Inspection service automatic life jacket

The life of the crew can depend on the safe functioning of the life jacket.

For this reason, the Fachverband Seenot-Rettungsmittel FSR has clearly regulated the quality and service standards for life jackets:

The service life of an inflatable life jacket is generally limited to ten years, provided it is serviced every two years by a specialist service centre.

Thereafter, the service life of properly serviced lifejackets can be extended to a maximum of 14 years if they are serviced annually. We offer this service (Article-No. 3273-100) exclusively for automatic life jackets from the manufacturers SECUMAR and KADEMATIC.

Older lifejackets are no longer serviced!

We also cannot service life jackets that do not have a production date marked on them!

The date of the next inspection can be found on the service gadge (month and year).

We are an authorised specialist dealer and pass on the life jackets for certified servicing.

The scope of maintenance includes:

• 16-hour leak test of the inflated buoyancy chamber
• functional check of the automatic system
• function test of the manual release
• function test of the mouth valve
• Renewal of the release tablet and seals
• Check the seams and fittings
• Check the CO2 cartridge

If necessary, repairs and replacement of service parts are carried out at extra cost.

Processing time approx. 14 days.

You can bring your lifejacket to our shop or send it to us as a pre-paid consignment. If you order the maintenance here in the online shop, a printout of the order confirmation must be enclosed with the lifejacket. You will receive this by e-mail. Please also check your spam folder if necessary. Thank you very much!

We are also happy to advise you by telephone.
