CPSC, Pelagic Pressure Systems Announce Recall of SCUBA BC Inflators

CPSC · 04210 · published 2004-09-02

CPSC campaign 04210

Hazard

Inflator buttons can stick, which can cause uncontrolled inflation of the BC. This could cause divers to ascend too fast, resulting in decompression sickness as well as the danger of an embolism.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using BCs fitted with the recalled inflators immediately and take them to any authorized Oceanic or AERIS dealer to get a free repair.
