To my knowledge no one has measured it. However it is a mute point. You will prolong the onset of hypercapnia by using a passive system but it can still bite you. I had a flooded cannister last spring and had to bail out on open circuit. If you are aware with a passive system you should be able to vent through your nose about every third breath and stay ahead of the game. I just opted to go to a good open circuit EANx mix and wash everything out. The new odessey looks sharp.I'm waiting to pick up my updated system in about 4 weeks.
