The DRYFOB-XL Container is a waterproof dive housing for popular PLB (Personal Locator Beacon) models and marine radios as well as communicators and rugged flip phones that can be used in a marine emergency. It is IPx8 rated to 330ft (100m).
The interior of the DRYFOB is 2.75" (70mm) by 4.80" (122mm). Please check that your device fits before ordering or check with us.
Note that this canister has a large interior cavity. Picture that it can hold a can of soda! The buoyancy when empty is 11.9 oz (338g) and it weighs 7.8 oz (221g).
The patent pending DRYFOB-XL design is machined out of a solid piece of rugged aluminum alloy and anodized for additional strength and corrosion protection.
Dual O-rings and ample threads are used to provide a waterproof seal.
There are two 4mm x 8mm oval attachment points on the lid which can accommodate a (not included) lanyard, bungee, ring, or clip.
There is also a small 3mm drill through hole on the bottom lip for attaching the top to the cannister for added security. Again, no attachments are provided but many divers will use a bolt-snap and some bungee, or a hoseclamp and bungee cord or a pocket to hold their DRYFOB-XL.
Each DRYFOB-XL comes with a small supply of silicone lube and a set of spare O-rings.
