Deine Fragen / Unsere Antworte

What do the buoyancy classes 100, 150, and 275 Newton mean for life jackets?
The Newton number indicates the minimum buoyancy. 100 N is suitable for calm inland waters, 150 N for coastal areas, and 275 N for the high seas and severe weather conditions where an exhausted person needs to be kept on their back.
How often do I need to service an inflatable life jacket?
At least once per season: Check the gas cartridge for expiry date and integrity, test the release mechanism, and check the bladder for leaks. The exact intervals are specified by the respective manufacturer.
Which life jacket is suitable for children?
Solid life jackets are recommended for children, as they provide immediate buoyancy without manual activation. The size indication according to body weight is crucial – children's models usually cover specific weight ranges, for example, 15–30 kg or 30–50 kg.
Can I retrofit a life jacket with a safety line and MOB whistle?
Yes, many inflatable vests have attachment points for a sprayhood, rescue light, and whistle. Make sure the accessories are compatible with your vest model – not every accessory fits every vest.
