OTTO Introduces The OTTO 20 Meter Diver Headset

Friday, May 12th, 2017

Carpentersville, IL (May 10, 2017) – OTTO Engineering, an industry leader in the design and manufacture of two-way radio accessories for industrial, public safety, and military applications is pleased to announce the launch of its new OTTO 20 Meter Diver Headset.

IMG_1569

The 20 Meter Diver Headset is a premium quality maritime headset designed to meet the physical demands that come with multiple dives to 20 meters or for missions in conditions where the presence of water is a concern. The headset features a single anti-fungus padded earphone cup, a ruggedized in-line push-to-talk button, adjustable boom microphone and an open-weave cloth headband.

The OTTO 20 Meter Diver Headset has been tested to military standards for durability, salt water immersion, humidity, shock, extreme temperature fluctuation and exposure to fungus. The headset comes with a fully immersible push-to-talk button that will not self-actuate when subjected to the tremendous amount of pressure that is present 20 meters under water.

OTTO’s rigorous testing has successfully taken the headset through a substantial number of 20 meter dives. These tests include immersing the headset to 20 meters for several minutes, returning the headset to the surface, and repeating the cycle over and over. In addition, OTTO performs its tests with a significant temperature differential between the headset and the water to ensure that the headset will not leak from the combination of temperature variation and extreme pressure.

Because the OTTO 20 Meter Diver Headset is sealed against salt water, no dive bag is needed for the headset. The Diver Headset is compatible with a variety of military, public safety, and industrial two-way radio platforms. The headset is made in the USA at OTTO’s manufacturing facilities located in Illinois and is Berry Amendment compliant.
