Measures to prevent accidental flooding
Before explaining how to use the many features of the D-180 we recommend first understanding
some essential practices that will greatly reduce the main causes of accidentally flooding the
D-180. The D-180 is waterproof due to a rubber O-ring that seals the internal circuitry from the
elements. There is only one user serviceable O-ring: the Battery Box O-ring. This O-ring
requires frequent inspection and care to ensure its watertight integrity. Since most flooding
occurs due an O-ring related problem we strongly recommend you to inspect the O-ring (and clean,
grease or replace as necessary) each time before using the strobe. Equally important are O-ring
contact surfaces. Check the contact surfaces for contaminants or scratches. We cannot stress
enough the importance of making O-ring related inspection and maintenance a habit and essential
part of your pre-dive equipment preparation routine.
O-Ring inspection locations
Inspect and maintain these three points:
Battery Box O-ring
Battery Box O-ring groove
Battery Box outer cap O-ring contact surface
O-ring inspection methods
These are the essential factors to ensure proper O-ring function:
The O-ring itself
O-ring contact surfaces
O-ring grooves
If O-ring is properly seated in groove
