Red Parachute Rocket

A red parachute‑rocket distress signal that ascends to about 300 m and burns for ~40 seconds, providing a high‑visibility aerial flare compliant with SOLAS requirements. The supplied category identifies the equipment as Distress Signals (Pyrotechnics), and it is normally installed in designated bridge, lifeboat, rescue or emergency-equipment stowage positions. In that listed role, its primary purpose is to attract attention, mark distress or establish a rescue connection during an emergency. Pyrotechnics, emergency lights and line-throwing appliances use different activation methods, so storage, expiry and operating instructions are specific to the approved item. The model designation identifies the listed configuration, but no additional performance, approval or construction detail is inferred from the model code beyond the information supplied in the source record. The source metadata also states capacity: 1 signal. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
