Ensure effective protection with the correct size Helite CO2 Canister.
Helite Airbags offers four sizes of CO2 canisters (50 CC, 60 CC, 85cc, and 100 CC) designed to provide effective protection according to the airbag volume. These canisters are suitable for all motorcycle and equestrian airbag vests and jackets that use a mechanical (lanyard) trigger. Please ensure you purchase the correct size canister for your vest or jacket.
The system can be reactivated by yourself within a few minutes without any special knowledge required. In the event of a fall, replace the empty canister with a new one of the same capacity of the Helite brand. The size of the canister is proportional to the size of the airbag.
Helite canisters come with a 10-year warranty and do not have an expiry date. One canister is always included with your airbag. It is recommended to have one additional canister that you can quickly replace in case of a fall. Be sure to use a Helite branded canister as the efficacy and compatibility of other brands cannot be accounted for with Helite Airvest products.
Important Information:
For safety reasons, you are asked to check your airbag on an annual basis. Unscrew and weigh your CO2 canister on a scale. Please make sure the weight is approximately +/- 3g for 50CC and 60CC canisters or +/- 5g for 100CC canisters compared to the weight written on the Helite sticker on the canister.
Precautions for Canisters:
- Use only Helite brand canisters.
- The canister is for single use only. You must replace the canister with the same type after each inflation.
- If rust or other corrosive marks appear on the outer surface of the canister, change it immediately and contact Helite Airbags.
- The canister should be stored and used in temperatures below 45°C. Do not expose the full canisters for a long time to high temperatures (in direct sunlight, near a radiator, etc.).
- The canister must be used at a temperature over 0°C. If stored under 0°C, warm up before use or replace it with a canister stored at room temperature.
- Avoid shocks to the canister, this could damage it.
- The used or damaged canister will have to be recycled or disposed of in accordance with your country’s legislation.
