ARZ Lite Duty Low Pressure Inflatable Shelters

Quick and easy to (dis)assemble, modular by design, multifunctional and interconnectable, the ARZ lite duty, low-pressure air shelters are reliable and highly portable. The shelter is made of airtight double-sided PVC-coated polyester fabric (25 oz/yd²) and comes with a completely inflatable frame that is fastened with Velcro closures to the shelter skin and floor. The shelters can be set up by only one person in less than 2 minutes, using an electric blower or compressed air.

ARZ blow-up shelters are designed to make the most of the available space. The air shelters are self-insertable, thanks to their fully inflatable frames. All supporting elements are made of airtight fabric. The ARZ range comes with numerous options and accessories, including partition walls, side windows, an inflation system, lighting, air conditioning, heating, and lettering or branding. Military-grade fabric is available as well for extra durability.

Product description

Frame

For the inflatable frame, we use an extremely robust, though lightweight, fabric, similar to that used for inflatable boats: 25 oz/yd². The seams of the frame are HF welded, and the corner joints are mitered. The frame of the self-erecting ARZ has been optimized for compressed air bottles. The shelters can be set up in 1.5 minutes using the compressed air kit. Depending on shelter size, assembly takes 2-4 minutes when using an electric blower. A pressure relief valve prevents excessive pressure in the frame.

Tubes in the eaves and in the ridge are the same diameter as the supporting frame (0.75 ft). Expensive aspirators to take in additional ambient air are not required. The frame is connected to the shelter skin and floor by means of a hook and loop so it is fully detachable. The inflatable purlins are screwed to the main arcs and pneumatically connected to them by means of transfer valves. That makes it possible to take out single purlins or arcs from the inflatable frame for repairs or in case replacements are needed. A multi-chamber system can be implemented on customer request.

Shelter skin and floor

The shelter skin is made of one side PU-coated polyester fabric (7 oz/yd²), flame retardant, waterproof and mildew resistant. The shelter floor is made of both sides of PVC-coated polyester fabric (16 oz/yd²) and is also available with non-slip embossing as an option (25 oz/yd²). Shelter skin is extremely tear-resistant. However, if needed, the skin, floor and frame can be easily replaced. 11 different standard colours are available, and other colours are available on request.
