Abstract
This is the second report covering evaluation of individual components of the standard U.S.N. mixed-gas scuba. A modified gas regulator with drilled orifice is tested and found to meet specifications. The breathing bag adjustable relief valve is tested and found to meet specifications with minor modification.
