Closed
and Semi-Closed Lift Devices
Divers are discovering that lift bags are
useful for much more than just salvage and underwater lifting. Halcyon's lift
bags can be inflated through a low pressure inflator hose and feature a one-way
valve to ensure that the bag will maintain lift all the way to the surface.
Whether used as a marker device while at
depth, supplemental surface flotation, or as a signaling device, lift bags
provide an added margin of safety and comfort. Halcyon lift bags fold so small
they can store in the Halcyon thigh pocket or Backplate

Halcyon now includes a
Semi-Closed Circuit 60lb. Lift Bag in their lift device product line. Halcyon's
SCC 60 was designed to allow for easy lift inflation for a wet suit diver who
wouldn't otherwise have a spare low-pressure inflation hose handy. Designed to
be filled by a diver's second stage regulator, the SCC 60 combines the ease of
inflation of a traditional bell-bottomed lift bag with an over-pressure release
valve to dial in a precise amount of lift and to prevent damage caused by
over-inflation at depth.
SCC 60
- Semi-closed circuit design, perfect for wet suit divers
- Over-presure valve allows for lift
modulation during salvage lift operations
- Baffled inflation chamber prevents accidental dumping in rough
conditions
CC 80 & 185
Of course, Halcyon's Closed Circuit 80 and 185lb. lift bags are still the
industry standard for technical applications where precise control over lift
and surface control are essential.
- Closed circuit design means the object of a difficult search will
reach the surface without the risk of inadvertently dumping, losing
buoyancy
- Safety orange color is easy to spot by passing surface or air
traffic
- Available in 80 lbs. and 185 lbs. lift capacities
- All Halcyon lift bags attach to a low pressure inflator hose using
a No-Lock connector and can be orally inflated when necessary
