AFETY DEVICE
A torque-limiting device is installed between the motor and the propeller. When the
resistance felt by the propeller exceeds a certain torque, this device is triggered,
preventing the propeller from rotating.
The device will generate a rhythmic sound signalling its insertion. If this
situation occurs, release the trigger immediately, switch off the power by
means of the main switch and free the propeller of the foreign body.
Do not leave the torque-limiting device inserted for more than 10
seconds. It has been conceived for emergency purposes and may be
damaged by prolonged use.
If conditions allow you to remove the foreign body safely during the dive, then do so.
Otherwise let go of the ADV. Do not lubricate the safety device.

LECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL SAFETY SYSTEMS APPLIED TO
THE
ADV
XK
1
In order to insure maximum diver safety when using the ADC, various solutions were
implemented to eliminate possible fault risks or potential injury.
19.1 E
LECTRONIC ENGINE CONTROL
The electronic engine control board includes:
A short circuit emergency fuse (on replaceable at authorized service centres);
Temperature sensor (slows propeller rotation to a stop. The system automatically
restarts when the engine is cool);
Maximum absorbed current sensor (maximum current that can be absorbed by the
electrical engine, fully automatic, to protect electronic parts);
Engine ignition sensor without mechanical contacts (the sensor is not a reed or
mechanical type but inductive).
19.2 E
LECTRONIC BATTERY CONTROL
The battery includes:
An emergency thermostat (if a battery charger fault occurs that overload the battery when
charging, the thermostat prevents battery overheating by cutting off the charge)
Cut off (in the event of depletion, it eliminates electric absorption cutting off the power
supply. It is restored when the battery is charged)
Overcharge. (If a battery charger fault occurs that overload the battery when charging).
Short circuits protection. Every cells has an electronic protection system against the
accidental short circuit, in any case
DO NOT SHORT CIRCUIT THE BATTERY
