RAPID DIVER FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is CASE Inc.'s role in developing the Rapid Diver?
The Rapid Diver was invented in 2002. In 2008, Wyatt Werneth (former Ocean Rescue Chief) outlined the PSD/NFPA and training standards, as well as provided research and development towards what is currently the Aqualung Rapid Diver Pro.
The Orange County Sheriffs Dept was the first operation to deploy the units (2002).
How much time do you get underwater with the Rapid Diver?
The physics are the same. An average diver breathes about 1 cu ft per minute. The standard tank for professional use is the 27 cu ft steel tank. We have reports of 30+ minutes in 30 feet or less.
Is the Rapid Diver "Made in America"?
Yes, made in the USA.
Is the Rapid Diver "Universal fit"?
Yes
How long does the Rapid Diver take to deploy?
With the straps pre-adjusted the unit takes less than 15 seconds.
What is a Yoke vs DIN?
DIN is required for rescue work and a yoke is for sport use. The downside of the yoke is that the O ring wears much faster than the DIN and because DIN is more durable for a working environment.
Where can I get the Rapid Diver Serviced, inspected?
The Rapid Diver can be serviced by our qualified dive equipment repair specialist. Our technicians are very familiar with the Rapid Diver system and can take care of annual maintenance and inspections.
