ACR OLAS Guardian Man Overboard Alarm & Cut Off Switch

Product Description

OLAS Guardian Man Overboard Alarm & Cut Off Switch

The OLAS Guardian is a wireless engine kill switch that acts within two seconds of a person falling overboard. It has the dual function of also acting as an instant, Man Overboard Alarm system. The Guardian simply connects with up to 15 wearable OLAS transmitters (wrist Tags or OLAS Float On Light), creating a virtual kill cord, and can cover a vessel up to 50ft. OLAS Guardian means power boat and RIB drivers are assured that their boat will stop in an instant, and / or an alarm will occur should the skipper or crew get separated from the boat, reducing the chances of a serious accident from a loose, unmanned, uncontrolled powerboat and ensuring a swift recovery can be actioned. They are free to move around their boat without constantly having to remember to attach, detach and re-attach a physical wired kill cord.

The Guardian connects to a vessels 12/24V power supply and existing kill switch using the supplied connectors making it quick and easy to install with immediate usability. A 21mm hole is required near to the existing kill switch for the 20mm stainless steel, LED control switch to be installed. The Guardian can be used in-place of or alongside an existing kill cord switch and will operate if the physical kill cord has not been attached to the driver. On most engines a simple parallel connection to the existing kill switch will enable full wireless cut-off capability. The Guardian is easily operated via the OLAS App, free to download from the App Store for iOS and the Google Play Store for Android. The OLAS App is a powerful tool for controlling the Guardians functions and for aiding in fast rescue.
