Safety Information
Safety Instructions for Buoyancy Balloons
Safe Usage Guidelines
Proper Use
Use the buoyancy balloons solely for their intended purpose, which is to provide buoyancy for floating vessels.
Before use, ensure that the balloon is correctly installed and securely fastened in its position. Check that all valves and attachment elements are fully functional.
Never exceed the maximum buoyant capacity of the balloon. Always ensure that the balloon is suitable for the size of the vessel it will be used with.
Protection Against Damage
Avoid exposing the buoyancy balloons to sharp surfaces, cutting objects, or rough materials. Damages may lead to air leakage, which will affect the balloon's performance.
Store buoyancy balloons in a dry, cool place, away from heat sources, UV radiation, and sharp objects that may cause damage.
Regular Checks Before Use
Condition Check
Always thoroughly inspect the balloon's condition before use, paying special attention to seams, valves, and the material of the balloon. Ensure that there are no cracks, holes, or other damage that may affect its functionality.
Check that all valves are securely closed and that the inflation mechanism is functioning properly.
Ensure that the balloon shows no visible signs of wear, especially in the case of prolonged use.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning Buoyancy Balloons
After each use in water, particularly seawater, rinse the buoyancy balloon thoroughly with fresh water to remove salt, sand, or other contaminants that may accelerate material wear.
To keep the balloon in good condition, regularly clean its surface with a soft cloth and avoid using harsh detergents that may damage the material.
As needed, apply protective treatments to prevent UV radiation from damaging the balloon’s material.
Emergency Situations
Balloon Damage
If you notice air leakage, immediately stop using the buoyancy balloon. Contact the manufacturer or service center to perform the necessary repair or replace the damaged part.
If the balloon is damaged on the water, immediately adjust the position of the vessel to minimize the risk of capsizing or sinking.
Additional Notes
Assembly and Disassembly
Ensure that the balloon is properly installed before starting the voyage. Check the stability of the attachments and valves before each use.
Transport
When transporting buoyancy balloons, protect them from sharp objects and ensure they are stored in a position that prevents damage.
Contact in Case of Problems
If you notice any manufacturing defect or damage to the buoyancy balloon, contact the manufacturer or point of sale. Do not modify the balloon yourself, as this may affect its functionality and safety.
