Drowning is nearly always preventable. So why is drowning one of the leading causes of accidental death in the USA and throughout the developed world? Because the risk of accidental drowning is underestimated by adults of all ages. Safety Turtle provides continuous protection to the wearer. This continuous protection compares to water disturbance pool alarms which are deactivated (and reactivated) by whoever uses or cleans the pool or spa. This distinction is vital because toddler accidents often occur when a pool or spa area is left unsecured or when adults are in attendance. A Safety Turtle personal alarm can also accompany a child on vacation or on visits to a boat, cottage or another pool, where unfamiliar surroundings and less security add risk.

Features
Unique features in the design of Safety Turtle address your water safety concerns and make it easy to use with your child(ren):
- Safety Turtle works with ALL Fresh Water, natural [lake, river and pond] or man made [pool, hot tub and pond].
- For use with salt water.
- No installation required.
- Quick set up and test.
- A loud alarm instantly sounds at the Base Station when the Turtle is immersed in water. The alarm continues to sound until it is reset.
- Rain or light spray won't trigger the alarm.
- Children enjoy wearing the colorful Turtle Wristbands.
- The Turtle Wristband locks securely around a child's wrist, using the key provided.
- The Turtle is permanently sealed and rugged to withstand children's play.
- The Turtle has a battery life of 3 – 4 years
- A child wearing his/her Turtle is protected even while the pool is in use or is being cleaned. There is no need to ever “turn off” the system.
- No installation at the pool is required.
- Safety Turtle is easily portable, and with the Turtle Power battery pack / weatherproof bag accessory, can be used anywhere.
- The alarm volume can be reduced temporarily for testing.
- The Turtle(s) can be tested for low battery.
- The Safety Turtle system can be progressively expanded through the purchase of additional sensors(s) of the same color.
- The Turtle helps you teach your child water safety.
- By using different colors of Turtle, neighbors can enjoy the benefits of Safety Turtle without triggering each other's alarms.
- Unlike other pool alarms, Safety Turtle can alert if your child falls in an immediate neighbor's pool, spa or pond.

A standard child immersion alarm system consists of:
- One Turtle Wristband including a 7.8 inch locking wristband, key and matching “baby Turtle” coding plug for Base Station (You can also purchase multiple Turtle Wristbands for one base station)
- A Standard Base Station

Immersion Alarm and Salt Water
Natural fresh water does not greatly impede the signal radiating from an immersed Turtle. No matter how fast a Turtle descends in the water, it will always alarm on the way down.
An increase in salt concentration increases water’s conductivity, making propagation of a radio wave more difficult. This has the effect of reducing “depth coverage”, the depth below which a Base Station cannot decipher the signal transmitted by an immersed Turtle.
Note: Salt does NOT affect the operation of the electronics or a Turtle’s operating life.
Child Use with Natural Fresh Water
The following applies to fresh water having NO sea water influence.
The Turtle may be attached anywhere a child cannot remove it, except under clothing that might prevent or delay it getting wet on entry in the water.
Use with Sea Water
The Turtle will not alarm reliably on entry in the water. To work reliably, the Turtle must thereafter break or nearly break the surface of the water.
Boating – Alarming is not 100 % reliable unless the subject is also wearing a life jacket.
Attach Turtle to rear shoulder strap [above the buoyancy line] using Velcro Adaptor, or to wrist using locking wristband.
Shoreline – While not 100% reliable in all cases, Safety Turtle is effective with a graduated beach. Even if the child is knocked down by a breaker, alarming will occur when the breaker recedes.
Attach Turtle to wrist only.
Use with Salt Chlorinated Pools
Do you have a salt chlorinated pool? If you aren’t sure, consult your pool contractor. If you do have a salt chlorinated pool, read the following:
The salt concentration of chloride salt pools and spas is typically 2,400 to 3,600 ppm, but this varies in practice. The concentration of bromide salt pools and spas is about half this. The salt concentration of non-salt chlorinated pools and spas, including pools using ozonators, varies from 50 parts per million [ppm] to several hundred ppm.
For succesful set up with a chloride salt pool, the Base Station may have to be less than 50 ft. [15 m.] from the pool. Above a 4000 ppm salt concentration, the Base Station may have to be pool side.
Safety Turtle is not a substitute for diligent supervision or an adequate barrier to restrict the access of children to water hazards.
