Need way to make nitrogen gas release after set period of time

[heyismeman]

If this makes sense, I want to take a fuck ton of Xanax then allow the gas to send me away, I'll be using scuba mask well fashioned. Is there any way to set it up so the tank begins releasing gas after a set time frame.

You would need to construct an automated mechanism consisting of a 3 way valve + actuator like this: 3 way valve and a timer. This would require some tubing and installation for an already complex system. The idea is that while the valve is in its initial position it allows normal air to flow through, and when the timer gives a signal, the actuator will divert the valve to allow the inert gas to flow through to the mask. There are some technical issues to overcome here, + time and testing and of course some $. Its a great idea though. Dreamy way to CTB.

Very doable. You would need a normally-closed, solenoid-activated gas valve of some sorts, along with a timed power supply that would send the necessary voltage at a preset time to the solenoid which would, in turn, open the valve. Everything is available on the "jungle" site.

The valve exists and can be purchased but how would one set up a timer system is the issue I'm finding

You will still need a way to allow air to flow to the mask so breathing can be normal before flowing in the inert gas. So one normally closed valve will not allow this.

I guess I found it, 3 way solenoid valve

Actually seems quite simple the website also sells a timer that you just plug and play

Well, I don't know what length of time the OP is planning to "delay" the onset of the nitrogen, but if it's any long length of time, they could include a normally-open solenoid valve with a plastic tube for air, which could also be activated to closed position at the same time the nitrogen valve is opened, all with the same timed power supply unit.

So now all you need is to find tubing that allows connecting the inert gas outlet to the valve on one port, and tubing to connect the valve to the mask on the second port, with out leaking. The third port can be left as it is to allow air flow. You also need to test the system to see if the valve allows free enough flow of air to be comfortable.

I'm sure looking around more you can find similar and cheaper.

You can probably find a similar timer that operates in the same fashion, except one where you could set specific times to activate it, instead of the one I linked about whereby you can only select intervals.

Yea I think that will do it, perfect actually. Set timer for 40 mins, 30mg of Xanax, go to sleep, boom.

One thing is you need to make sure that whatever solenoid valves you get operate on the same voltage (12v) that the timer is putting out. Some operate on 24v. A better timer would have adjustable output to match voltage requirements.

Also, you could just buy an ac/dc plug in transformer and then hook up one of those timed relay devices to the solenoid valves. Lots of options.

Actually, you don't have a bad idea. I completely understand the reasoning behind wanting to be unconscious before nitrogen starts flowing.

Actually, I "toyed" with an idea like this for my CO setup. Planned on taking something to knock me out right after lighting coals. Then going into tent and passing out. Some time later an electric winch would pull buckets of coals on a cart into the tent, after I was knocked out, through a "tunnel" I constructed into the tent. The cart would have a arm on it that would close a door in the tunnel to keep CO from escaping. All very doable, but for me might not be necessary, if I can get CO level up to a very high level that will cause me to go unconscious after a few breaths, which shouldn't be an issue.

That's not a bad idea either, but yeah I think I'll probably use this method, I don't think there's a more peaceful way to go honestly, I would be afraid of the panic from the gas all at once as it's moving your body into a completely different state in seconds, i would imagine one would panic, this way i truly die in my sleep

This one is the winner, perfect actually. The timer system I'll have to look for later

 

[devils~advocate]

Im curious what this entire setup would look like.
I guess my only caution would be the if the gas is released at a latter time, where does the breathable air come from before that happens?
I assume thats where the 3 way valve comes into play.

ב''ה,
Is that brass B&H?-looking one gas rated? Not bothering to look it up and just reminding y'all to make sure because it's kind of stupid to make this more of an arduous engineering fiasco than it has to be.

Also, a fresh system that only has to work once, what am I supposed to say, I wish y'all the best, but if you've ever worked around air tools something is always leaking from somewhere, so with the little plastic tubing fittings for the first shown valve style as looks promising for this setup I'd say a reasonable number of spare fittings might make things easier. That is, for 2 or 3 connections a bag of a dozen or two dozen is probably cheap enough and appropriate just to not be caught short. Think it uses that style, anyway.

Can't say I've put a lot of thought into this approach but fairly obviously the ID of SCUBA tubing probably suggests a good sized orifice for comfortable breathing, although to avoid uncomfortable CO2 buildup in the mask.. they usually use a mouthpiece, right? If full face masks are out there the fresh air side might benefit from some pressure (fan? fresh air tank?) so the hour of fresh air doesn't get stuffy.

Let us know if it works I guess?

 

[devils~advocate]

These electrified 3 way valves seem to be for liquids & gases.
A lot of the ones I am seeing use 9-24vdc.
Is there way to have a timer switch that plugs into the wall (110v) then that gives power to an adapter (24vdc)?
Then the adapter powers this 3 way valve.
When the timer switch functions based on the time programmed......it sets into motion the power to the adapter then to the 3 way valve.
(Maybe I am visualizing this all wrong)

One valve is open for normal air until the time switches

Yeahh I got it off of the first one hahaha. I was just ashamed that it took more than 20 seconds lol

You know, for some reason this site's administrators frown upon mentioning the "A" site by name, possibly because they don't want this site indexed by search engines when people search for "A", but I really don't know. I think there's something mentioned in the rules about not referencing specific sites by name. But, people do it all the time on here. That's why I only called it the S. American jungle site. Just an old habit.
