Release
Release of X-dream Fly rescue equipment for external containers
(harnesses with integrated reserve container)
Current status 10|09|2016
1. Content
This release is valid for all X-dream Fly rescue equipment including X-ONE-series, X-CURVE-series, X-TRIANGLE-
series and X-TWO-series in conjunction with non-original inner containers.
2. Risk
The compatibility of a harness with integrated | solid inner container to an external emergency equipment must
be guaranteed by the manufacturer of the harness and is tested by internal tests with different bulky containers.
The opening processes of the rescue device are dependent on the type and size of the inner container. There is the
possibility that the rescue equipment have a slowed-down opening or not even open in use of a smaller inner con-
tainer or inner container of other design. The original container of X-dream Fly have a separate line compartment
for the S-loop line packages for a defined opening sequence. In a container without a separated line compartment
the throwing power slows down by the early release of the entire rescue system. The X-dream Fly containers
provide a maximum of throwing power and quality of defined opening. This ensures a faster opening. In addition,
Dyneema lines are installed in most modern rescue equipment. These lines are coated with a polyurethane resin.
In our rescue manu-facturing (at X-dream Fly) we take care that different materials are handled separately. It is
possible that mini-mal parts of this coating are solved and get transferred on the fabric if the lines and the fabric
are packed together. This can lead to bonding and thus a delayed opening. Similarly, a defined packing method is
recommended which is not useful or possible in each inner container from other brands. Changes that differ from
the original packing method or the packaging size can increase the opening time and reduce the opening quality.
3. Implementation and installation
The implementation and installation of a X-dream Fly rescue unit in the inner container of a third-party may be
made only by trained personal by X-dream Fly. During the conversion and installation of the rescue the manual of
the rescue as also of the harness - or inside container manufacturer - has to exist and the corresponding installa-
tion and pack instructions need to be followed. The conversion in the non original inner container is to note in the
packing ID and signed by the pack manager.
