The SCU hookah diving systems have a compressor at the surface that delivers air to divers below through long hoses and a demand regulator similar-to-the-kind used in scuba. The divers are freed from wearing heavy, bulky tanks. It's an easy, hassle-free way to dive that's always available whenever you want to dive. When you use an Air Line Direct Drive System, there is no need to get tanks filled, and no running out of filled tanks, when you still want to do more diving. The low gear requirements make hookah diving an ideal way for beginners to learn to dive, or anyone who wants to wear less gear.
Traditional scuba gear is heavy and bulky. With the SCU hookah system for diving, you can explore underwater worlds with streamlined freedom of movement like when snorkeling. The surface supplied air in the hookah dive system allows for unlimited air and no tank fills. Equipment for the hookah dive system is lightweight, compact, and easy to use. Save space on the boat by using the SCU hookah dive system.
Because of the exceptional performance of the SCU80 series of compressors, it is extremely well qualified to support the third, and even, fourth diver at respectable recreational depths. It is shown as a separate entity to eliminate confusion in determining requirements for depth and number of participants. EXceL, eXceLlent, no matter how you spell it, the unequalled, un-copied leader of the pack! The SCU80 series are the bad boy that gives the competition nightmares. A large, single-head compressor that equals, or betters in delivered air, the other guy's double-head.
A very tough (but caring) single-head compressor, cut from a solid block of aluminum, and featuring a prominent, 6" (15.25cm) cooling fan. There is no restriction in its ability to disburse heat. The fan also has the effect of deflecting splash while it is pushing out heated air. Further, the large vent affords the possibility of washing off the bearing/piston assembly after the dive day, to rid critical working parts of the destructive effects of salt. There is absolutely no disassembly involved. Salt will enter the interior of any compressor as it cannot be hermetically sealed, as some circulation of hot air is needed. As with all SCU compressors it is marine-ized inside and out for long, l-o-n-g service life
