It sounds like you already know the answer you want, but the answer depends upon which certification agency you want the answer for. For most "sport" agencies, the maximum operating partial pressure is 1.40 with an emergency contingency pressure of 1.60. However ANDI, sets the maximum operation pressure at 1.45 and some technical agencies set it at 1.3 once you go deeper than 100 feet or 30 meters.

What three factors cause the partial pressures of gases in the alveoli to differ from pressures in the atmosphere?
You know, the factors of partial pressure
How does the total pressure of a mixture of gases relate to the partial pressures of the individual gases in a mixture?
total pressure = sum of all partial pressures.
What are the characteristics of partial pressure?
Dalton's law of partial pressures) states that the total pressure exerted by the mixture of non-reactive gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of individual gases.
What law states that the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of its individual gases?
The pressure of each gas in a mixture is called the partial pressure of that gas.
What does Dalton's law of partial pressures?
The total pressure of a gas mixture is the sum of the individual pressures.
What does Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures say?
The total pressure of a gas mixture is the sum of the individual pressures.
What is the partial pressure of a gas pressures in the mixture?
The partial pressure is the pressure exerted by just one gas in the mixture.
Does Dalton's law of partial pressures state that total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressures exerted independently by each gas in the mixture?
Yes. That is True. Dalton's Law is: that pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressures exerted independently by each gas in the mixture. Reference: Human Anatomy and Physiology Marieb and Hoehn
Why do you express respiratory gas values in the body as partial pressures?
not sure
Who developed the concepts that the total pressure of a mixtures of gases is the sum of their partial pressures?
That's called Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures, which should give you a hint.
What is the total pressure of a gas mixture containing partial pressures of 0.23 ATM 0.43 ATM and 0.98 ATM?
According to Dalton's Law, the total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures of all gases present. Thus Ptotal = 0.23 atm + 0.43 atm + 0.98 atm = 1.64 atm
How does the total pressure of a mixture of gases relate to the partial pressure of the individual gases in a mixture?
total pressure = sum of all partial pressures.
