9. DEVICE COMPONENTS
9.1 AIRBAGS
Each of the two airbags has a volume of 75 litres when
inflated. They are inflated simultaneously but have sep-
arate closure valves. If one of the airbags is damaged,
the other one will remain inflated for a sufficient length
of time. The special web structure gives the airbags a
particularly large projected effective surface to help you
stay on the surface.
The pull-out force to detach the airbag from the straps
and belts is at least 300 kg (3000 N).
9.2 VENTURI NOZZLES
The Venturi nozzles are housed in a mesh bag in the
base unit to prevent snow getting into them and are
connected to the airbags.

P.RIDE INFLATOR
The cylinder is attached permanently to the activation
module; together, they form the inflator. Please make
sure that the provided protective cap is placed on the
inflator when the inflator is not inserted in the system.
In general, the inflator should always be inserted
into the control module. There is an electric ignition
in the activation module, similar to that used in the
automotive sector and subject to strict requirements.
This ignition generates pressure within the inflator. The
cylinder is then punctured with a needle. The gas in
the cylinder mixes with the intake air when the cylinder
is punctured and inflates the airbags.
The cylinders contain only non-hazardous, non-flamma-
ble gases found in the atmosphere, internal pressure
300 bar. Any manipulation of the inflator could cause
an explosion. Serious risk of injury and death, even for
bystanders! The cylinder is designed for temperatures
of between -40°C to +50°C. Only ABS
®
can refill an
empty inflator. Exchanges for a full inflator can only
be made with an ABS
®
dealer. Avoid impacts such as
dropping the inflator. The carbon cylinders comply with
EC directives ISO 11119-3, ISO 10297 and Directive
2010/35/EU.
9.4 ACTIVATION HANDLE
In the ON position, pulling the activation handle gen-
erates an electrical impulse that triggers ignition in the
inflator. The handle remains fixed to the backpack and
is deactivated by moving it into the OFF position. The
handle should be kept in the shoulder strap to avoid
accidental activation. The activation handle is also
used as the operating module for partner activation.
9.5 CONTROL MODULE / ACCU
Power Adapter:
Socket USB A
Output: 5V 1A
The control module contains a rechargeable polymer
lithium ion battery that is almost entirely frost-re-
sistant up to temperatures of -40°C. It only suffers
minimal loss of power even on very cold days. When
fully charged, the battery‘s maximum operating time
is 240 hours in individual mode – corresponding to 30
