New Animation: How the T-ISS SeaMate VE-1 HRU Works

Posted by Nicky Smol on October 8, 2025 in Product information

We are proud to present our brand-new animation video showcasing the T-ISS SeaMate VE-1 Hydrostatic Release Unit (HRU) in action. This clear and engaging visual explains how our HRU automatically releases a life raft in the event of a vessel sinking — step by step, from activation underwater to the safe inflation of the life raft at the surface.

The SeaMate VE-1 Hydrostatic Release Unit is designed to ensure maximum safety and reliability at sea. It features a 3-year expiry life instead of the common 2 years, resulting in longer replacement intervals and reduced maintenance costs. The HRU also performs reliably in all weather conditions — from extreme heat to freezing cold — and helps reduce environmental impact through its durable, innovative design.

Available in five different models, the SeaMate VE-1 offers a versatile solution for a wide range of marine and offshore applications. Fully compliant with ISO 15734 and equipped with all necessary approvals and certifications, it stands out as a trusted choice for maritime safety professionals worldwide.

Watch the video below to see how the T-ISS SeaMate VE-1 HRU operates and discover why it has become a benchmark in reliable life raft release systems.
