Scubapro® X650 Diving Regulators Recalled for Drowning Hazard
06177 · Recalled 2006-06-07 · CPSC page
Description
The recall involves some X650 second stage regulators. All X650 second stage regulators are clearly marked with a blue capital "X" next to the numbers "650" in white. Affected regulators have a visible bump located on the right side of the unit between the letter "C" and where the mouthpiece attaches to the regulator body.
Hazards
A manufacturing error could cause the main housing of some regulators to change shape over time, which could cause the cover and diaphragm to become dislodged. If this occurs, air flow will be interrupted and the regulators will no longer function, posing a drowning hazard to users.
Reported injuries
None reported.
Remedy
Consumers should stop using the product immediately and contact Scubapro® to determine if they have an affected second stage regulator. If so, they will receive a free replacement regulator. The company is contacting registered owners of the product directly.
