Maximum operating depth

MOD (m) =10  metres times    left [left ({ppO_2over FO_2} right ) - 1right ]

In which ppO2 is the desired partial pressure in oxygen and the FO2 is the decimal value of the fraction of oxygen in the mixture. For example, if a gas contains 36% oxygen and the maximum ppO2 is 1.4 bar, the MOD (m) is 10 metres x [(1.4 / 0.36) - 1] = 28.9 metres.
