The new and updated version of the original LPSV design by Lifesaving Systems.  It is a compact, lightweight, and comfortable to wear inflatable life preserver and survival vest combination intended for boat crew and boarding team members.  

The vest provides superior performance and comfort when compared to inherently buoyant Type III PFDs.  Especially when worn together with a ballistic protective vest and survival equipment.  This makes the vest ideal for crew members performing a wide range of tasks including search & rescue response, law enforcement and environmental protection both near and off shore. 

The inflation mechanism is the manual/automatic Secumatic™ inflator (#470), providing reliable automatic inflation when submerged in water.  Manual inflation by pulling the beaded lanyard or by oral tube.  The flotation cell is encased entirely in a heavy-weight, puncture/abrasion resistant nylon case.  When inflated the vest produces a positive righting moment (face-up) with approximately 35 lbs of buoyancy.  Due to the encased design, the cell is simply repacked by deflating, folding under, and then snapping in place.

Equipped with two pockets (5" x 4.5" x 1.75") for survival equipment or other small items.  Pockets are positioned to reduce interference and provide optimal weight distribution.  Front zipper closure with lower 1-1/2" Delrin^® buckle on waist strap for added safety.  Waist adjustment is easily accomplished with two quick release Delrin^® adjustors.  Includes CO₂ cylinder and necessary arming components.
