underwater breathing apparatus
An underwater breathing apparatus allows a person to breathe while submerged underwater, where there is no natural oxygen. It supplies breathable air from a compressed air tank or other sources through a regulator that reduces high-pressure air to a safe level. Common types include scuba gear, which includes a mask, fins, and a tank, enabling divers to explore underwater environments safely and comfortably. These systems are designed to ensure a continuous supply of air, maintain suitable pressure, and provide visibility and comfort during underwater activities.
