The versatile SeaGuard is a lightweight life jacket with a round neck design. This popular life jacket is easy to fit and simple to rearm with a low profile. Available in 3 colours and a wipe clean model for work boats.

The comfortable round neck design and its lightweight combine to make this lifejacket one of our most favoured models.

SeaGo life jackets are manufactured to ISO 12402-3 (150 newtons) or ISO 12402-2 (275 newtons). However, SeaGo has designed these life jackets to give an increased optimum performance and therefore the buoyancy stated on the model name will always be higher than the minimum buoyancy required to comply. The lifejackets are rated 165 and 300 newtons respectively.

The abrasion resistant cover or wipe clean cover, together with newly designed buckle, single crutch strap and lightweight d-ring makes the Seaguard an all round life jacket.

With regular maintenance and servicing at the correct intervals, it will give years of peace of mind. You should make sure you have purchased the correct specification that best suits your requirement in particular weight, chest size and buoyancy.

All the above range of Seago life jackets are suitable for offshore use.

Variants

  • 275n (300n rated)
  • 150n (165n rated)

Directions for use

  1. Check the lifejacket meets your requirements in terms of automatic or manual inflation, harness or non harness
  2. Check the inflation system is fully functional (see ‘Inflation system’ section)
  3. Check the gas cylinder has not been pierced and is screwed in tightly (if you have a Pro sensor model you will be able to check this through the viewing window).
  4. Check for any damage before every use

Before use, practice donning and using this lifejacket in water to ascertain performance refer to ‘How to test your lifejacket’ section. This is not a lifejacket until fully inflated. Full performance may not be achieved using certain types of clothing or in other circumstances. Your lifejacket is fitted with a ‘cylinder safe’ to prevent the cylinder coming loose, however, you should check before every use that the cylinder is tightly screwed into the inflator system (if you have a Pro sensor model you will be able to check this through the viewing window).

IMPORTANT:

Check before every use that the cylinder is tightly screwed in. A loose cylinder will not inflate your lifejacket. This lifejacket has CO2 gas inflation, it does not have any inherent buoyancy unless inflated by the CO2 gas cylinder or orally inflated by the users. This lifejacket offers a minimum of 150 newtons buoyancy when fully inflated. Suitable for user of 40kg upwards. The recommended temperature range on use is 5° C to 40° C. Do not apply nappies which provide buoyancy when using the lifejacket.

Note: A whistle is attached to the lifejacket, it should be used to attract attention if you fall into the water to help locate you.

THE GAS CYLINDER IS DANGEROUS GOODS AND MUST BE KEPT AWAY FROM CHILDREN AND NOT MISUSED.

It is very important to maintain all safety equipment, your lifejacket is a vital piece of safety equipment, to prolong the life of your lifejacket follow these steps:

  • Check the expiry date of cartridge, REPLACE any that have expired.
  • Check status indicators are green.
  • Check the cylinder is unpierced and fully charged. Screw in tightly after checking or replacing
  • Check the manual pull toggle is visible outside the lifejacket.
  • After use (inflated) rinse your lifejacket following steps from ‘CLEANING & STORING’Fully inspect your lifejacket before use.
  • Check for wear marks, cuts and tears.
  • Periodically check your lifejacket for leaks by orally inflating the lifejacket until firm. Leave for a period of 12 hours. Do not inflate with an air line. Leave the lifejacket in an environment with a stable temperature while testing.

If the lifejacket is leaking, the lifejacket must be replaced. Do not attempt any repairs.

This lifejacket should be serviced annually by a Seago approved service station (contact Star International)

Cleaning & storage

Lifejackets should always be stored in a dry ventilated environment. When storing automatic lifejackets, the activator capsule should be removed whilst the lifejacket is
wet or damp to avoid accidental inflation. When drying the lifejacket, we recommend it be hung up until completely dry before storage.

To clean your lifejacket only use fresh water, if you have an automatic model remove the activator capsule first.

Do not put the lifejacket in the washing machine and do not tumble dry or spin dry.

Allow your lifejacket to naturally air dry, ensure the lifejacket is dried thoroughly before rearming or storing.

IMPORTANT: Never attempt repairs on your lifejacket. Contact Star International if you have any concerns.
