CRESSI Ellettra BCD M

ELETTRA combines a traditional structure with a remarkable climbing capacity due to its oversized air chamber in the dorsal area. Its profile is especially hydrodynamic. It is a very balanced model in terms of resistance, pocket capacity, comfort and with a very contained price. Under water, this translates into a very adherent and hydrodynamic jacket, which offers very little resistance when moving forward. It is extraordinarily practical for the transport of minimum volume and weight: 2.5 kg (size M) and, thanks to its self-folding structure, a very small stowage volume. Very light and flexible back pack to fulfill its function without adding weight or volume to the set. Completely covered with comfortable neutral buoyancy padding made of a closed cell material that prevents the accumulation of water or air and, therefore, reduces the inherent buoyancy of the vest and facilitates quick drying. Excellent stability and fixation of the bottle thanks to the non-slip fabric on the back of the back pack, its two rigid angled guides and the design of the lumbar air chamber that acts as a guide for the bottle. SPWB Self Pivoting Waist Band.The cummerbund is modular and easily replaceable, it is anchored to the bag by means of a rotating lug that allows it to be angled to adapt to the diver´s body configuration. It incorporates an extremely simple ventral cummerbund length regulation system. Rounded pockets in Cordura 1500 D, exceptionally wide and very accessible with robust YKK© 8 pitch zippers and bellows. System of axillary straps and low-profile lobes that guarantee great freedom of movement and that the entire upper chest area is free of oppression. LAS ballast system (2.0) Rubbery grip handle assembled directly into the pocket. LAS allows ballast management to be carried out automatically and intuitively, even with the BC on and in poor conditions (floating, rough seas, etc). The pockets that fit perfectly into their seats and a ´´D´´ ring located at the mouth of the access facilitates the tension of the fabric and the direct entry of the bag.Closure with spring effect of 15 mm of travel that compensates for possible accidental snags with ropes, etc. Released in two phases: the first, compensation and then the real release.The pockets are reinforced with a rigid plate to facilitate sliding, common to all sizes, from XS to XL, and identical for both the left and right sides. Capacity up to 4,5 kg Ventral strap independent of the bag so as not to compress the body during inflation and adjustable-length cummerbund. Height adjustable chest strap. Direct System Inflator, removable without tools for eventual cleaning operations “at seaside” in case of sand ingress. Exclusive double metal mesh filter system to prevent particles from entering the inflation valve. Anti-sand design that hinders the blocking action of possible grains of sand that enter the mechanism. Stainless steel D-rings with angled design and ´´Y´´ hose holder. Features: Great climbing capacity: - Due to its oversized air chamber in the lumbar area. - The Elettra back pack is very light and flexible to fulfill its function without adding weight or volume to the set. Completely covered with comfortable neutral buoyancy padding made of a closed cell material that prevents the accumulation of water or air and, therefore, reduces the inherent buoyancy of the vest and facilitates quick drying. The stability of the cylinder under water is not compromised thanks to the configuration of the air chamber that acts as a guide for the cylinder. - Angled guides to guarantee the stability and fixation of the bottle to the trellis. LAS ballast system(2.0): - Rubbery grip handle assembled directly into the pocket. LAS allows ballast management to be carried out automatically and intuitively, even with the BC on and in poor conditions (floating, rough seas, etc.). The pockets that fit perfectly into their seats and a ´´D´´ ring located at the mouth of the access facilitates the tension of the fabric and the direct entry of the bag. Closure with spring effect of 15 mm of travel that compensates for possible accidental snags with ropes, etc. Released in two phases: the first, compensation and then the real release. The pockets are reinforced with a rigid plate to facilitate sliding, common to all sizes, from XS to XL, and identical for both the left and right sides. Capacity up to 4.5 kg - Adjustable chest strap. Angled D-rings. 40 mm buckles. SPWB: - Self Pivoting Waist Band. The cummerbund is modular and easily replaceable, it is anchored to the bag by means of a rotating lug that allows it to be angled to adapt to each body configuration. - Detail of the innovative SPWB cummerbund and ventral strap system. Direct System Inflator: - Double metallic filter in the air inlet under the stem and cylindrical around the valve. Very robust body and attractive design. Recalibrated inflation speed, 50% higher (traditional size M vest in 4 seconds at 1 atm). Anti-sand design with minimized mouth inflator nozzle. Push button with wide gaps with respect to its seat to avoid the blocking action of the grains of sand. Drain button sealed by a silicone washer. Inflation button integrated in the profile to avoid unwanted inflation when pulling the trachea to empty. New very resistant trachea with very progressive curvature. Integrated hose-guide clamp. Ventral strap independent of the in: - Flatable bag and cummerbund. It allows you to fit to the limit with the vest deflated without causing pressure on the stomach when inflated. - Low profile discharge valve with activation by pulling the Direct System. Non-return valve that prevents the entry of water.
