IMPORTANT!
There are some limitations on the deployment of Tech-Air
inside the Envelope of Protection (like a high impact angle on a crash
against an obstacle, or low impact forces). In general, the System is not
expected to deploy if the impact energy is too low.
In Street Mode, Envelope of Protection for Crashes Where a Vehicle Strikes a
Stationary Motorcycle:
Arrival Speed
Impact Angle
The above parameters are valid for both rider and passenger.
In Street Mode, Envelope of Protection for Crashes Where a Motorcycle Strikes a
Vehicle or Obstacle (Figure 3):
Arrival Speed
Impact Angle (Fig 3)
The above parameters are valid for both the rider and passenger.
IMPORTANT!
Figure 3 outlines the Envelope of Protection where the Tech-Air
is expected to inflate before the user's body contacts an obstacle. At speeds
above 25km/h the System will deploy regardless of the impact angle, but
outside the Envelope of Protection the System may not be fully inflated
before there is contact between the obstacle and the user.
IMPORTANT!
If Race Mode is selected, the System may not deploy before the
first impact, but may deploy if the rider suddenly falls from the
motorcycle after the impact, regardless of the impact angle.
WARNING!
Always make sure to select the Street Mode when riding on roads.
Only use Race Mode for closed race track use.
