Externally Generated Light (EGL) Systems for Hyperbaric/Hypobaric Chambers.

Abstract

Lighting systems for hyperbaric/hypobaric chambers are described. Methods of interior illumination without introduction of any potential fire source in the chamber are presented. The systems utilize light generated outside of the chamber environment, filtered for reduction of infrared radiation, and then introduced through either large (viewport sized) or small (pipe sized) transparent hull penetrations. Accessory devices for use with externally generated lighting (EGL) systems are also described. (Author)
