Balanced Relief Valve

A critical accessory for any drysuit diver, the Balanced Relief Valve (aka "Pee Valve") supports a well-hydrated diver, especially on long dives. Without a relief valve, divers tend to intentionally dehydrated themselves to avoid the "urge" during an extended bottom time dive. Hydration is critical to avoid decompression sickness and with our Balanced Relief Valve proper hydration is no longer a concern.

Machined from Delrin, the Relief Valve is light weight so it will not add stress to drysuit material and it is corrosion resistant. The Relief Valve is equipped with a one-way valve so that the tubing is equalized with the air pressure inside the drysuit, which prevents the tubing from becoming crushed and stopping flow.

The Dive Rite Relief Valve comes with a balanced pressure equalization kit and 12 inches of kink-resistant tubing. The tubing connects easily to most condom-style male catheters. Replacement catheters are available at most drug and medical supply stores, or directly from Dive Rite Express . The valve is easy to install and maintain, and can provide years of reliable service.
