Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitter and Suunto Tank POD recall

07/2017

Suunto announces a recall of all Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitters and Suunto Tank PODs

Suunto has identified a potential safety risk affecting all Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitters and Suunto Tank PODs which wirelessly transmit tank air pressure to compatible Suunto dive computers. In two reported incidents, the exterior case of a Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitter has failed during regular dry land pressure testing. Although extremely rare, this represents a potential risk of injury due to the risk of bursting.

Diver safety is of highest importance to Suunto. That is why Suunto has decided to initiate a recall of all Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitters and Suunto Tank PODs.

All consumers who have a Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitter or Tank POD are instructed to bring their products to an authorized Suunto dive dealer or a Suunto Authorized Service Center for inspection and upgrade. The process is free of charge for the consumers. All Transmitters and Tank PODs must not be used before the upgrade has been made.

Suunto sincerely apologizes for any inconvenience caused by this. As a complementary service, Suunto will provide a battery replacement free of charge and a one-year warranty from the date of inspection for all upgraded products.

What to do if you own a Suunto Wireless Tank Pressure Transmitter or a Suunto Tank POD

You can also use the free Suunto Online Service Request (only available for certain countries) to get your product(s) picked up from your home/office.   

  3. What will happen in the inspection and upgrade?
    During the inspection, products will be opened and inspected. The battery as well as the o-rings for water sealing will be replaced. The plastic case of the product will also be replaced.

    You will receive two additional safety parts; one of which must be added to your Transmitter or Tank POD depending on if connected through a high pressure hose or directly to the first stage. This is in order to minimize the amount of pressurized air inside the product.

What can I ask it?

Plenty. Plan a workout for today, build a running route, compare this month with last, check a trend like your resting heart rate, or ask whether you’re ready to push. If it relates to your training, recovery or adventures, ask away.

Can I connect my own AI, like ChatGPT?

Suunto AI Coach is designed to work natively with your Suunto data, so you get connected, reliable guidance without handing your training data to outside tools. The focus is a seamless in-app experience rather than plugging in external chatbots.
