Halcyon Big Diver's Alert Surface Marker Buoy – 4.5-Foot Closed Circuit SMB for Enhanced Diver Safety

The Halcyon Big Diver's Alert Surface Marker Buoy (SMB) is an essential safety device designed to provide maximum visibility and redundant flotation for divers. Measuring 4.5 feet (1.4 meters) in length, this closed-circuit SMB ensures that divers can signal their position effectively, even in challenging conditions, thereby enhancing safety and peace of mind during dives.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • High Visibility: The 4.5-foot length and vibrant color options (orange, yellow, or pink) make the diving buoy easily noticeable on the surface, aiding in quick location by dive teams or surface vessels.

  • Closed-Circuit Design: Equipped with a one-way valve, the SMB prevents gas loss at the surface, maintaining full inflation until the diver decides to deflate it. This feature ensures consistent buoyancy and visibility.

  • Overpressure Relief Valve: The integrated overpressure relief valve allows for safe deployment from depth, as it releases excess pressure during ascent, preventing potential damage to the SMB.

  • Compact and Portable: When deflated, the diver down buoy fits conveniently into a Halcyon thigh pocket or backplate storage pack, making it easy to carry without adding bulk to the diver's gear.

  • Durable Construction: Made from high-quality materials, the SMB is built to withstand the rigors of diving, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Detailed Description:

The Halcyon Big Diver's Alert surface marker buoy is designed with diver safety as a priority. Its substantial length and bright color options ensure that divers are easily spotted on the surface, even in rough seas or low-visibility conditions. The closed-circuit design, featuring Halcyon's No-Lock® connector, allows for inflation using a low-pressure inflator hose or orally, providing flexibility based on the diver's preference and situation.

The inclusion of an overpressure relief valve is a critical safety feature, as it allows the diver down buoy to vent excess gas during ascent, preventing over-expansion and potential rupture. This makes it suitable for deployment at depth, a valuable asset in emergency situations where immediate surface signaling is necessary.

Despite its size when inflated, the diving buoy is designed for convenience. It deflates to a compact size, fitting neatly into a pocket or storage pack, ensuring it doesn't hinder the diver's movements or occupy excessive space.

Specifications:

  • Length: 4.5 feet (1.4 meters)

  • Lift Capacity: Approximately 40 lbs (18 kg)

  • Design: Closed-circuit with overpressure relief valve

  • Inflation Methods: Low-pressure inflator hose connection or oral inflate

  • Color Options: Orange, Yellow, Pink

  • Reflective Tape: Equipped with Coast Guard approved SOLAS reflective tape for enhanced visibility

  • Storage: Compact design allows it to fit into a Halcyon thigh pocket or backplate storage pack when deflated
