Description
The 210/212/412 Emergency Float Kits consist of: six emergency floats attached to the skid gear, four water-activated float switches that are mounted on the underside of the fuselage, a float inflation reservoir located in the nose compartment, a collective-mounted FLOATS switch, a center console-mounted handle lever, and the necessary hardware to complete kit installation. The Emergency Float Kit with Liferafts also contains two 10-man reversible liferafts which are attached to the Mid floats and have their own mechanical inflation system consisting of: one liferaft inflation reservoir and three inflation handles, two attached externally to the passenger steps and one attached to the center console on the co-pilot side. The 210/212/412 combination float and liferaft system weighs 328 pounds, which is lighter than the original OEM Bell 412 emergency float system without liferaft.
