This <strong>Magazine</strong> features an important part of the products and services<br />

we provide in the field of ACCESS. It is however impossible to cover all<br />

topics and information in this issue. Check www.tags.systems for a full<br />

overview, the latest information on products.<br />

HOW SIMPLE...?<br />

Push the projectile in the barrel. Put safety catch on. The<br />

safety catch puts a <strong>10</strong>0% mechanical lock on the projectile<br />

and locks the trigger also. Rest assured we made it very<br />

reliable. Open the main valve to pressurize the pressure<br />

chamber (have a look at the gauge and pressurize depending<br />

on the height needed). Then aim, release the safety<br />

catch off and pull the trigger. Thats all...<br />

PROJECTILE OPTIONS<br />

The Compact Launcher can be used to deploy a<br />

climbing rope, flexible ladder or towing line (to get<br />

a line from building to building, ship to ship/shore,<br />

over a canyon, etc.). There are two grapnel options<br />

available. Choose the right option based on your<br />

pre-operational intelligence. The SF Kit includes<br />

both Grapnels and a Messenger Line Projectile.<br />

EXTERNAL GRAPNEL<br />

The External Grapnel is the first choise for edges<br />

and round bars. The projectile seals the barrel<br />

watertight so in diving operations the shot can be<br />

taken immediately when surfacing.<br />

Pressure setting. Up to five shots with one air bottle<br />

After a shot you can immediately re-start the process; just<br />

put another projectile in and shoot again. Depending on the<br />

pressure setting it is possible to fire 3-5 projectiles without<br />

the need to exchange the 500cc air bottle. No shot fired?<br />

Make sure the safety catch is on and release the air from<br />

the pressure chamber using the release valve. Remaining<br />

bottle pressure can be measured with a seperate bottle<br />

pressure tester (included in all SF Kits).<br />

The air bottle is fitted with an automatic valve and can be<br />

exchanged very easily in the field as well. Bottles can be<br />

filled using any scuba diving tank or scuba compressor.<br />

The filling assembly fits both 200bar/2900psi INT or DIN<br />

and 300bar/4350psi DIN systems).<br />

FOLDING GRAPNEL<br />

The Folding Grapnel works best on (fishing-) nets,<br />

cables and (wire-) ropes. This grapnel almost completely<br />

dissapears inside the barrel making it very<br />

compact.<br />
