Floating pouch for PLB3

The flotation pouch keeps your PLB3 distress beacon afloat if it falls into the water. It is an essential safety accessory to prevent losing your equipment at the bottom of the water.

No, although the PLB3 beacon is fully waterproof, its density does not allow it to float autonomously. It is therefore essential to use this pouch to ensure positive buoyancy.

No, this pouch is specifically designed and molded to fit the dimensions of the rescueME PLB3 beacon. It is not suitable for other beacon models.

Absolutely not. The pouch is designed to ensure secure retention while providing completely free access to the beacon's activation controls in an emergency.

The pouch is extremely light. It weighs only 50 grams, which allows you to add it to your survival equipment without adding any bulk.

Thanks to its featherweight and ergonomic design, the pouch can be comfortably worn by attaching it directly to your lifejacket.

Yes, it is made with high-visibility materials. This greatly facilitates visual detection of your survival equipment among waves or in low-light conditions.

No, it is not necessary to remove it. The sleeve design does not block access to the buttons, allowing you to activate the tag directly while keeping it protected.

Although its primary function is to ensure the beacon's buoyancy, the pouch envelops the device and provides slight additional protection against abrasion and minor impacts from the marine environment.

No, the PLB1 beacon has different dimensions from the PLB3. This pouch is custom-made exclusively for Ocean Signal's PLB3 model.

Yes, the pouch is made with highly resistant materials, specifically selected to withstand harsh marine conditions such as saltwater and spray.

Simply slide your PLB3 beacon gently into the pouch, ensuring the antenna area and activation buttons align with the designated openings.

No, the materials used in the pouch do not interfere with the waves. The distress signals emitted by the beacon pass through the pouch without any loss of effectiveness.

No, this flotation pouch is a separately sold accessory. It is an add-on to the purchase of your PLB3 personal distress beacon.

For any nautical use, this accessory is considered strictly essential. Without it, a fallen-overboard beacon would sink and be irretrievably lost.

It is recommended to rinse the pouch with fresh water at the same time as your beacon after any exposure to seawater, then let it air dry to preserve the materials.

Not at all. At just 50 grams and perfectly fitted to the beacon, it adds no extra bulk to your lifejacket.
