The Tri-bag system is the first integrated survival solution for helicopters.
In addition to providing the most stable float platform in the industry, the kits may provide two externally mounted six man twin tube full canopy liferafts at a weight of only 169 pounds. This system frees up valuable passenger space because liferafts do not have to be stowed in the cabin where they are difficult to reach and sometimes cost operators access to a seat.
The system is also designed with aircraft recovery in mind and has the ability to be towed at approximately 10 knots of speed. The system is designed to replace the OEM single bags and cylinders while reusing the existing flotation landing gear. The system was designed with the operator in mind and takes approximately 30 man hours to install. An optional automatic electrical inflation system is now available. Two water activated switches are installed on the underside of the fuselage to provide an automatic back-up to the pilot operated mechanical system.
