Halcyon Diver's Alert Surface Marker Buoy 3.3' – Compact and Reliable SMB Signaling Device
The Halcyon Diver's Alert Surface Marker Buoy (SMB) is a compact, 3.3-foot (1 meter) closed-circuit diving buoy designed to enhance diver safety by providing maximum visibility and redundant flotation. This essential piece of equipment ensures that divers can signal their position effectively, even in challenging conditions.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Compact Design: At 3.3 feet in length, this diver down buoy is easily manageable and ideal for divers seeking a portable yet effective signaling device.
-
Closed-Circuit Inflation: Features a closed-circuit design that prevents gas loss at the surface, ensuring the diving buoy remains inflated and visible.
-
Integrated Over-Pressure Valve (OPV): Equipped with an OPV that allows for safe inflation at depth without the risk of over-expansion, enhancing diver safety.
-
Versatile Inflation Options: Can be inflated using a low-pressure inflator hose or orally, providing flexibility based on the diver's equipment and situation.
-
High Visibility Colors: Available in orange, yellow, or pink, allowing divers to choose a color that stands out best in their diving environment.
-
Compact Storage: When deflated, the diver SMB fits conveniently into a Halcyon thigh pocket or backplate storage pack, ensuring it doesn't impede the diver's movements.
Detailed Description:
The Halcyon 3.3' Diver's Alert Surface Marker Buoy is engineered for divers who prioritize safety and reliability. Its closed-circuit design ensures that once inflated, the SMB maintains its form without gas escaping, providing a stable and continuous surface marker. The integrated over-pressure valve allows divers to inflate the buoy at depth confidently, knowing that excess pressure will be safely vented, preventing potential damage.
This diver down buoy is particularly useful in scenarios where divers may become separated from their group or surface vessel. Deploying the dive SMB allows for immediate location signaling, reducing the risk of prolonged separation. Its compact size and ease of storage mean that it can be carried on every dive without inconvenience, making it an indispensable tool for both recreational and technical divers.
