Personal flotation device - Part 6 : Special application lifejackets and buoyancy aids – Safety requirements and additional test methods.
A window allows the user to check that everything is operational before putting it on.
Designed with a plastic buckle for lightness and crotch strap to avoid losing the lifejacket when falling into the water.
Ergonomic, very short, therefore not too constricting, with a wide neckline that favours head movement and distributes the weight of the waistcoat over the shoulders rather than the neck.
Manual release + oral inflation.
On-board winding handle, 2-tone whistle, and facilities for fitting a beacon or marker light.
Changing the gas cartridge and cylinder is very simple, quick and economical.
The lifejacket should not be folded without being dried and rearmed.
Check that all accessories are in order and in place.
