Phad Overview
Housing
The casing of the SCUBAPRO Phad 8 battery pack is made of ABS,
a lightweight, low-friction and wear-resistant plastic. The casing of the
SCUBAPRO Phad 8 light head is made of salt water resistant aluminum.
These light heads have been treated with three processes to produce a hard,
corrosion-resistant surface.
Water Tightness
The Phad 8 battery packs and light heads obtain their water tightness by
means of durable NBR O-rings. These O-rings are extremely important and
require your special care and attention. The O-rings must be free of impurities
and grooves; they should shine slightly due to silicone grease. If not, the Orings
should be cleaned with a soft cloth that does not shed fl uff and then lightly
greased with silicone grease. Every time the SCUBAPRO Phad batteries are
replaced, the condition of the O-rings should be checked. It is advisable to
replace these O-rings when in doubt about their condition and in any case after
approximately 50 dives. They must be replaced with great care. The condition
of the seal’s surface should also be checked for damage.
Rinsing
After each dive, it is highly recommended to rinse your SCUBAPRO Phad
battery pack and light head with fresh water. While rinsing make sure that the
battery pack is attached with light head and umbilical (if applicable) to prevent
water entering the system.
