Limited Recall on Apeks Exotec BCD

Aqualung Group have initiated a limited recall on the Apeks Exotec BCD which could cause a loss of buoyancy.

“When the BCD is inflated, the grey pull dump knob retracts towards the stitched channel of the jacket. The channel then prevents the knob from further retracting and slightly opens the dump valve and prevents the BCD from fully inflating. HAZARD: This can result in a loss of buoyancy control and poses injury (decompression sickness) and drowning hazards“
