For first responders doing water rescue operations
For first responders engaged in water rescue operations, the Restube Rescue Case 1 with Automatic Inflatable Floating Buoy offers unparalleled support and efficiency. This essential rescue tool includes four Restube Automatic devices, each designed to automatically inflate into a buoy upon contact with water. This feature allows first responders to throw the device from a safe distance, providing immediate buoyancy and crucial time-saving assistance to individuals in distress.
The Restube Automatic is equipped with interchangeable components, allowing for up to six releases, ensuring readiness for multiple rescue scenarios. For professional use, it is imperative to conduct an annual inspection and post-use check, which can be performed by a technically skilled member of the organization following the provided instructions. No special tools are required for this maintenance.
The Restube Automatic is activated by water, inflating within seconds upon immersion. It is ideal for lifeguards and search and rescue teams, as it can be thrown to individuals in distress. Additionally, it can be attached to drones for aerial deployment, offering a unique advantage in locating and assisting individuals in water. The device can also be manually triggered, providing versatility in emergency situations.
For drone applications, the Restube Automatic can be carried by drones with a payload capacity of over 900g. This feature not only aids in rescue operations but also serves as a precautionary measure to keep drones afloat if they crash into water. Users must adhere to regulations regarding drone flight and object dropping.
To maintain the Restube Automatic, the Restube Automatic Rearming Kit is recommended. This kit includes a regular Restube CO2 cartridge, a trigger unit for water activation, and a secure clip. Note that a belt is not included, as it is generally unnecessary.
The Restube Automatic inflates upon water contact, thanks to its integrated water sensor and manual trigger option. For repacking, an original CO2 cartridge and water activator are required. Despite its robust functionality, the device is lightweight enough to be thrown over distances, making it a versatile tool for various rescue scenarios.
While the Restube Automatic provides significant buoyancy (75N) for an adult and can be inflated by mouth, it is important to note that it is not a Coast Guard-approved life vest. It does not provide head or body support and is not suitable for unconscious individuals. Instead, it serves as a flotation swim buoy, offering a reliable resting point and ease of swimming for those in need.
