The design of the CS-3, a three-person capacity preprototype CO2 collection subsystem, is described. It is noted that the function of the CS-3 is to remove metabolically produced CO2 from the Spacelab cabin to maintain atmospheric pCO2 at 400 Pa or less. Results are presented of an extensive parametric/endurance test program characterizing the subsystem's performance. The results demonstrate the suitability of the electrochemical depolarized CO2 concentration concept for possible use in the Space Operations Center. The CS-3 is found to meet or exceed all Regenerative Life Support Evaluation requirements. Specifically, the 0.13 cu m, 46 kg subsystem is able to remove CO2 at an equivalent rate of 3.4 persons from an air stream having a pCO2 of 400 Pa.
