Inflatable protector that weighs only 240 g
Lightness and compression:
the key points
Apair weighs only 240 g, compared to 320 g for the foam protector. Its design allows for total compression, optimising storage space to the maximum. Once the protector is deflated, the harness takes up minimal space. In addition, the Infbag (included) allows the Arrow P to be stowed inside, making it easy to store and transport the harness.
Infbag: How do you inflate the Apair?
ETo inflate the Apair protector, the method recommended by our engineers is to use the Infbag inflatable cover. To do this, start by filling the Infbag with air, close it and connect it to the protector tube. Make sure that the air inlet/outlet valve is open. As the Infbag is compressed, the protector will fill. A single inflation with the Infbag is sufficient. Press the valve firmly until it is completely closed to keep the air inside.
In this video tutorial you can see the procedure step by step.
If you prefer, you can also inflate it with an electric pump or blow it up manually, using the same air tube inlet.
Adjusting the quantity of air in flight
using the air inlet/outlet valve
The air inlet/outlet valve on the Apair tube is accessible in flight and therefore allows the pressure to be adjusted if necessary. Open or close the valve to retain or release the air. This functionality makes it possible to adapt the protector to pressure changes due to altitude, ensuring a safer and more comfortable flight.
Inflation: apply medium pressure
When inflating the Apair protector, it is crucial to use moderate pressure. To achieve this, it is recommended that the Apair is always inflated using the Infbag with your hands, never with your feet or body weight. The moment you feel a slight resistance, this is a sign that the Apair is already full. This is the time to stop, thus ensuring a medium and controlled pressure.
Too much air will make the protector hard and deform the shape of the harness, raising the pilot to an uncomfortable position. Conversely, under-inflation can compromise the effectiveness and safety of the protector.
A medium pressure ensures a similar flying experience with both the Apair and the foam protector, as both have the same shape.
