Suunto Product Recall

Posted in:

Suunto has today issued a product recall of all Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitters and Suunto Tank PODs.

Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitters

The Finnish manufacturer has identified a potential safety risk affecting all Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitters and Suunto Tank PODs that wirelessly transmit cylinder pressure to compatible Suunto dive computers.

In two reported incidents the exterior case of a Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitter has failed during regular dry land pressure testing. Although extremely rare, there is the potential for injury because of the risk of bursting.

Suunto state that diver safety is of highest importance to them, hence they have initiated a recall of all Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitters and Suunto Tank PODs.

All divers who have a Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitter or Tank POD are instructed to take their products to an authorised Suunto dive dealer or a Suunto Authorised Service Centre for inspection and upgrade. The process is free of charge for the consumers. All Transmitters and Tank PODs must not be used before the upgrade has been made.

As a complementary service, Suunto will provide a battery replacement free of charge and a one-year warranty from the date of inspection for all upgraded products

Suunto sincerely apologises for any inconvenience caused by this.
