Oceanic BC Weight Drop Systems are designed for divers who want the option to drop only a
predetermined portion of weights being carried in the event that emergency positive buoyancy is needed.
They also provide some divers the option to load all weights and eliminate the standard weight belt.
The QLR system (Fig. 3A) is configured with a Release Buckle. The QLR3 system (Fig. 3B) is configured
with a fixed Buckle.

WARNING: The maximum weight capacity for each Weight Release Pocket is 10
pounds. Pockets capable of holding up to 16 pounds are available for select models.
These amounts should not be exceeded. Amounts that you can actually load may be
less due to the type and shape of weights being used.
