Our equipment

SUB-BSI has a selection of diving equipment that is loaned out free of charge to club members. It is assumed that the borrower has:

  • a valid diving certificate,

  • paid the club membership fee,

  • received training in the use and maintenance of the equipment,

  • been introduced to the lending procedures

The required training is provided by the garage guard by attending club dives.

In the “Garage”, SUB-BSI has a “Bauer” compressor. It has a capacity of 550 litres/min and a working pressure of 300 bar. It is connected to a bottle bank of 10×50 litres, 200 bar.

After receiving training in the use of the compressor and bottle bank, members may fill air themselves free of charge. It is emphasized that compressor maintenance and repairs are expensive. No one is allowed to use the compressors without first having received the necessary training. Training will be given to interested members before or after club trips. The garage guard is responsible for the training. If you want air without having received training, the board can be contacted.

The SUBUS, which is used on dive trips and club dives. It can be rented by members, upon application to the board, provided it does not conflict with club activities. Garage guards may also organize trips outside of the scheduled plan and will then have priority use of the car. Such trips must be announced on Subnett.

Safety Equipment

  • Dive flags (several),

  • Oxygen kits (2 pcs),

  • Lines (surface lines, buoys, rescue lines),

VHF radios are not loaned out for private trips. Organized dive trips must always have available: a dive flag, an oxygen kit, the VHF radios, a rescue line, and a first aid kit. Safety equipment (excluding the VHF radios) may otherwise be borrowed by members for day trips.

Talcum Powder

In the “Garage” we have a barrel of talcum powder. Members may take from this for use on both club and private dry suits.
