Mustang Survival 79282 Hydrostatic Release Unit (HRU)

The Mustang Survival 79282 is a hydrostatic release unit (HRU) designed for use with inflatable life rafts and emergency positioning equipment in marine safety systems. The HRU automatically activates and releases the life raft or EPIRB mounting bracket when submerged to a depth of approximately 1.5 to 4 meters (5 to 13 feet), allowing the raft or device to float free in the event the vessel sinks rapidly.

Key Features:

• Automatic hydrostatic activation — no manual intervention required
• Activates at a depth of approximately 1.5–4 meters (5–13 feet)
• Compatible with Mustang Survival life raft mounting brackets and cradle systems
• Single-use design ensures reliable, consistent performance
• Clearly marked expiration date for compliance and inspection tracking
• Constructed for harsh saltwater and offshore marine environments

The Mustang Survival 79282 HRU is an essential component of any properly equipped offshore vessel safety system. It is a single-use, time-limited device that must be replaced upon expiration or after activation. Regular inspection is recommended to ensure the unit is within its service life and properly secured to the life raft cradle or bracket.
