Ride with confidence knowing you’re protected by the most advanced, MotoGP-proven airbag technology. The Tech-Air® 5 Plasma is 25% lighter than its predecessor, featuring a slim profile, flexible Plasma back protector, and a single-canister design — making it the lightest Tech-Air® system to date.

Electronics System:

• Active electronic system that features six total sensors, 3 gyroscopes and 3 accelerometers (1 tri-axial accelerometer and 1 tri-axial gyroscope)
• Crash algorithm that leverages AI to accurately monitor when to deploy the airbag in the event of a crash
• 30 hours of riding time after a full charge via USB-C charger
• 3 integrated riding modes: Street, off-road and track
• Tech-Air App integration
• Integrated charging port
• Rechargeable while riding
• ON/OFF master switch
• Shipping and storage mode

Airbag System:

• Full upper body coverage: chest, ribs, back and shoulders
• Maximum inflation time of 25-50ms based on the volume of the airbag size
• For any area covered by the airbag, the amount of impact force transferred to the body generated from a crash is reduced by up to 95%
• Airbag unit certified up to 6 deployments
• Self-serviceable – Riders can easily test the integrity of the bladder and replace the argon canister without sending out for service
• Single-canister design reduces weight, enables faster airbag inflation and simplifies servicing
• User-replaceable 0.7 mol gas inflater argon canister – proven from MotoGP System
• User-performed Airbag Integrity Test protocol for after deployment (Schrader test valve adapter included)

• Ultra-slim profile back and minimal material construction for optimal comfort and wearability
• Full stretch chassis for an adaptive fit, freedom of movement and reduced overall bulk
• Ultra-thin mono-layer stretch mesh construction at the collar, underarms and front of the body
• Ergonomic sleeves with deeper cut around armpits for enhanced mobility
• Cut longer at the rear for enhanced coverage and protection, with a contoured, low-cut neck for reduced material contact with skin for added comfort
• Superior breathability with extended stretch mesh panels all around the body
• Moisture wicking treatment for maximum rider comfort

Intuitive Operation:

• Automatic activation on central zip closure with large and reliable activation area
• 2 second press for quick riding mode swap
• Vibrating signal integrated
  • 1s vibration on activation or riding mode change
  • 3s vibration on deactivation
• Integrated LED display indicates system status, riding mode and battery level

CE Certification:

• The Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA System and all the included protective parts are Category II certified PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) under European Regulation (UE) 2016/425 and in compliance under corresponding UK legislation
• The passive back-protector is CE certified according to the EN1621-2:2014 Level 1 (Full Back)
• The inflatable protector is CE certified according to EN 1621-4:2013 Level 1 (Full Back).
• The System is CE certified as a protective garment for motorcycle riders according to the EN 17092-6:2020 as a Class C undergarment

Note: Read the entire user manual prior to operation. It is highly recommended that the Tech-Air 5 Plasma always be used together with a protective outer garment, as the Tech-Air 5 Plasma is NOT abrasion resistant. It can be used with any protective garment that covers the upper body and that is designed for motorcycle riding, provided that the garment has sufficient space to allow for the expansion of the airbag after the deployment.
