LiftingSafety Automatic Evacuation Rescue Descender / Fall Arrest Inertia Reel Block, Aluminium Housing, Steel Cable Lanyard with Snap Hook - 9m, 18m or 30m
Fall arrest block with built-in auto descent function for self-rescue. Conforms to EN360 and EN341.
1FAD-2680






Specifically developed to offer fall protection and rescue in one, that is easy to use.
Working similar to a car safety belt, during normal use the user can move freely whilst the galvanised steel cable lifeline is kept under permanent tension. This device functions in the same way as a conventional fall arrest block, however once the fall has been arrested, the device immediately lowers the user to the ground at a constant speed of 0.9m/sec.
Certified to EN360 and EN341 and with an integral controlled descent mechanism these Aluminium housed Fall Arrest Blocks are sturdy and low maintenance and available with a 9m, 18m or 30m steel rope lifeline. The snaphook with a fall indicator, installed in the retractable fasteners, shows the user whether the device has been encumbered by a fall, thus making a check necessary.
