Technical Details

Construction

The PROTECT II RIS L, XL and the PROTECT NANO canopies each
have 20 panels. The PARATEX RS TX40 material is made of porous,
tear-resistant nylon fabric, and weighs only 40g/m2. The main cano-
py seams are reinforced with tapes. The base and apex are streng-
thened similarly with tapes.
The apex is pulled down and located with an elastic middle line. The
bridle has a sewn strength of ca. 2300 kg. The middle line has a
strength of ca. 400 kg. It is firmly spliced on to the apex lines and at
the bridle. The inner container is made of tear-resistant nylon weave,
the edges of the inner container are reinforced. The envelope inner
container has an integral pilot chute and a 3-point fastening. The
4-flap inner container has a 1-point fastening.

Quality control

The PROTECT reserve parachute is subject to stringent checks
and comprehensive quality control throughout the entire production
process. Similarly, the various components, webbing, lines and
sewing materials are tested several times. The production process
is permanently supervised. Every reserve parachute is laid out and
checked for twists before packing. The packing is recorded on video
which is documented and archived.
Materials used
We inspect and test the manufacturing materials many times on an
on-going basis. Like all ADVANCE products the PROTECT reserve
parachute is designed and produced as the result of the latest deve-
lopments and experience. The materials used are very carefully cho-
sen under the strictest quality control supervision.
