Surface Markers

Surface Markers and Lift Devices

We supply Surface Marker, Diver's Alert Markers and Lift Devices from our independent but related company Halcyon Dive Systems that probably has the most vast experience with diving in all sorts of weather, conditions and in all types of aquatic realms.

Life support markers and lift devices are an essential part of any diver’s equipment. Whether relaying your position to a topside crew or indicating separation from a dive buddy and/or boat, our range of high-quality surface markers are a crucial addition to your diving equipment. Halcyon lift devices offer redundant lift for safety or salvage; the Halcyon life raft and/or surf shuttle provide valuable support during offshore diving excursions.

Halcyon makes a wide array of Diver Alert Markers (DAM), surface flotation, and lift bags.

Key Features of the Halcyon Lift Devices

    * 200 denier nylon
    * Lifetime Warranty on welded seams
    * Closed-circuit, semi-closed, and open-bottom designs
    * Patented No-Lock® connector for closed-circuit devices; oral inflate or LP hose connection

Diver Alert Markers

Halcyon Diver Alert Markers provide maximum visibility and redundant flotation to support diving safety and peace of mind. Marker buoys are essential safety equipment in the event of separation from the dive team or surface vessel.

Key Features of Halcyon Diver Alert Markers

    * Easily inflated at depth
    * Diver Alert Markers use an integrated pressure-relief valve, allowing them to be deployed from depth
    * Oral inflate marker does not use a pressure-relief valve; it is suitable for surface deployment
    * When deflated, all markers fit in a Halcyon thigh pocket or backplate Storage Pak
    * Big and Super Big Alert Markers are marked with Coast Guard approved SOLAS reflective tape
    * Semi-closed Alert Markers have a baffled bottom for filling with a regulator’s second stage
    * Halcyon Diver Alert Markers (except semi-closed model) feature our No-Lock® (one-way valve) construction for oral inflate or LP hose connection

Halcyon offers several Diver Alert Markers in your choice of yellow or orange. These combinations support divers that wish to carry one color to mark position and one to mark emergencies.

Lift Bags

Lift devices are essential for a range of diving activities from salvage and signaling to redundant lift and emergency flotation. Whether used as diving tools or life support devices, you can always rely on the quality of Halcyon lift bags.

Semi-Closed 60

Halcyon’s Semi-Closed 60-lb. lift bag was designed to be filled by the diver’s second stage regulator, allowing for easy inflation when convenient access to a low-pressure inflation hose is not an option.

Key Features of the Semi-Closed 60

    * Semi-closed circuit design allows the use of a second stage for inflation
    * Over-pressure valve (OPV) allows for precise adjustment during lift operations
    * Baffled inflation chamber is easy to use and prevents accidental dumping in rough conditions
    * Safety-Orange color is easy to spot by surface or air traffic
    * Available in 60-lb (27-kg) lift capacity

Closed-Circuit 80 and 185

Halcyon Closed-Circuit lift bags provide the most reliable source of redundant buoyancy at depth or on the surface; these bags eliminate the chance that gas will escape from your lift bag during ascent or while on the surface.

    * Patented No-Lock® connector for LP hose or oral inflation
    * Over-pressure valve (OPV) allows for precise adjustment during lift operations
    * Safety-Orange color is easy to spot by surface or air traffic
    * Available in 80-lb (36-kg) and 185-lb (84-kg) lift capacities
