CPSC, Pelagic Pressure Systems Announce Recall of SCUBA BC Inflators
Product Description
The recall includes Oceanic-brand Reliant BC inflators and AERIS-brand AW3 BC inflators. The Oceanic Reliant-type inflators have three flow-through holes in the hand grip of the lower inflator mechanism. The AERIS AW3 inflator has one flow-through hole in the hand grip of the lower inflator mechanism.
Reason for Recall
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.
