    BUOYANCY CHAMBER - Pressure INFLATING THE BUOYANCY CHAMBER • Place the adapter corresponding to the diameter of the semi built-in valve at the inflator hose nozzle.

  • Page 15 BUOYANCY CHAMBER - Pressure RISK OF PRESSURE LOSS: EXAMPLE: Your boat is exposed to direct sunlight on the beach (temperature=50°C) at the recommended pressure (240 mb/3.4 PSI). When you launch it (temperature=20°C), the temperature and internal pressure of the inflatable compartments will drop simultaneously (up to 120 mb) and YOU WILL THEN NEED TO REINFLATE until you regain the millibars lost due to the difference between the ambient air and water temperatures.
