Personal Evacuation Devices

PED5

The PED5 is used for confined space or work and rescue tasks. The device can work with a bosuns chair, harness or rescue sling. The kernmantle rope runs over a top and bottom pulley and the user can either ascend or descend independent of any other person, control being maintained by the ascender which can be either right or left handed. In rescue, or as an assist, another person can help raise or lower the user with an ascender, independent of the person in the chair or harness.
