This auto-braking rescue device incorporates a panic-proof self-locking function, combining the various advantages of both industrial and rescue descenders. Its compact structure and ergonomic design offer better control and a longer service life. The entire unit is constructed from metal, allowing it to maintain its original strength in high-temperature environments with heat radiation.
- Features dual upper and lower fixing hole positions, enabling quick setup of pulley systems. A single hole allows the side plate to be opened without unlocking, preventing slippage. The short lever travel ensures precise and rapid operation, optimizing load release maneuvers for rescue.
- The 4-position, auto-returning handle features a panic-proof mechanism. It automatically locks and stops the rope if the user releases both hands or operates it incorrectly in a panic. It also provides an instant stop if the user presses the handle down excessively due to fright.
- Simple and intuitive rope installation, with a built-in rope protection slider to reduce friction damage and internal guides to prevent incorrect rigging.
- The toothed protrusion on the braking cam can be pressed to facilitate movement on gentle slopes or low-angle terrain.
- The descender's side plate can be opened via the opening button even while clipped into a carabiner, allowing installation at any point on the rope and preventing equipment drops.
- Includes an additional friction block specifically designed for heavy-load descent and lowering.
- The handle is made from aluminum alloy for enhanced strength.
