1.3 ATA vs 1.5 ATA Mild Hyperbaric Chamber: How to Choose and Order Custom
Standard HEAOCEAN chambers work at 1.3 ATA. 1.5 ATA is available as a custom configuration. This guide explains how to choose and what to confirm before you order.
Lead times run from 30 to about 45 days depending on order size, counted from confirmed order and configuration.
1.3 ATA vs 1.5 ATA Mild Hyperbaric Chamber: How to Choose and Order Custom
Every HEAOCEAN portable soft-shell chamber works at about 30 kPa (about 1.3 ATA) as standard. That covers the sitting YCDR-HS050, the lying YCDR-HL050, and the integrated YCDR-HC050.
If your market or customers ask for 1.5 ATA, we can build it as a custom configuration. A higher number is not automatically a better choice, so this guide helps you decide and order with clear terms.
Quick rule: Choose 1.3 ATA for standard supply. Choose 1.5 ATA only when your market, customers, or brand plan specifically calls for it.

Quick Answer: Which Pressure Should You Choose?
Start with what your buyers actually ask for. If nobody asks for 1.5 ATA, the standard 1.3 ATA chamber is the simpler choice.
| If You Need | Choose | Why |
|---|---|---|
| The standard product for most buyers | 1.3 ATA | Standard configuration on all three models |
| A specific 1.5 ATA product for your market | 1.5 ATA custom | Built to order on any of the three models |
| A trial before a larger order | 1.5 ATA, one unit | Orders from one unit are accepted |
| A lower unit price on a custom order | 1.5 ATA, 20+ units | Larger orders have the best price |
What Does ATA Mean?
ATA stands for atmospheres absolute. One atmosphere is normal air pressure at sea level, so 1.3 ATA means about 1.3 times that level.
For the standard chambers, 1.3 ATA corresponds to about 30 kPa of working pressure. Always ask for the pressure to be written in the quotation and spec sheet.
1.3 ATA at a Glance
The three standard models share the same pressure. They differ in shape and position.
| Model | Type | Dimensions (mm) |
|---|---|---|
| YCDR-HS050 | Sitting | 1600 x 650 x 1200 |
| YCDR-HL050 | Lying (cylindrical) | Diameter 750 x length 2000 |
| YCDR-HC050 | Integrated sitting and lying | 2000 x 650 x 1200 |
All three offer oxygen output of 5 L/min and oxygen concentration of 93% +/- 3%. To choose a model first, read our sitting vs lying vs sit-lie chamber guide.
Why Is 1.5 ATA Custom Only?
1.5 ATA is available as a custom configuration only and is not kept in regular stock. The equipment and chamber configuration stay the same as the standard model.
What changes is how the order is handled. It is built to order, so it has its own lead time and pricing. All three models can be made at 1.5 ATA.

Which Order Size Fits Your Plan?
The unit price for 1.5 ATA is higher than the 1.3 ATA standard model, and larger orders have a better price. The lead time starts after the order and configuration are confirmed.
| Order Size | Lead Time | Price Position | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 unit | Within 30 days | Highest unit price | Sample check |
| 2 to 9 units | Within 35 days | Lower than a single unit | Trial order |
| 10 to 19 units | Within 40 days | Lower again | Small batch |
| 20+ units | About 45 days | Most favorable | Bulk supply |

How to Talk About a 1.5 ATA Order
Clear wording avoids delays. Cover these points in your first message.
- Confirm the model. Choose HS050, HL050, HC050, or a mix.
- Confirm the quantity tier. Lead time and price depend on it.
- Confirm the start date. The delivery clock starts after the order and configuration are confirmed.
- Write the pressure clearly. The quotation, spec sheet, manual, and labels should all say "1.5 ATA", not "high-pressure version".
- Check local requirements. Confirm import and marketing rules in your destination yourself.
Distributors can also read our hyperbaric chamber manufacturer guide for distribution and OEM.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Writing "high-pressure version" instead of "1.5 ATA" on documents.
