Cressi Start Equipment Dive Package, BCD XS2/AC2 Regulator, XS Octo, Mini 2 Gauge Console

The XS Compact AC2 Regulator is an exceptionally dependable non-balanced flow-by-piston designed 1'st stage regulator that is a great choice as a new diver's rig, or for use as a stage bottle regulator system. The 1'st stage has 1 HP port and 4 LP ports and is made from marine grade chromed brass for long life and durability. A conical filter is used which has greater surface area for higher air flow characteristics through the 1'st stage regulator.

The XS Compact Second-Stage housing is made of durable non-corrosive hi-tech polymers and has a dependable downstream demand valve mechanism. The flow of air is channeled to the mouthpiece by injection, creating a venturi effect enhancing the performance. The 2nd stage comes with a flow deviator that acts on the venturi effect, with dive/pre-dive adjustment function. Large soft purge cover allows easy clearing of 2'nd stage and a comfortable silicone mouthpiece.

The Cressi Mini 2 Gauge Console Global is a small compact console that houses the Cressi Mini-Manometer Pressure Gauge and a small, analog depth gauge. Both gauges are ready to travel the world with you with both imperial and metric gauge face readouts. A true world travel instrument console. Both gauges are high-quality instruments with the pressure gauge built with a chrome plated brass case and the depth gauge has a diaphragm membrane actuated function. Both gauges have a large circular easy-to-read scale.The instruments are housed in a small, modern shaped console boot, made from polycarbonate and desmopan, (a thermoplastic polyurethane) two materials that guarantee protection from shocks, scratches and which, at the same time, is very light.At the end of the console, slightly to the sides, there are two eyelets for fastening the instrument to the BCD or harness with a clip or lanyard so that it does not hang down with the risk of catching and damaging the environment or the instruments.

The luminescent face of the 230' (70m) depth gauge, the first 40' (12m) of depth readings are in 10' (3m) increments, (which correspond to the area of decompression stops) and are widely spaced for ease-of-reading. For at-a-glance monitoring of depth, the face is divided into 2-different colored zones: white up to 120' (40m) and red from 120' (40m) to the end of the scale. The instrument has a maximum depth indicator that stops on the maximum depth reached during the dive.This function is extremely handy for logging of dive information.

The Mini Global Pressure Gauge luminescent dial reads from 0 to 5000 psi (0 to 350 bars). Like the depth gauge the instruments face is divided into different colored zones for at-a-glance monitoring of air the area from 0 to 600 psi (0 to 50 bars) and is highlighted in red with a solid bar and red stripes. The gauge has a built-in pressure relief valve. Pressure gauge is equipped with a 7/16" threaded high-pressure hose. The instrument console is made in Italy.

Designed primarily as a rental BC for resorts and dive schools, the Start Pro gives students and customers the stability of a jacket style BC and the convenience of weight integration. Diver operators will appreciate its "bullet-proof construction" using 1000 and 500 Denier Cordura and large, easily seen size markings on the shoulder. Integrated gravity type weight pockets use rugged quick-release buckles for easy ditching of weight in an emergency and can hold up to 20 lbs. (9kg) of soft or hard block lead weights. BC has 2-large cargo pockets with hook and loop closures and D-rings all for accessory storage and attachment. A rigid padded backpack and carry handle provide stability and ease of transport.

Buoyancy control is made easy with the 3-exhaust valves and Cressi's Power Inflator that comes standard with a 3/8" threaded low-pressure quick-disconnect hose. Adjusting the BCD to size is facilitated by the torso adjustable shoulders, sternum, and waist straps. All straps are equipped with "squeeze-style" side-release buckles for quick-and-easy donning and doffing. The Start Pro BC provides lift capacities of 29.2 lbs. to 45 lbs. (13.25kg to 20.14kg) depending on the size. BCD has a single cam cylinder band and comes with an owner's manual.
