The Newest Dimension in Scuba Diving Safety.
Responding to customer demand Ideations, Inc. has created the first true surface and sub-surface diver signaling device.
Traditionally, SCUBA divers have relied on whistles as their only audible surface signaling device. But, if a diver is disabled and can’t blow into the whistle, the whistle makes no sound at all. Equally frustrating and dangerous, if a diver needs to attract the attention of someone who is too far away to hear the whistle, the whistle is of no help.
Or, what would you do if you wanted the attention of your dive buddy, for whatever reason, and he was simply distracted and not paying attention to you at that very moment? Traditionally, you would be forced to swim up to him or her until you got their attention.
In contrast, DiveAlert Plus enables divers at the mere touch of a button to generate a loud blast of sound on the surface that can be heard up to a mile away! Or, by switching the DiveAlert Plus diverter valve for Subsurface signaling the diver can now signal for his dive buddy’s attention underwater!
DiveAlertPlus is a specially designed, small, light weight pneumatic signaling device that uses quick-connect/disconnect hose fittings to become an integrated part of your power inflator. Installation is easy and takes only a moment.
DiveAlertPlus does not require any modification of your other equipment, and it does not interfere in any way with the normal operation of your other equipment.
When you need to get someone's attention on the water’s surface, you simply select “AIR” operation with your diverter valve, press the button and DiveAlertPlus uses a small amount of air from your SCUBA tank to make a piercingly loud sound.
Or, when you want to get someone’s attention under the water’s surface, you simply select “H2O” operation with your diverter valve, press the button and DiveAlertPlus uses a small amount of air from your SCUBA tank to make a percussion noise to alert your dive buddy.
Installation - DiveAlert Plus connects between the power inflator and the low-pressure hose by means of its quick-connect/disconnect hose fittings.
Operation – Operation is as simple as selecting the desired function with the diverter valve and pressing the activator button. To select surface signaling, move the diverter valve so the pointer lines up with the “AIR” graphic. To select subsurface / underwater signaling, move the diverter valve so the pointer lines up with the “H2O” graphic.
Just make sure that before every dive you check that DiveAlert Plus is installed correctly and functioning properly. Also be careful not to point DiveAlert Plus toward yourself or toward anyone who is in close proximity to you when you activate the surface signal or loss of hearing could result.
Maintenance – After each use, DiveAlert Plus 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 DiveAlert Plus 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.
