The CPR is the commercial version of the raft designed for and adopted by the U.S. Coast Guard for their Helicopter Operations. This professional grade life raft is now available for general aviation. Catering to both the fixed and rotary wing aircraft, the CPR is TSO-C70a Type II approved.

Multiple boarding stations for rapid ingress

Boarding a life raft in an emergency scenario is no small feat. The CPR makes it as easy as possible with four boarding stations allowing efficient transfer of personnel from the aircraft. Each boarding station is equipped as standard with wide, stiffened rung ladders that make it easy to climb aboard even in the event entry is directly from the water. Entry is not restricted when the canopy is furled or the arch tubes are up even when wearing an inflated life jacket.

5-Year Service Interval

Unlike many other rafts on the market, the CPR comes standard with a 5 year service interval. This extended service interval helps to reduce the overall cost of life raft ownership. SWITLIK accomplished this in a responsible manner through the combined use of our patented and military proven hermetically sealed packaging system and compressed air inflation. This better protects the raft’s materials and provides excellent cold weather inflation performance versus traditional CO2 inflation systems.

Be confident your raft is ready

With SWITLIK’s air charge inflation system, there is now a visible “go/no go” pressure gauge that lets you know your raft is ready to deploy. Time sensitive survival equipment is packed in an external pocket allowing for updating without the cost of servicing the actual life raft.
