Technical information
operating altitude:
with decompression – sea level to
approximately 4,000m/13,300ft
without decompression (gauge
mode) – at any altitude
Max operating depth: 330.5m/1,084ft;
resolution is 0.1m until 99.9m and 1m at
depth deeper than 100m. Resolution in
ft is always 1ft. Accuracy is within 2%
±0.2m/1ft.

0.8m to 120m
Maximum environment pressure: 34bar
Smart transmitter maximum working
pressure: 300bar/4,350psi
digital compass:
- resolution: 1°
- accuracy: +/– 1° + 5% of tilt angle
(example: at 50° tilt, accuracy is
+/–3.5°)
- tilt angle: up to 80°
- refresh rate: 1s
clock: quartz clock, time, date, dive time
display up to 999 minutes
oxygen concentration: adjustable
between 21% and 100%
operating temperature: –10°C to
+50°C / 14°F to 122°F
Power supply:
- Galileo: CR12600SE or CR2NP
- High-pressure transmitter: CR2450
Life of the battery:
- Galileo: 3-5 years or 300-500 dives.
Actual battery life depends on the
number of dives per year, the length
of each dive, the water temperature
and the usage of digital compass and
backlight.
- High-pressure transmitter: 3 years
or 150-200 dives. Actual battery life
depends on the number of dives per
year, the length of each dive and the
water temperature.
5.2
Maintenance
The tank pressure gauge and the parts of
this product used to measure tank pressure
should be serviced by an authorized
SCUBAPRO UWATEC dealer every other
year or after 200 dives (whichever comes
first). In addition, the depth accuracy
should be verified every two years. Aside
from that, Galileo is virtually maintenance-
free. All you need to do is rinse it carefully
with fresh water after each dive and change
the battery when needed. To avoid possible
problems with your Galileo, the following
recommendations will help assure years of
trouble-free service:
- avoid dropping or jarring your Galileo
range:
- do not expose Galileo to intense, direct
sunlight
- do not store Galileo in a sealed
container, always ensure free ventilation.
If there are problems with the water
contacts, use soapy water to clean Galileo
and dry it thoroughly. The housing of Galileo
can be treated with silicone grease, but
do not apply silicone grease to the water
contacts!
- Do not clean Galileo with liquids
containing solvents.
- Check the battery capacity before each
dive.
- If the battery warning appears, replace
the battery.
- If any error message appears on
the display, take Galileo back to an
authorized SCUBAPRO UWATEC
dealer.
5.2.1 Replacing the battery in Galileo
We recommend having the battery of Galileo
replaced
by
UWATEC dealer. The change must be made
with particular care in order to prevent water
from seeping in. The warranty does not cover
damages due to an improper placement of the
battery.
Galileo
stores
information in non-volatile memory, so the
battery can be replaced at any time between
dives without loss of information.
