The ACR OLAS Float-On is a buoyant wearable crew tracker that combines man overboard (MOB) alert technology with essential safety lighting. This compact device integrates seamlessly with the OLAS (Overboard Location Alert System) mobile app to create a virtual tether between crew members and their vessel. When the connection breaks, the system detects the separation within 8 seconds, triggers an alarm on paired mobile devices, and records GPS coordinates of the incident location to guide recovery efforts.
Integrated Safety Lighting:
The Float-On features a powerful LED flashlight with three brightness levels and an automatic water-activated strobe. When the integrated water sensors detect six seconds of water contact, the high-power strobe activates automatically, flashing once per second for up to 20 hours. The strobe is visible up to 3 nautical miles away, providing critical visibility during low-light rescue operations.
