Aqua Lung Recalls Scuba Regulators and Adapters Due to Drowning Hazard

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Recalled product: Aqua Lung Recalls Scuba Regulators and Adapters Due to Drowning Hazard

The hazard

Over-tightening of the DIN retainer by a technician during installation can result in the retainer breaking under pressure, a rapid escape of air from the scuba cylinder, and the regulator detaching from the scuba cylinder. This poses a drowning hazard to divers.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled diving regulators and DIN adaptors and return them to any authorized Aqua Lung dealer for a free replacement DIN retainer.
