Shearwater Petrel 3 Monitor (4-Pin): The Rebreather Diver’s Command Center
Technical diving demands absolute precision and reliability from your instrumentation. The Shearwater Petrel 3 Monitor (4-Pin) builds upon a legacy of trust, offering rebreather divers a robust, connected experience. This unit serves as a hardwired external monitor for your closed-circuit rebreather (CCR), giving you critical data when you need it most.
Real-Time Loop Monitoring
This specific model utilizes a 4-pin connector to interface directly with your rebreather. Through the External Monitoring Mode, you get real-time PPO2 monitoring of 1 to 3 oxygen sensors. This immediate feedback allows you to verify your setpoint and loop status at a glance. You can select between a standard 18-inch (45.7 cm) cable or a longer 30-inch (76.2 cm) cable, allowing you to route the connection perfectly according to your rig's configuration and your personal preference.
Visibility in Any Condition
Whether you are deep inside a wreck or managing a decompression stop in low visibility, reading your computer should be effortless. The Petrel 3 features a stunning 2.6-inch (6.6 cm) AMOLED display. The high-contrast screen remains crisp and easy to read from any angle. A toughened glass lens and a titanium bezel armor the screen against the inevitable knocks and scrapes of technical diving, while piezo touch buttons ensure you can navigate menus easily, even with thick drysuit gloves.
Comprehensive Gas Management
Managing multiple cylinders is standard procedure for tech divers. The Petrel 3 simplifies this via Air Integration (AI). You can pair up to four Shearwater transmitters to this unit. This capability lets you monitor your loop pressure, diluent, and bailout gases all on one screen, reducing the mental workload during complex dives.
Alerts You Can Feel
Visual alarms can sometimes get lost in the noise of a high-stress situation. Shearwater solved this by integrating a strong vibration alert system. If a critical limit is reached, the computer physically buzzes your wrist, demanding your attention immediately.
Power and Maintenance
Traveling to remote dive sites often means leaving specialized charging stations behind. The Petrel 3 runs on a standard, user-changeable AA battery. Whether you use the recommended Energizer Ultimate Lithium for up to 60 hours of dive time or a standard alkaline found at a local shop, keeping your computer powered is simple and stress-free.
Modes for Every Mission
While optimized for CCR monitoring, this computer adapts to any dive plan:
- CC EXT: Closed circuit real-time monitoring of 1 or 3 O2 sensors.
- SCR EXT: Semi-closed monitoring of PPO2 for 1-3 O2 sensors.
- CC/BO: Closed circuit fixed PPO2 with quick open-circuit bailout.
- OC Tec: Multi-gas, trimix decompression computer.
- Gauge: Bottom timer with stopwatch and dive logging.
