CSAV MILITARY LIFE PRESERVER TECHNICAL MANUAL
SYSTEM LAYOUT
SureLock™ Weight Integrated System
The CSAV vest is supplied with four () removable SureLock™ weight pouches,
two () 10-LB pouches and two () 15-LB pouches. This is a positive lock-
ing, mechanical release weight system. Each pocket is capable of holding up
to 10 LB (.5 kg), or 15 LB (6. kg), respectively, of lead weights. Hard cast
weights or soft weights can be used. The sheath portion can be attached to
the CSAV using the built in "MOLLE" style straps. The weight pouches can
then be inserted or removed in the same manner as other weight integrated
diving BCs. When the weight pouch is inserted in the sheath, the diver should
hear and feel the pouch "click" in. This assures the diver that the weight pouch
is firmly and securely attached.
Integrated Non-ditchable weight pockets
The CSAV is designed with two internal pockets designed for specific place-
ment of two lead weight pouches. These pockets, pictured below, are located
on the rear/inside of the CSAV. Each has a secure Velcro closure. These
are to be used with LB soft weights for MK5 and may be used for other
configurations as well.
