Water Rescue - Body Recovery
A sinking dummy to aid diver body recovery techniques
Water Rescue - Body Recovery a pre-established protocol is essential for victim retrieval - the body recovery manikin was predominately designed to aid Police dive teams train to recover bodies from any inland waters or under ice.
The manikin is a variant of the popular Water Rescue manikin - but instead of floating, it sinks. By balancing the buoyancy against the ballast the manikin weighs 50kg on land but only 10kg under water.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Anatomically correct weight distribution allows for realistic body 'bagging' as part of training exercises.
- This manikin will easily withstand a fall of 5 - 6 metres into water with no damage - they are tough!
- Constructed using a H/D reinforced Nylon mesh for the carcass and non-absorbent closed cell foam for buoyancy - mesh allows water to flood into the body to allow it to sink and out as it is being recovered.
- Mesh allows for ventilation when the manikin hung up to dry - a polypropylene loop to the back of the carcass allows the manikin to be lowered into position or hung up to dry.
- The addition of a realistic face and a wig enable easier/quicker identification of the body in poor visability when the search is by touch only.
- Polyethylene strips running from the shoulders to the knees allow flexibility but prevent the manikin from bending in half when using stretchers or recovery devices.
- Replaceable coveralls and boots are easily replaceable and greatly extend the life of the manikin
Options available:
Size | Weight | Height |
Adult | 10 kg | 180 cm |
Adult | 30 kg | 180 cm |
Adult | 50 kg | 180 cm |
