Zodiac 6 person ISO 9650 liferaft

Open Sea Liferaft features :

• An internal ladder coupled with a boarding platform allow you to slide on board more easliy.
• A self-erecting canopy fitted with high-density retro reflective tape for easy detection at night.
• Internal and external high intensity lithium powered lighting systems that illuminate on contact with water.
• High visibility colours.
• Heavy duty drogue and line.
• Rainwater collection complete with graduated storage bag.
• Observation and ventilation ports.
• Three independent buoyancy chambers (including arch).
• Large capacity lead-ballasted stabiliser pockets to maximise stability in extreme sea conditions.
• An aluminium lined composite cellular foam floor that retains and throws back natural body heat to insulate against the cold and provide protection against hypothermia.
• Ration bags containing regulatory safety equipment such as: food rations, water provisions, signalling equipment etc.

Nylon / Polyurethane fabric

All Zodiac leisure liferafts are now manufactured from this brand of fabric. With its triple layer of nylon and polyurethane this fabric insures great airtightness and durability along with lightness and visibility.

Unique buoyancy construction:

The buoyancy tubes are constructed of one continuous material to avoid seperation and stop ingress of water.
This is a common problem with the manufacturing process normally used of glueing one tube on top of another.
A continuous band of webbing bettween the chambers envelopes the complete circumference for secure attachment of drogue, painter and lifeline.

Cellular foam floor with aluminium coating

A particularly innovative sandwich design incorporates a cellular foam layer between a fabric base and aluminium film top layer. The layer of aluminium film reflects back natural body heat providing protection and insulation from the cold of the water. This system offers superior insulation, lighter weight and needs no inflation system to work compared to an old-fashioned inflatable floor which may be easily punctured.

Valise or canister?

Zodiac liferafts are available in either a valise or a canister. When possible,
a canister is recommended to offer the best protection against wear and tear
and the elements. A canister can be left on deck or mounted in the stern
of a sailing yacht. A liferaft in a valise should be protected from the elements
and care should be taken to keep it clear from sharp objects. It will need to be
stored in a location that permits it to be brought on deck quickly and easily.

Quality Assurance RAQ1

Safety equipment must be 100% reliable and fail-safe to ensure that ZODIAC liferafts are built following a strict quality control system. ZODIAC was the first nautical company to obtain RAQ-1 and ISO 9001 quality certification giving you assurance that every liferaft is rigorously checked at each stage of manufacture.
