The vacuum pump system is used for checking the watertightness of underwater camera housing before submerging
- Use the hand pump to create a vacuum inside of the housing. Wait for a few minutes or several hours and check to see that the vacuum has held; Draw a vacuum on your housing to check for leaks prior to entering the water. It's a simple check that helps you guard against large, catastrophic leaks.
What I should know before Getting it:
- 1. Please make sure that your underwater camera housings are with Vacuum Pump System Design;
- 2. Can I dive with my camera housing with VPS-100 Mounted on?
- If you are using the housing for snorkeling or using it in a pool or diving above 40 meters, please feel free to use the VPS-100 with your housing, it will provide you better experience-you can always check the alarm color and sure that your housing is Vacuum;
- But Keep in mind that Diving under 40 Meters, all equipment will under great pressure, so if your housing is Vacuum, it will cause the housing to be damaged, we don't recommend using the Vacuum System for Deep Diving!
- (Just like the housing, please make sure that both O-Rings of VPS-100 are in a good performance and don't forget to put on the lid of the electronic valve before diving)
- 2.Can this Vps-100 prevent housing fog?
- If the camera is inserted in the Underwater Housing while in an environment with high humidity, it is possible moisture in the air that was trapped inside will evaporate and cause the Underwater Housing to fog up.This typically happens when the camera is taken from one temperature extreme to another; when using the camera underwater (with housing), camera will continue produce hot, so the camera housing inside and outside will be in difference temperature, that will case housing to fog up, so if the housing is vacuum, there is not air in the housing, so it can aviod fog, but please kindly note that the housing is not able to be 100% vaccuum, so we suggest to use it together with Anti-Fog Inserts or Anti-Fog pad;
