Canadyne FlashBoom is a rapidly self-inflating, rapid response emergency deployment curtain type boom. The flotation chamber is cylindrical, and retains its shape and stability by incorporating a series of semi-rigid, lightweight hoops spaced on equal intervals throughout the length of the boom. Rugged one-way inflation check valves are spaced along the top of the flotation chamber. Simple tension during deployment causes the boom to expand and automatically self-inflate.
Booms can be inflated using handheld or backpack inflation blowers, or with integrated hydraulic blowers mounted on a boom storage and deployment reel.
