Maintenance

 

 

No other maintenance procedures that you can do yourself other than those described in sec-
tion After Dive is needed. If your RB Wing is heavily contaminated and dirty, or after your last 
dive for the season, it is possible to wash the RB Wing in a washing machine. Valves and inside 
PU bladder shall NOT be washed in a washing machine. Unscrew all APRV:s and the inflator 
from the bladder. Unzip the bladder and remove the inside PU bladder.
Tumble drying is prohibited.
Always let your RB Wing dry completely before storage over a longer period of time. Always 
store the RB Wing partially inflated.

Store in a place which is not exposed to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight. 
Do not rest heavy objects on the BC.

Expected lifetime for inside PU bladder is 10 years, but can vary depending on usage. 
Poseidon recommends replacing the bladder after maximum 10 years from the date of manu-
facture, or earlier depending on condition and usage.

Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure to chlorinated water, such as in swimming pools. 
Wash your BC immediately after any use in chlorinated water. Chlorinated water can oxidize 
fabrics and materials on your BC, shortening its life, and cause colours to fade. Damage and 
fading from prolonged exposure to chlorinated water is specifically not covered under warranty.

Servicing

 

 

It is extremely important for your safety that you keep your equipment in good condition. 
You need not carry out any other maintenance than described in previous section. 
The RB Wing should be inspected yearly by one of POSEIDON´s authorised service locations. 

Look for the POSEIDON Authorised Dealer sign. Inspection does not include a service overhaul, 
which only takes place if damages or malfunctions are discovered when inspected.

If you are using RB Wing with gasses having elevated oxygen content (Nitrox), you must inform 
the servicing location about it.
They will then always undertake a re-cleaning of the inflator and your inflator feed hose.
