When pressure is applied to the Aqua Group blow plug, the bungee strap stretches to allow water or air to flow freely. When pressure is relieved, the bungee strap instantly retreats and seals with a unique triple O-ring seal. The technology is reliable enough that it can be used as a hydrostatic relief valve at any depth, the company says.
