Survitec Halo Crew Life Jacket

Description:

With more than 60 years’ market-leading experience in lifejacket design, coupled with extensive industry insights, Survitec have been able to design a lifejacket that sets a new standard in helicopter transport safety.

The Halo crew lifejacket provides operators with the most advanced lifejacket solution available for helicopter transfer – offering an enhanced level of safety, comfort and in-water performance not currently available in the energy aviation sector.

The Halo is available with a fully integrated Emergency Breathing System (EBS). The bespoke Survitec EBS has been designed to be deployed in one swift movement and features a carbon composite cylinder, braided low pressure hose and second stage with integrated nose clip.

Weighing in at just 949g, the EBS is 43% lighter than previous Survitec models and 30% lighter than competing products. Plus, with a working pressure of 310 bar, the cylinder provides 80% more breathable air than the industry minimum standard.

Halo is the first aviation lifejacket to utilise Fusion 3D technology, allowing for a much more ergonomic jacket that adapts to the shape of the wearer for enhanced comfort. Particular attention has been paid to improving comfort around the neck and arms. This, combined with the lifejacket’s slimline profile and the reduction in EBS size, takes into consideration the restrictive space and movement within the helicopter – allowing for greater freedom of movement for the wearer during transit.
