Captain Dale, Greg, I was under the impression that some free flows or freeze ups occur even more so in icey water 42F /- due to the amount of moisture in the air or gas fill you receive.... not only the design of the reg..... True? Also, why then do some gas blenders say they won't fill if the dew point is too high for this reason? is this nonsense? ~Jul CaptnDale@ao*.co* wrote: > In a message dated 7/31/00 8:58:00 PM Central Daylight Time, > gzambeck1@me*.ne* writes: > > << So your willing to say that a MK10 used 200 ft under the ice on air, set > to these > pressures (125 to 145 psi above ambient) is not going to freeze up on me? > Is this > statement also good for Trimix (TX12/45) at 330 under the above condition?. > This > is in consideration of the specific heat of the gas mixtures. >> > > No, Greg, that is not what I said.
