Scuba Buoyancy Compensators

A buoyancy compensator is a piece of Scuba Equipment worn by divers to provide the ability to adjust and control the overall buoyancy of the Scuba Diver allowing the diver to achieve neutral buoyancy, remaining at a constant depth, or to descend or ascend in a controlled way.

When underwater, a diver often needs to be neutrally buoyant so that the diver neither sinks nor rises but remains at constant depth, with minimal effort. A state of neutral buoyancy exists when the weight of water that the diver displaces equals the total weight of the diver. The diver uses the BC to maintain this neutral buoyancy by adjusting the BC's volume and therefore its buoyancy, in response to various effects, which alter the diver’s overall volume or weight.
