a -K in the unit part number). Buckles are
of black nylon or stainless steel. Press-
studs are of brass or nickel plated brass.
On Kevlar versions the pneumatics and
TM

loops closed by press-studs. On EN
versions the loops do not open.
For wearer comfort, a lumbar pad (fitted
as standard), or a full back pad (fitted as
an option) is provided. Both are fabricated
from flame-retardant material and packed
with flame retardant, closed cell foam.
The lumbar pad is held in place by four

press studs and the harness straps.
A chest-strap is available as an option.

CYLINDER BAND

Contour can be configured for use with
one or two (Duo), 200, 207 or 300 bar,
steel or fully wrapped aluminium carbon
fibre composite cylinders (see Table 3).
Cylinders are secured to the light-weight
back-plate by a webbing cylinder band
and a cylinder valve retainer (CVR). A
conversion kit is available for converting
single cylinder apparatus to Duo.
The webbing cylinder band is closed by a
cam lock buckle with a latch that prevents
accidental opening. The band can be
adjusted to accept the range of cylinders
listed in Table 3. The cam-lock buckle
facilitates replacement of similar size
cylinders without
adjustment.
Contour Duo cylinder bands can be
easily altered by the wearer (no tools
required) to mount a single cylinder,
centrally on the back-plate.
