwater works where the depth ranges up to 100 mH2O,
treatment of diving illnesses and administration of hyperbaric oxygen therapy,
carrying out specialist examinations and medical procedures,
carrying out pressure training exercises,
carrying out other pressure procedures where a human finds himself in the conditions of increased pressure.
