Description
- Designed for experienced rope access workers
- Easy to use:
- safety gate on the moving side plate allows the rope to be installed easily while the device remains connected to the harness, facilitating the passage of intermediate anchors
- easy rope installation, thanks to the rope guide and markings
- ergonomic handle allows the rope to be released and enables convenient descent control. Two possible descent modes: on the side plate or in the V-shaped friction channel
- AUTO-LOCK system allows users to easily position themselves at the work station without having to manipulate the handle or tie off the device: as soon as the user releases the handle, the rope is automatically locked in the device.
- The automatic return system on the handle limits the risk of the device getting accidentally snagged
- handle automatically switches to storage position when the rope is removed from the device, reducing the risk of accidental snagging when the descender is carried on the harness
- Versatile:
- once locked, the rope can be taken up without having to manipulate the handle, allowing for easy short ascents, for example
- cam can be manipulated to take up slack easily or belay a lead using climbing techniques
- The stainless steel wear plate improves durability by reinforcing the rope friction zone
- Descending a heavy load up to 200 kg
- Rope compatibility: 10 to 11.5 mm in diameter
- Available in two colors: yellow and black
