Tank podPEEK, Ø56 × 180 mm tip to tip. Screws into the first-stage HP port and reads cylinder pressure, depth and temperature.

38 kHz linkA magnetic field, not radio. It fills the water around the pod and reaches the receiver about 0.75 m away, every 5 seconds.

Receiver podPEEK, Ø44 × 100 mm. Clamps to the back of the housing, measures its own depth, and passes everything to the phone by Bluetooth through the wall.

Phone in its housingAny touchscreen housing of the DiveVolk SeaTouch kind, about 205 × 110 × 36 mm. The phone is the display, the camera and, at the surface, the GPS and SOS.

MANTA Core

Receiver pod only. Depth, temperature, dive time, logging, camera stamping, surface GPS.

MANTA Air

Core plus the tank pod. Adds live cylinder pressure and gas remaining.

Depth+ (optional)

A second depth pod on the BCD, in the same body as the receiver. Shown dashed in the model.

Illustration, not a manufacturing drawing. Pod dimensions follow sheets SDM100-001 to SDM100R-001; the housing is a generic stand-in and the diver, cylinder and first stage are simplified.
