(from 4 l to 6.9 l)

der(s) (for one cylinder from 4 l to 9 l, for two cylinders from 4 l to 6.9 l)
Bumper (B)
The bumper is made out of hard-wearing rubber and mounted on the bottom of
the back plate. It prevents the apparatus from being damaged in the event that it
is put down heavily.
Bumper with valve-protection (V)
The bumper is made out of hard-wearing rubber and mounted on the bottom of
the back plate. The valve protection prevents the valve from being damaged in
the event that it is put down heavily.
Hip belt plate (SW)
The swivelling hip belt plate is mounted on the bottom of the back plate and is
used to support the hip belt.
The hip belt can be swivelled and thus follows all movements made by the
equipment user. The swivel range is limited and the cushioned reset movement
increases the feeling of safety.
For models MaX and eXX the swivelling hip belt plate is standard equipment and
for the pro model it is available as an option.
Cylinder retainer (R)
The elastic cylinder retainer serves to increase friction between cylinder and back
plate.
Rescue grip and retainer (H)
The rescue grip is used for drawing out persons and can be used for easy
transport of the apparatus.
Separator (D)
Metal bracket to divide two cylinders to facilitate mounting of two cylinders and
give guidance to cylinder strap.
Transponder
The back plate is equipped with a 125 kHz transponder (RFID chip) next to the
label for easy identification.
