The Co2 Cylinder Life Jacket is a personal water safety device equipped with an inflatable CO2 cylinder. If the user falls into the water or encounters distress, they pull the inflation cord, and the cylinder instantly releases high-pressure carbon dioxide, rapidly inflating the life jacket and providing buoyancy, ensuring the user’s safety in the water.
Co2 Cylinder Life Jacket Product Features
1. Fast and Automatic
The life jacket contains a standard 16g/24g/33g/60g CO2 cylinder that inflates in 2-3 seconds. Some models are equipped with an automatic sensor that automatically triggers the cylinder upon contact with water, ensuring buoyancy even if the user becomes unconscious.
2. Strong Buoyancy
Depending on the cylinder size, the inflated life jacket can generate buoyancy ranging from 90N to 275N, far exceeding the minimum 150N required by international standard ISO 12402-3 and sufficient to support an adult’s breathing passage at the surface.
3. Removable CO2 Cylinder
The life jacket features a removable cylinder design, allowing for replacement after use. The cylinder is made of steel or aluminum alloy, nickel-plated for corrosion resistance, and can withstand high pressures of 55-60 bar.
4. Comfortable and Lightweight Wear
The outer layer is made of nylon or polyester fabric, weighing only 500g-1kg, suitable for long-term wear without affecting water operations or sports.
5. International Safety Certifications
Most models are certified to international water safety standards such as CE, SOLAS, and ISO 12402, and are widely used in European, American, and Asian markets, meeting the purchasing requirements of B2B customers.
6. Visual Cylinder Compartment and Safety Indicator
Some models feature a transparent cylinder compartment or safety indicator window, allowing users to quickly confirm that the cylinder is correctly installed and in standby mode, enhancing reliability.
Application Scenarios for the Co2 Cylinder Life Jacket
1. Navigation and Commercial Shipping
Life jackets are essential for seagoing and coastal navigation. CO2 cylinder life jackets deploy quickly in emergencies, eliminating the complex donning and slow deployment issues of traditional life jackets and increasing the crew’s chances of survival.
2. Fisheries and Fishing Operations
Fishermen often work in complex sea conditions and face a high risk of falling overboard. Lightweight CO2 life jackets do not interfere with fishing operations and can be instantly inflated in the event of a fall, providing safety.
3. Yachting and Water Sports
Yacht enthusiasts, kayakers, and motorboat users often choose CO2 life jackets as essential equipment. They offer both safety and aesthetics without compromising freedom of movement.
4. Water Engineering and Port Operations
Workers in port loading and unloading, bridge construction, and other fields spend extended periods of time near water. Compared to bulky foam life jackets, CO2 life jackets are more flexible and suitable for high-intensity work.
5. Government and Rescue Agencies
Fire brigades, water rescue teams, and maritime law enforcement agencies often purchase CO2 life jackets in bulk for emergency response and to ensure the safety of rescuers in challenging environments.
6. Tourism and Resort Rentals
Resorts and water parks offer CO2 life jacket rental services to enhance the safety experience for visitors while complying with tourism safety regulations.
