Automatic Activation Devices


large/Cypres2.jpgCypres-2 AAD by Airtec GmbH
The best just got better! As the next generation of CYPRES, CYPRES 2 combines tried and true quality and reliability with new achievements, technology, and discoveries made during the past 12 years of continued research and development.

Proven parameters remain the same:
  • activation altitudes
  • activation velocities
  • user interface (single push button)
  • loop cutting system
  • CYPRES closing loop
  • 14 hours run time

    Optimized parameters:
  • Self-test is completed in 10 seconds
  • Changing altitude reference - same procedure but faster

    CYPRES 2 offers numerous additional features and attributes including:
  • unit is water-resistant for 15 minutes at a depth of 15 feet (5 meters) in fresh and salt water
  • power supply of CYPRES 2 is maintenance-free for the user; there is no need to observe a replacement date, record the number of jumps made, monitor the voltage during self-test, purchase a battery, or have a rigger open or repack the reserve for this reason
  • unit serial number accessible from the display anytime you want to see it
  • next maintenance due date accessible from the display anytime you want to see it
  • reminds you when the maintenance date comes near
  • smaller and lighter
  • robust, rigger friendly case, with rounded corners and edges
  • extended maintenance window: +/- 6 months from month of manufacture, no down-time during the busy part of the year regardless of month of manufacture

    According to Airtec's current standard of knowledge, the total lifetime of CYPRES 2 should be 12 years.

    As with ANY Automatic Activation Device, the CYPRES 2 is to be used as a last-resort safety device only. It was never intended to, and is not to be used as a parachute’s primary opening system.

    The Skydiver's Guardian Angel

    Like any other AAD on the market, the purpose of the Vigil® II is to save lifes.

    Overall Advantages:
  • Unique patented time calculation giving high accuracy opening
  • Patented cutter device (circular knife) cuts the reserve loop twice
  • Special flexible connecting wires: easy to install in all rigs
  • Battery molded in epoxy (no leakage possible)
  • A very robust device
  • A competitive price and a low total owner cost

    Features:
  • Multimode: 3 Modes in 1: PRO – STUDENT – TANDEM: Students, once out of student status, switch your Vigil® II to PRO. Experienced skydivers, PRO or TANDEM, the Vigil® II will follow. Schools and drop zones: the versatility of the 3 modes is far more cost effective then having to purchase and maintain three separate fleets of mode-specific AADs.
  • Life Expectancy: Vigil® II is designed for 20 years life expectancy
  • User Friendly: Alpha numeric display for easy configuration and clear communication
  • Memory Features: Logbook with total number of jumps, overall free fall time, last free fall time, max speed of the last free fall, number of saves, atmospheric pressure, and temperature.

    As with ANY Automatic Activation Device, the Vigil® II is to be used as a last-resort safety device only. It was never intended to, and is not to be used as a parachute’s primary opening system.
