Water Tommanikin - Basic

Realism for Water Rescue and Tactical Care

The Water Tommanikin - Basic is built for instructors who train responders in maritime, flood, and shipboard casualty scenarios. It gives medics, EMTs, tactical teams, dive units, and rescue swimmers a realistic casualty to practice lifesaving interventions under wet conditions, including hemorrhage control, airway management, and fluid resuscitation simulations. Because the unit is waterproof and submersion proof, teams can rehearse patient packaging, hoist operations, and surface to submerged transitions without compromising equipment reliability. The Water Tommanikin - Basic closes the gap between dry land drills and operational realities, enabling repeatable, high fidelity training that builds confidence and decision making in water based emergencies.

Purpose Built Controls and Onboard Systems

This trainer combines rugged hardware with advanced control capability, featuring a waterproof protected main control box and an onboard air compressor option for field use. The system includes a 1.2 gallon onboard blood reservoir, smart 12V NiMH batteries in 5AH and 10AH sizes with chargers, and a Pelican 1500 accessories case for tools and connectors. Instructors operate the manikin via a remote tablet and software package with instructor Bluetooth headset support for clear voice and communication. The package also ships with T handle tools, fluid connectors, and a detailed operator manual to streamline setup for complex scenarios.

Built Tough for Repeated Use

Durability is central to the Water Tommanikin - Basic, constructed from heavy duty nylon trilaminate with liquid seam sealing technology to resist leaks and abrasion. YKK waterproof zippers secure access points while maintaining integrity during submersion. The design tolerates frequent training cycles in austere environments, remaining water resistant and low maintenance for programs that demand dependable equipment. With a configuration dependent weight range of 160 to 190 lbs, the manikin balances stability for realistic handling with portability for staged deployments and storage in the included Pelican case.

Flexible Scenarios and Comprehensive Intervention Training

The platform supports a wide range of scenarios, offering versatile wounding patterns and 35 bleeding operative sites to challenge teams with complex hemorrhage control tasks. Comprehensive intervention capabilities enable practice of airway procedures, fluid management, and other critical actions integrated into tactical combat casualty care and civilian EMS curricula. Trainers can simulate everything from isolated extremity wounds to multi site bleeding in wet environments, making the Water Tommanikin - Basic a go to asset for maritime training, flood response, tactical medical workshops, and integrated mass casualty exercises.
