FALL RESCUE

B-SAFE RESCUE EQUIPMENT

The ability to rescue a fallen person is required on any site where persons are working at height. Whilst harnesses are worn when working at height, as part of a fall protection system to cradle the body in the event of a fall, it is a distinct advantage when considering a rescue. It is every employers responsibility to ensure that if a person does suffer a fall and is suspended in a harness that they must be able to recover them as quickly as possible.

In this event it is also important that the rescuers are not put in further danger to carry out the rescue. The Auto descender and pole system provide for this by not adding to the hazardous situation putting the rescuer in any danger.

The device is designed to be able to reach the suspended person with an open double action snap hook and attach this to the suspended person through the rear D ring of the harness. The system is designed that if the suspended person is unconscious no further help is required as the attachment can be made without the assistance of the suspended person.

Once the hook is in place the suspended person can be raised to allow for the loaded equipment to be removed. Once this is done the person can be automatically descended to the ground by the device where professional medical attention can be provided.

B-SAFE DESCENDERS

Application: Available for emergency evacuation or rescue from a fall at height can be achieved with ease using a B-Safe Descender. Once attached to the unit a person can descend to the ground safely without having to control the equipment.

Descenders can be used with rope lengths of up to 150m and have descent speed of approximately 0.9m per second. Standard Sizes -
