7. BAllASTInG SYSTEM
The total weight must be calculated and tested in order to maintain a neutral buoyancy since
you change depth during the dive, by simply adding or releasing the correct amount of air.
The SCUBAPRO BC.has been designed for three ballasting systems, based on the use of the
‘Ecoweight’ (soft sealed weight, patented by SCUBAPRO) developed to improve comfort, to
reduce wear of the pockets and to protect the environment as well.
7.1 Standard weight belt
It is the traditional harness weight belt, separate from the BC.
7.2 Integrated Weight Pocket System (BW) (proprietary)
(some models: see models features) (fig. 4)
These removable pockets are inserted in the BC compartments (fig. 4-3) held in position by
the buckle (fig. 4-4) with the strap pulled by the “D” ring: in case of need, by disengaging the
buckle (fig. 4-5, 4-6) it is possible whether to release the weights for emergency or, simply, to
transfer the weight pocket to the boat, at the end of the dive.
See models features for maximum acceptable weight.
