The basic personal equipment
Mirror: the mirror in
different waterproof swimming, diving mask with the nose to balance the pressure
capsule, and can prevent water entering the nasal cavity.
Snorkel: Yes,
when people do not have my head in the snorkeling can also be carried away from
the surface to breathe in scuba diving activities, scuba diving are usually
carried out through the breathing tube surface operations (such as the
observation of the underwater environment, etc.).
Fins: Provides
underwater impetus. And swimming is different from scuba diving just relying on
the legs of the campaign to achieve the move, while the hands are usually used
for other things (such as water under the photo, manipulation of other
equipment, apparatus, etc.).
Diving wetsuit : even in the hottest days of
tropical diving, the best phase should wear wetsuit suitable for diving,
because the temperature in deep water is relatively low, while the diving is
usually the case, as swimming is not as intense, cold may cause fatigue, slow,
muscle cramps and other symptoms, so a set of fit, the thickness suitable for
the diving wetsuit is absolutely necessary.
Buoyancy adjuster (BC): is to
control the buoyancy device. On the water so that divers can easily float on the
water, in the underwater, you can fine-tune the BC through the air to achieve
the best buoyancy state (neutral buoyancy).
Cylinders: usually installed
inside the high-pressure air or gas mixture for divers using underwater
breathing. Cylinders require regular inspection and send professional bodies,
for the general diving lovers, rarely buy their own gas cylinders, usually only
to dive shops rent.
Air pressure regulator: Man can not be inhaled
directly inside the high-pressure gas cylinders, which need to carry out the air
pressure regulator pressure regulator. Regulator is controlled by a head and two
head composed of a header used to connect BC, two heads are used to breathe, and
many divers are equipped with a spare two heads.
Meter diving: diving
instruments are necessary for pressure gauges, depth gauge, compass, dive watch
With weight and weight belt: weight is to balance the divers themselves,
diving suits, all kinds of diving equipment, etc. generated by buoyancy, usually
weight is the Lead, and by a weight belt around the waist tied to the divers,
such as the the event of certain emergency situations requiring immediate
rising, divers can quickly unlock a weight belt, and abandon the counterweight.
(In this case needs to be emphasized is that in the deep-water floating to the
surface quickly is very dangerous)
Auxiliary diving equipment
Dive Computers: can record the diving activity of the data, and can be
directly to the divers decompression time prompted important parameter.
Diving knife: for many purposes, mainly to prevent divers were fishing
lines, nets or seaweed wrapped when used.
Diving Buoy: Diving buoys must
be placed in the water, to inform the surface vessel to avoid.
Diving
Diary: used to record your diving experience and the best diving activities by
the time the dive to sign to prove.
Drug box: used to put some commonly
used drugs, such as Band-Aid, seasick medicine, cold medicine, clothes and other
laxatives.
Underwater Records Board: These are used, and underwater
submarine with full communication.
Underwater torch: essential tool for
night dive.
Equipment Bag: designed to be placed diving supplies,
equipment, of course, the best to carry valuable things (such as dive
computers).
