Arcair’s Underwater Self-Contained Cutting Package is designed to provide the trained diver with a portable self-contained unit for underwater exothermic cutting. The cutting package has been tested at a working depth of 60 feet. The Underwater Self-Contained Cutting Package provides the diver with the necessary tools for cutting operations including:

• A rechargeable Battery Pack used for igniting approximately 20 cutting electrodes per charge. Re-charge time takes approximately 3 hours. (Pack comes with its own charging system.)
• An Arcair Sea-Torch® Combination Torch with a 3/8” collet chuck to accept the Sea-Jet® or Sea-Dragon® exothermic cutting electrodes.
• A specially designed Striker Assembly allowing the diver complete control of electrode ignitions. By squeezing the striker lever and touching the cutting electrode, with oxygen flowing, electrode ignition occurs and the cutting operation begins.
• Two 60 cubic foot aluminum oxygen cylinders providing enough oxygen to burn approximately ten cutting electrode. Also included is a pre-set oxygen regulator, set for 75 p.s.i., ensuring the best cutting rates with the Sea-Jet® electrodes.
• The Underwater Self-Contained Cutting Package has a buoyancy device used to control and stabilize the pack during descent, ascent and while the pack is at the cutting location.
