DiveAlertPLUS is a specially designed,
small, light weight pneumatic signaling device that uses
quick-connect/disconnect hose couplings to become an integrated part of
your power inflator. Installation is easy and takes only a moment.
DiveAlert
PLUS uses a small amount of air from your SCUBA tank
to make a piercingly loud sound in air or water. People have been able
to hear a DiveAlert
PLUS one mile away from a diver in need above water. In conditions where visibility is limited, a DiveAlert
PLUS can be a life saver. Underwater you can sound for attention quickly with a squeeze of the device.
NO MODS REQUIRED
DiveAlertPLUS does not require any
modification to your equipment, and it does not interfere with the
normal operation of your equipment. The DiveAlertPLUS comes in three different models to accommodate different connectors: DV1, DV2, and DV3.
EASY TO USE DESIGN
Once the tank is turned on and the DiveAlertPLUS connected, squeeze the DiveAlertPLUS
softly underwater for a subsurface signal. Or squeeze it firmly on the
surface for a loud surface signal blast. Check that DiveAlertPLUS is installed correctly and functioning properly before every dive. Also be careful not to point DiveAlertPLUS toward yourself or toward anyone who is in close proximity to you when you activate the surface signal (it’s really loud!).
HOW IT WORKS
The DiveAlertPLUS uses chrome-plated
brass couplings to attach to your power inflator. Squeezing the device
engages the actuator valve stem causing a small amount of air to flutter
a stainless steel diaphragm, emitting a piercingly loud sound from the
injection-molded thermoplastic body. The subsurface / underwater signal
is produced by a percussion "buzzing" noise made by a piston hitting a
stainless steel diaphragm much like a drum.

One-Year Limited Warranty
Ideations design, Inc., warrants DiveAlert
PLUS to
be free from defects in materials and workmanship for
one year from the date of purchase from an authorized
DiveAlert
PLUS dealer. If any functional defects appear
in a DiveAlert
PLUS unit within the one-year warranty
period, the unit will be either repaired or replaced at the
option of Ideations Design, Inc.
Maintenance
After each use, DiveAlertPLUS should be rinsed
with fresh water. This is especially important after use in chlorinated
swimming pools and in other water having corrosive substances.
Additionally, it is highly recommended that you blow the water out of
DiveAlertPLUS before storing. This can be done by pressurizing
and activating both the surface and subsurface signaling elements. We
recommend that you cup your hand over the surface signaling element to
muffle the loud noise.
