SECUMAR on Tour

Electronic alarm and direction finding equipment is a major step forward for lifejackets, offering an extra positive safety feature. However, many factors need to be observed in order that the complete system functions properly and reliably: for example, the transmitter needs to be automatically activated via the inflation of the lifejacket in one seamless operation.

The antenna must not be able to damage the lifejacket but at the same time be stiff enough to reliably raise itself into position; the transmitter must not have sharp corners and also be capable of stowing properly within the lifejacket cover. Importantly, the wrong transmitter or incorrect installation can in the worst case, damage the lifejacket as well as its operation or affect the operation of the PLB as well. It may also negate the DIN EN ISO classification of the lifejacket if fitted by an unqualified supplier as it no longer conforms to the original test parameters.

SECUMAR has rigorously tested several different MOB solutions to find the best compatible systems appropriate with its stringent requirements for safety and quality.

Yes! Each passenger may carry two lifejackets each with a maximum of two (2) CO₂ cartridges per lifejacket and no more than two spare cartridges in their luggage. Generally, there is no size limit for CO₂ cartridges in lifejackets. These rules are developed by the “Dangerous Goods Panel” of the ICAO, a sub-organization of the UN, and incorporated into the ICAO T.I. released regulations so they are valid worldwide. They are also included in the dangerous goods regulations (DGR) of the IATA. Unfortunately, some airlines incorporate size limits for CO₂ cartridges that may complicate travling with lifejackets.
