Description:
A quick visual check that an inflatable PFD is ready to go. NRS inflatable PFDs use this Green Arming Pin (NRS item 99208.01) to show that the CO2 inflation cylinder has not been used. When the cylinder is punctured, the pin breaks and drops away, so a missing green pin tells you the PFD needs to be rearmed. Keep spares with your team's rescue PFDs and life jackets for after training or a deployment.
Features
- Ready indicator: an intact green pin shows the CO2 cylinder is unused and ready to inflate the PFD.
- Breaks away on activation: when the cylinder is punctured, the pin breaks and falls away.
- Intentionally fragile: the pin is light so it never gets in the way of the inflation mechanism; store spares where they will not get crushed in transport.
- Pack of 4: enough spares to rearm several inflatable PFDs.
Specifications
- Use: indicator for inflatable PFD CO2 cartridges, showing the cartridge is unused
- Fits: NRS inflatable PFDs
- Quantity: 4 Arming Pins
