The low profile MD1250 provides flotation capability with
minimum bulk or interference using separate, independently
operated left and right side pouches. With the option to wear
on a standard or padded LE belt or attach directly to Pouch
Attachment Ladder System (PALS) webbing on Modular
Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment (MOLLE) vests, the
MD1250 is a versatile solution for users who require emergency
flotation with minimal bulk or interference with gear.
Using Hydrostatic Inflator Technology, each pouch will
automatically inflate when submerged in 4 or more inches of
water but not inadvertently due to rain, spray or humidity. When
fitted with the included manual conversion cap, the automatic
hydrostatic function can is disabled only allowing manual
activation by pulling the beaded handle.
The MD1250 is available in a black or coyote tan outershell with
a yellow bladder and SOLAS-grade retro-reflective tape. The
MD1250 SO is available in black and coyote tan outershell with
an olive drab bladder and no retro-reflective tape.
QUICK INTEGRATION & EASY REPACKING
A unique dual strap system allows the MD1250 to be quickly
attached to standard or padded Law Enforcement belts up to
3” wide or integrated with a MOLLE style vest, body armor
and most other tactical vests. SecureZIP™ closure withstands
rigorous activity and is easy to repack.
RELIABLE INFLATION
The Hydrostatic Inflation System will not inflate prematurely due
to rain, humidity or wind-driven sea spray. The inflatable cell
achieves full inflation within seconds of immersion, or with a
simple pull of the beaded handle. An oral inflation tube provides
backup inflation, if necessary and can also be used to reduce
buoyancy if needed.
INCLUDED MANUAL CONVERSION CAP
The included manual conversion cap can be installed over the
inflator’s water inlet port to prevent automatic operation. This
allows the wearer to select the inflation capability (manual or
automatic) prior to the mission.
LOW MAINTENANCE
No inflator maintenance is required for five years, unless
inflated.
