Abstract
The present invention relates to instrumentation for underwater use powered by means of a battery and provided with a pressure sensor capable of periodically detecting pressure values inside the main body of the instrumentation.The present invention also relates to a method for detecting possible pressure drops inside the main body of the instrumentation over time.The instrumentation of the present invention enables carrying out efficient and inexpensive self-diagnosis of the pressure inside the body of the device, every time the battery is changed or also during manufacture of the instrument.
