Ruth Lee

The Lifeguard training manikin was designed in consultation with the Royal Life Saving Society UK (RLSS) and is a revolutionary new product which allows trainee lifeguards to learn vital skills. See the video link below.

Once thrown into the pool, the manikin quickly sinks beneath the surface and lifeguards can train to retrieve it from the bottom, tow it to the side using a variety of towing techniques, and perfect their lifting techniques. All using one manikin, instead of switching between plastic torsos and live volunteers!

Available in Adult and Junior sizes. The Junior manikin is 43.3" (1.10m) in height and 35.3 lbs. (16Kg) to represent a 4-5yr old. Statistically, this is an age range most at risk of drowning.

Features

Constructed from the same flame retardant material used in Police ballistic/stab vests, offering 4x the strength and abrasion resistance of 16oz canvas or P.V.C. (conforms to OEKO-TEX Standard 100, BS EN ISO 12947-2 & 14116: 2008). High density polypropylene webbing(25mm rated to 207 Kg, 50mm rated to 440Kg).

The original Ruth Lee Technical Rescue CPR manikin has been update to use the GEN2 manikin body for greater durability.

This manikin take CPR out of the classroom and puts into technical Rescue Training. The manikin will allow for realistic body-weight CPR training in more difficult situations i.e confined spaces or with the manikin trapped under a vehicle or collapsed building etc. This manikin takes CPR / Medical training out of the clean, classroom environment and integrates it into a realistic technical rescue training situation. This manikin can be placed into confined spaces, trapped under a vehicle or train, or under concrete or wooden beams etc; These are situations where rescuers might actually come across casualties, where they may not be able to move them into a 'convenient' position to carry out CPR.

This manikin adds an additional dimension to technical rescue and CPR training. The torso isn't actually fixed to the manikin in any way and can simply be lifted out for cleaning or maintenance. The chest cavity of the manikin is also padded all round to protect the torso, when used in difficult situations. The torso is constructed of soft, realistic vinyl plastic over polyurethane foam. The complete manikin is available in 2 weights and includes three disposable / lung airway systems and three channel design mouth / nose pieces.

Features include:

• long torso for realistic abdominal thrusts
• realistic head tilt and chin lift for opening airway
• anatomical landmarks including sternum and ribcage plus substernal notch.
• easily manipulated airway to simulate airway obstruction or choking situations.

Built to the same tough construction standard as the General Use Manikin, the Man Overboard Water Rescue Manikin is built to simulate an unconscious victim in the water, floating at an angle of 45 degrees with just the head and shoulders above the water. It can be made to Float Horizontally by simply removing the 6 foam pieces from the front chest of the overall and add three pieces to the pockets on each leg. The secret to the performance of this manikin is the balance between the weighting and the buoyancy - the tough Nylon mesh carcass allows the water to penetrate rapidly and after a few minutes the legs will drop below the surface, resting at an angle of about 45 degrees with just the head and shoulders visible above the surface. It will take seconds to swap between a horizontally floating manikin and the standard position.

The head is color-coded with a Red face. Strong plastic strips in the manikin run from the shoulders to the knee. The strips maintain overall flexibility but don't allow the manikin to bend in half to aid with training with stretchers. The outer carcass is constructed of heavy duty open mesh reinforced with webbing. Non-absorbent closed cell foam - water absorption : 1 Day < 0.1 (DIN 53428 1986) 28 Days < 0.5% VOL.

Color: Man-Overboard Orange w/ SOLAS reflective strips.

Designed to aid dive team recovery training
The Dive Rescue / Recovery Manikin is constructed using a reinforced, heavy-duty Nylon mesh for the carcass with non-absorbent closed cell foam for buoyancy. The mesh allows the water to flood out of the body as it is being recovered and also allows better ventilation when the manikin is hung up to dry. Polypropylene strips running from the shoulder area to the knee joint allow flexibility in and out of the water, but do not allow the manikin to bend in half when using stretchers or recovery devices like the Jacobs Cradle. The addition of the facemask and wig gives a realistic look and feel and aids the identification of a human body in poor visibility.

The Adult manikin has a dry weight of 110 lbs.(50Kg) out of the water and will sink quickly to the desired position; the closed-cell foam adds to the buoyancy, giving a weight of 22 lbs (10Kg) in the water which is a realistic weight of a body in the water. They are supplied complete with Wellington boots and protective coveralls which greatly protect the manikin and are user-replaceable if damaged. One of the unique features of this manikin is that it is Sonar-Compatible. Unlike water-filled molded plastic manikins, the Ruth Lee manikin has mass and is capable of being seen on sonar. Examine the sonar images and you will see our Dive Rescue / Recovery manikin laying on its side. NOTE: The Dive Rescue/Recovery manikin is for in-water training for Dive Rescue Teams. It is not designed to float. Rather, it is designed to be an analog for a body recovery from depth. For on-water training, use the OSCAR Man-Overboard manikin.

Drop Test Manikin

As the name suggests, this manikin is perfect for testing fall arrest equipment and harnesses. The Drop Test Manikin may include steel shot to attain the desired weight.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

The Bernard K-9 Manikin was created to help rescuers deal with either K-9 victims or Working Dogs in the vertical environment. Bernard fits into K-9 harnesses for medium sized dogs.

A new Manikin, purpose-built for Working at Height Scenarios

An extremely tough manikin for Working at Height training in many industries: Wind Turbines, Telecommunications, Stage and Theater, Scaffolding, Police & Military, Maritime, Factories & Industry, Fire & Rescue, Cleaning and Maintenance, Construction, Pole Top and Tower Rescues. The RLWAH50 50Kg adult can be considered to be the industry standard and is a little more manageable than the 70Kg model.

These manikins are essentially a combination of the General Duty range and the Offshore manikins - construction is the same as the Duty models but the torso contains Polypropylene plastic strips and closed-cell foam, which creates a more rigid structure. This structure helps the manikin to maintain its shape when used in a harness and prevents 'slumping'.

Effective, realistic training will help to ensure compliance with the Work at Height Regulations 2005 (UK) by reducing and controlling the risks involved with Working at Height - our manikins can help achieve this.
