Diving Equipment: Buoyancy Compensators - Functional and Safety Requirements, Test Methods
Also Known As:
A European standard known as BS EN 1809:2014+A1:2016 outlines the functional and security criteria for buoyancy compensators used in diving equipment. These buoyancy compensators, which are of the inflatable variety, let divers regulate their buoyancy underwater. These devices may have provisions for carrying breathing apparatus and weights in addition to buoyancy control.
The standard specifies the performance requirements and necessary parameters that these buoyancy compensators must achieve in order to guarantee user security and dependable operation. It also describes the test procedures that manufacturers ought to use to determine conformity with these specifications.
It's vital to remember that this standard only applies to buoyancy compensators and excludes other kinds of personal gear, including life jackets, personal flotation devices, and rescue equipment.
