Design Features of Dive Rite Air Cells

Dive Rite has revised their popular BC wing aircells, introducing the EXP Series Wings available in four different designs supporting various combinations of single or double cylinders. Dive Rite's EXP wings utilize a 360 degree, donut-style bladder with tough 1680 denier ballistic nylon shell. The donut-style design provides an even volume of inflation on top, sides and bottom, which improves buoyancy control and promotes a more efficient, horizontal trim. The EXP wings are available in black with gray side panels.

Each air cell incorporates an airtight inner bladder, surrounded by an outer shell constructed of heavy-duty ballistic nylon and an oral/power inflation assembly. The tough ballistic nylon outer bag protects the wing from tears and abrasion. The 15-mil urethane bladder is abrasion resistant, chemical resistant and resists the growth of microorganisms. Available as an option on the Rec EXP and Classic EXP wings, the dual upgrade incorporates two bladders to provide back-up inflation. The dual bladder wings offer the same versatility and lift capacity of the single bladder wings. The dual option is ideal for technical divers who dive wet and do not have a drysuit as alternate buoyancy or for any diver who wants to ensure their backup buoyancy has the same lift capacity as their primary.

> Travel EXP Wing (27 lbs Lift)

Travel EXP Wing With a new oval shape, the Travel EXP is a lightweight, small-profile wing that is great for travel and warm-water, single tank diving. At 27lbs/12kg of lift, the Travel EXP is perfect for AL80/LP80/HP100 cylinders and as a part of our modular BCD system, it can be matched with either a TransPac, Transplate or any metal backplate and webbing harness. The Travel comes standard with a pull-to-dump remote exhaust elbow, 16-inch corrogated hose, and 22-inch low pressure BC inflator hose.

> Voyager EXP Wing (40 lbs Lift)

Voyager EXP Wing

New for 2010, the Dive Rite Voyager EXP Wing has 40 pounds/20 kgs of lift and is ideal for diving larger single tanks with a deco or bailout bottle. The Voyager EXP Wing is a popular choice among divers looking for a single tank wing for use with larger 8-inch diameter cylinders such as the LP95/HP119. The shape also keeps lift at the neck to a minimum, with extra lift that the base, and is a good choice for use with rebreathers. Available in black with gray side panels. The Voyager comes standard with a pull-to-dump remote exhaust elbow, 16-inch corrogated hose, and 22-inch low pressure BC inflator hose.

> Rec EXP Wing (50 lbs Lift)

Rec EXP Wing A hybrid wing, the Rec EXP can be worn on single or double tanks making it one of our most popular wings. When diving single tanks, two clips on each side of the wing attach to D-rings on the backplate, keeping the wing close to the diver's body. This avoids the "taco" effect of the wing wrapping around the tank, away from the diver, which diminishes buoyancy control. At full lift capacity, the Rec EXP has 50 lbs/ 23kg of lift and can accommodate LP95/HP119 ft3/15 L singles or smaller doubles such as HP100's/AL80's. The Rec comes standard with a plain elbow, 16-inch corrogated hose and 22-inch low pressure BC inflator hose. The Rec EXP's unique bladder design allows a single bladder Rec EXP to be altered (at the factory) to become a dual bladder wing at a later date, or it can be initially purchased as a dual bladder wing. Approximate dimensions uninflated: 24-in H x 23-in W (60.9cm x 58.4cm)

> Classic EXP Wing (68 lbs Lift)

Classic EXP Wing The Classic EXP is an adjustable lift wing, sporting an optional Gusset Control System on the inside edges of the wing that can be used to further streamline the wing for wreck penetration or smaller size doubles. The GCS does not create a bungee wing because it does not restrict air flow; instead the GCS promotes added streamlining and buoyancy control, yet allows the wing to full inflate to its full capacity. At full capacity, the Classic EXP offers 68 lbs/31 kg of lift, accommodating two LP104/HP130 ft3/17L back mounted cylinders and two 80 ft3/11L stage bottles. Classic EXP Wings are popular among divers with larger doubles. The Classic EXP comes standard with a plain elbow, 12-inch corrogated hose and 22-inch low pressure BC inflator hose. The Classic EXP's unique bladder design allows a single bladder Classic EXP to be altered (at the factory) to become a dual bladder wing at a later date, or it can be initially purchased as a dual bladder wing. The Classic is designed for use with heavyweight double tanks and is not for use with single tanks. Approximate dimensions uninflated: 27-in H x 25-in W (68.5cm x 63.5cm)

Which Wing Do I Need?

The cylinder size, type and configuration, not lift capacity, is the best guide to selecting the correct wing. While many doubles wing designs can be adjusted for occasional use with singles, keep in mind they are not designed to be used primarily as singles wings and they are not optimal with singles. Realistically, there is no wing perfect for both singles and doubles, or even a wing perfect for all doubles. If the range of cylinder configurations you dive is broad, then the best choice for efficient and comfortable diving may be to own more than one wing.

Single tank air cells come standard with a 22-inch low-pressure hose, oral/power inflator, 16-inch corrugated hose, and a remote exhaust dump valve. A cable runs from the inflator inside the corrugated hose up to the remote exhaust dump valve. To exhaust gas from the air cell, you need only tug gently on the inflator. Remote Exhaust Valve Diagram Remote Exhaust and Elbow
Plain Elbow Double tank air cells come standard with a low-pressure hose, oral/power inflator, corrugated hose, and a plain non-exhaust elbow. Various length hoses are available to fine tune the location of the power inflator to the divers' preference.
Overpressure Relief and Pull-to-Dump Valve
Every wing also includes a combination overpressure relief and pull-to-dump valve.
