Buoyancy Compensator Devices

Dynamic Design solutions & game changing innovations for a safer and more comfortable dive

​

 

Dive1’s formula for the perfect BCD comes from listening to the smallest details we craved and missed; making theories and ideas become practical. Every diver is not the same and divers should always have the choice of their own configuration for each diving condition, in cold or warm waters, ensuring their safety and comfort.  High quality is standard with no compromise. Dive1 Formula BCD’s performance would linger in your mind waiting for your next perfect and excellent dive.

OVERVIEW

FORMULA SERIES BCD

C. Ferrari

FORMULA [F-SERIES] BCD is the perfect solution made for all divers, men or women, novice or technical, light weight for travel yet uncompromised for high performance in cold or warm waters.

​

Configurable to any diving condition, the FORMULA BCD is built extraordinarily tough with a double bladder construction.

​

Available in 11L / 25lbs & 15L / 35lbs single tank wings designed narrower for a more streamlined shape,

​

And in  13L / 30lbs & 18L / 40lbs single tank wings designed with a traditional donut shape (including detachable elastic straps to streamline the wing inward when deflated)

TESTED TRUE LIFTS

​

All Dive1 FORMULA wings have been engineered to be within +/- 1% of the per pound lift capacity

FORMULA SERIES BCD IS BUILT IN COLLABORATION WITH ITALY'S

TECHNICAL EXPERTS OF SCUBA EQUIPMENT AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS...

HYDPRO power inflators, with an advanced piston based system (“EDGE” patented system), has been designed and manufactured for extreme conditions: high-depth diving and any other situation where the usual airflow simply won’t do. Softness of the buttons improves its ease of operation, and its gradual inflation system allows for precision buoyancy and maximum control. This is the top solution in HYDPRO’s technical/ professional range. Each power inflator is monitored with its own serial number

 

In addition to light weight, techno-polymer components ensure a better response to low temperatures and excellent resistance to any kind of scale deposits accumulation and encrustation.

 

HYDPRO P04 low profile connections and O.P.V. (Over pressure valves / dump valves) are made of high performance polymers with combined resistance to shocks and high tensile strengths for extreme temperatures

Configurable High Performance

WE SET THE STANDARDS...

DIVE1’s front adjustable harness using soft Tetoron polyester two inch webbing is rigged to the revolutionary travel light soft backplate. The techno polymer reinforced soft backplate is layered with TPU coated 420 denier high-tenacity nylon front & back and non-water absorbent foam and added comfort. This full size soft backplate has two integrated 5lb (2kg) weight  pockets fixed to the back center of the soft backplate in effort to provide the best positioning and distribution of the weights at the diver’s balance point for an easier & comfortable horizontal trim.

Harness webbing is weaved similar to a metal backplate. DIVE1’s front adjustable harness is preinstalled

Designed to fit snug and tailor to your back

 

Neoprene shoulder pads with repositionable tabs and mesh lined backplate Pad have been added for maximizing comfort. Made with special 20mm thick non-water absorbent foam, the backplate Pad dries quickly and easily detaches and mounts onto the soft backplate using marine engineered hook and loops.

P04 O.P.V.

For divers, using devices made by Hydpro means relying on the best conditions underwater...

HYDPRO P04 over pressure valves are manufactured in compliance with UNI – EN 1809:2016, but have been further tested for stress, corrosion, strength, functionality, solidity, and safety far beyond regulatory requirements.

 

Both the P04 low profile connection and O.P.V. have structural designed solid threading with a trapezoidal section that preserve the tightening torque, maximum sealing, and guarantee top tensile strength. Coupled together with the P04 flange (retainers) HF welded to the inner bladder.

 

HYDPRO gaskets are manufactured in liquid silicone rubber (LSR) to ensure efficient sealing in all conditions and high resistance to wear. The new designed O.P.V. disk gaskets prevent risks due to interference between the cord knot and gasket.

HYDPRO Inflator is connected to the flange/retainer on the left shoulder and the P04 O.P.V. is mounted on the flange located on the right shoulder for pre-assembled configurations. Depending on the diver’s preference, the connection can be switched left & right or HYDPRO’s P04 plug can be alternatively installed to replace the shoulder dump valve.
