Buoyancy Adjustment
The ALEXA 35 Housing features adjustable buoyancy and trim. 4 and 8 oz trim weights
can be secured to the housing to adjust bouyancy and trim precisely to your liking.
Three general locations are available to add/remove and adjust trim weights.
✓
Shell Base. The base of the Front and Rear Shells has accessory rails for 4 and
8 ounce weights. They are secured and adjusted forward and aft for trim.
✓
Top accessory rails. The top of the shell has three rails (used for handles and
monitor) that can accommodate 4 and 8oz weights.
✓
Port Ring. The top and sides of the Port can also accept 4 and 8oz weights. To
do so, unthread the thumbscrew from the base, and then mount directly to the
small boss on the Port Ring.
✓
Battery Shell. Trim weights can be mounted on the back face of the Battery
Shell, as shown below.
