Gates EXR1 Housing

SKU: GatesEX1R
HD Imaging for the Discerning Professional-and more

On the heels of the workhorse EX1, The Gates EX1R is revised and improved for the underwater professional. New to the EX1R is support for larger batteries and external recording units (e.g. nonFlash). Adjustable trim weights afford perfect balance and trim. Gates Precision ports, HD-SDI surface feed and EM43 high resolution monitor are selectable features that contribute to the sharpest subsea HD images. The EX1R is classic Gates heritage: durable ‘bulletproof’ machined aluminum, 100% reliable mechanical controls and 2 year renewable warranty.
