21. MASTER JACKET(certified as CBRD-EN 12628, that includes also the EN 1809 norms, that means it canbe used as buoyancy compensator underwater as well as Life Jacket on the boat)The original design of this legendary model was developed in 1978: it was the first divingJacket ever produced and its design and technology is so successful that as of today, it ispractically unchanged from the original.The Master Jacket is quite different from all other models on the market due to its “threedimensional balance” buoyancy control, regardless of the sequence of movements orin what position the movement begins underwater, the internal air bubble cannot causerotational movements,which would destabilize the diver (fig. A).This outcome is owed to the peculiar internal bag design, that uses three interconnecting circlesor passageways, permitting the air bubble an unobstructed circulation (fig. A1). If the ring isinterrupted (fig. B), a rotation of the ring itself, which would bring one of the ends (E or E1) to thehighest point (where the bubble (O) resides), would cause the rotation to stop. If the ring is notinterrupted, however, the rotation can continue until it reaches the most stable configuration. Thisguarantees not only an unparalleled level of comfort during diving, but also a “face-up” positionof the diver on the surface, even in case of unconsciousness, providing thus an inherent levelof safety. For this main reason, the Master Jacket has been tested and certified as the uniqueworldwide CBRD (Combined Buoyancy Rescue Device): meaning that the Jacket can be usedas a buoyancy compensator underwater as well as a Life Jacket on the boat!Other skilful technical solutions and quality materials support the basic safety concept:the Master Jacket consists of two bags: an internal bag that holds the air bubble, madeof polyurethane/polyether, radio frequency welded, and an external bag made of toughpolyester fabric, sewn with thick polyester thread, that guarantees mechanical and abrasionresistance.English21
The webbing system is conceived for themaximum safety too: infact there are adjustableshoulder belts with 50 mm. (2”) metal buckles,easy to adjust even with thick gloves, to holdtight the diver, even jumping into the waterfrom many meters ! The chest straps areelastic to prevent squeezing of the lungs, ifthe bag is over inflated. Fotoluminescentpatches complete the safety features.In the right epaulette there is an elastic loop(fig. L), to hold a blinking light during the nightdive (such as SCUBAPRO Safety Light orStrobe Light).Back pack, back plate, soft paddingcummerbund and Supercinch Q.A. aredescribed in the Manual.All valves, inflator and tank band assembly,are described in the manual.In addition, the Master Jacket has thepossibility to apply a Pony Bottle System and/or CO 2detonator ( both of them are optional)that fit on special pockets (fig. PB / CO 2 ) sothat they do not hang out.Heavy duty AISI 316 stainless steel “D” ringsallow to hook up heavy accessories.Performances (printed in the patches stitchedbesides the back pack) are listed below:Performance is listed below and printed in the interior patch stitched on the BC.Sizes Max Lifting Buoyancy (N*) Max Lifting Buoyancy (lb) Max size of bottle (I)S 200 44.9M 220 49.5L 230 51.7XL 250 56.2XXL 250 56.210+10 10 10*N=Newton22
