2. 15 REASONS WHY EAM’S MODEL XF-35 IS THE SUPERIOR CHOICE
1. Model XF-35, P/N P01074-101 in lightweight, standard polybag
weighs 1.13 lbs.
Model XF-35, P/N P01074-201 in Extended Shelf Life (ESL) pouch
weighs 1.23 lbs.
10. Package not evacuated.
11. Packaging does not crease, or wrinkle after long
period of storage, making it easier to remove vest for
emergency donning.
2. Basic weight of Model XF-35 without packaging is 1.10 lbs.
12. XF-35 reads “FOR WEARERS WEIGHING 35 LBS.
(15.9 KG) AND ABOVE.” Both British (pounds) and metric units
(kilograms) given. Statement is easy for any
passenger to understand.
3. Cells sewn together at five (5) locations along neck openings.
Vests cannot be donned incorrectly.
4. Buckle is white and webbing is black. White buckle highly
contrasts both the yellow vest and the waist
strap as well as the aircraft cabin interior floors and
seating. Male end of buckle is easy to find and fasten.
13. Customer logo clearly
visible through standard
polybag and wide vinyl bag
pack configuration.
5. Cell markings are indelibly silkscreened in black ink.
Markings cannot rub off, even if washed with detergent.
14. Standard pack
measures 7.0 x 7.0 x 2.0
inches. This measurement
results in a volume of 98.0
cubic inches.
6. Large high visibility, white tear strip printed with
word “Tear” in English, French, Spanish, and German
in red letters with red arrows sewn to both poly and
vinyl bags used for packaging.
15. Inflator is actuated when
lanyard is pulled down/and
or towards the sides of the
vest away from the center.
This is a more natural
direction. It also allows
the vest to be more easily
activated by another person
in the case where the wearer
is a child or is incapacitated.
7. Donning instructions and wearer’s weight
requirement written in large pictograms and text.
Very easy to see in the lowest light conditions.
8. Step 1 of the donning instructions is printed right
side up at eye level so the passenger can read
it as he puts on the vest.
9. Standard polybag is the same 0.004 inches thick.
Available wide vinyl bag and narrow vinyl bag are 0.012
inches thick and offer greater protection.
