IDEST are pleased to add a new Additional Visual Inspection (AVI) label to our catalogue for inspection and test centres.
The idea of these labels has come about following requests for uniform standard labelling to indicate a visual inspection more frequently than the usual 30 month PI. Diving cylinders in some countries must be visually inspected annually or are subject to the “High Risk of water ingress” status through regular emptying underwater with some commercial operations. They also serve to support emergency raft or BA set use where inspections through a company protocol or insurance also require more frequency. The use of these labels allows the PI and PIAT quadrants to remain in place until retested as there have been occasions where centres have been changing quadrants to indicate the next required frequent visual inspection.
The new label can be found in the shop here
