Description


A state-of-the-art wearable system offering rescue personnel the advantage of battery powered underwater propulsion to enhance performance and reduce fatigue during underwater operations. Developed and manufactured in the U.K. by Northern Diver, our Side Mounted Dive Thrusters are at the forefront of innovation. They offer hands free propulsion, via the latest technology, unrivalled construction and expert engineering, effectively enhancing performance and reducing fatigue during search & rescue operations.


After learning about the difficulties and kit restrictions that the technical fire brigade water rescue teams were experiencing, we redesigned the layout of our original DT4 Dive Thrusters to solve the problem. Our personal propulsion thrusters are now available to any rescue team in a side mounted model and have been designed specifically for rescue applications.
