This manual provides you with information about the function and
use of the OSPREY ALPRIDE E1 AIRBAG SYSTEM. It applies to every
out of bounds snow sport enthusiast.
Please read this manual carefully before you use the device. Pay
special attention to the warning notices and strictly adhere to
the information within the owner's manual. In order to be able to
easily consult this owner's manual we suggest that you keep it in a
convenient location.
The OSPREY ALPRIDE E1 AIRBAG SYSTEM is emergency
equipment, which under certain conditions can prevent a total
burial if activated. It cannot prevent the release of an avalanche. An
element of deadly risk remains even if the user doesn't get buried.
Every avalanche is absolutely life threatening regardless of any
equipment. Therefore, the ALPRIDE E1 AIRBAG SYSTEM should not
encourage you to take greater risks.
The OSPREY ALPRIDE E1 AIRBAG SYSTEM is certified by TÜV Süd (Daimlerstr. 11, 85748 Garching bei München, Germany.) to meet the
requirements of the EU regulation (EU 2016 / 425).
In the event of an avalanche, the user must tug on the trigger
handle in order to activate the inflation: this inflates the 150-litre
avalanche airbag within 3 seconds.
The OSPREY ALPRIDE E1 AIRBAG SYSTEM concept is based on
the physical principle of inverse segregation. This is a phenomenon
whereby, given a uniformly moving mass of particles, the smaller
particles sink downwards and the larger ones float to the surface.
The inflated airbag increases the victim's volume and greatly
amplifies this inverse segregation effect. The avalanche backpack
helps prevent total burial in the snow. The airbag's shape protects
the back and the head of the user. Moreover, the rounded shape
gives optimal float efficiency on the avalanche and the bright airbag
color helps rapid localization.
