BC System Weighting

Active Control Ballast

Halcyon ACB (Active Control Ballast™) integrated weight pockets are an ideal solution for divers seeking releasable weight for their Halcyon BC system. This patented Halcyon design is simple and effective; when complemented by our fixed and removable ballast options, these pockets fine tune system weighting while supporting stability and diving comfort.

Key Features of ACB Weighting Systems

  • 20-lb. ACB System (10 lbs/4.5 kg side)
  • 10-lb. ACB System (5 lbs/2.3 kg per side) – New vertical orientation consumes less space
  • Simple tri-glide connection secures the ACB on the Harness waist band
  • Allows mounting of an Explorer Primary light behind the ACB pocket
  • Side release buckle prevents accidental weight loss but can be quickly released
  • Can be used with most soft or hard dive weights
  • Removable weight pouch features an easy-carry handle
  • Halcyon’s ACB Integrated Weight Pockets are protected by US Patent 6527480

 


Halcyon Trim Weights

Halcyon tank-mounted trim weight pockets are yet another novel Halcyon invention. This patented product supports optimal weight distribution, encouraging diving comfort and in-water stability. While at the surface, Halcyon trim weights promote a heads-up position, counteracting the positive tendency of buoyant cylinders. These same weights support a horizontal position while under water, reducing effort and encouraging diving fun.

Key Features of Trim Weights

  • Up to 5 lb/2.27 kg of weight per pocket
  • Built from ballistic nylon with a Velcro closure; a sturdy buckle ensures the weights remain in place
  • Designed to fit securely onto the tank straps
  • Excellent for travel, allowing you to fit additional weight upon reaching your destination
  • Halcyon trim weight pockets are protected by US Patents 5855454 and 6530725b1.

 


Weighted Single-Tank Adapter

Divers who are able to remove unnecessary weight from their waist enjoy greater comfort and better in-water position. The Halcyon weighted single-tank adapter places an additional six pounds between the backplate and single cylinder, removing weight from your waist and encouraging a more comfortable in-water position. The weight is easily removed during travel or when less weight is required.
  • Attaches securely to Halcyon Eclipse BC Systems
  • Epoxy-coated 6-lb. (2.7 kg) weight is easily removed
  • Removable weight may be purchased as part of the Halcyon BC systems

 

 


Twin Set Weights

This adjustable integrated weight system allows double tank divers to reduce the need for bulky hip weights. The V-Weight mounts between manifolded cylinders to provide precise weighting, allowing you to carry the minimum removable weight to facilitate a swimming ascent.
Available in 2lb, 4lb or 6lb weights.
