Description
ROTOR MaxLift powered automatic rescue and evacuation descender – constant rate rescue descender with automatic descent speed control for escape, self-evacuation and rescue from tall structures such as wind turbines and tower cranes. Offers enhanced rescue lifting capability when combined with our MaxLift PowerPack driver set.
The ROTOR MaxLift is power assisted making it optimised for both rescue and lifting applications, including ‘Rescue Up’. This powered descender excels at long distances and heavy load lifts.
Lifting is achieved with a detachable ratchet handle or cordless driver MaxLift PowerPack unit available separately. Both typically give faster lifting speeds than wheel driven devices and utilise the integrated progress capture ratchet lock.
The ROTOR MaxLift automatically controls the speed of descent. Friction points give additional manual control for lowering a casualty if required.
The cordless driver MaxLift PowerPack is specified and tested for use with the D62 ROTOR MaxLift Powered Automatic Rescue and Evacuation Descender to minimise potential user injury due to torque employed. Not all drivers with nominal torque specification will function safely.
The ROTOR rescue and evacuation descender features integral load indicator shows if the device has been used.
Tested for conformity assessment to lift in dry, wet and cold (-4) conditioning 30kg (min), 140kg (rated), 215kg (overload) and 300kg (max x 8m)
ROTOR MaxLift device can be used in any orientation, and is not limited to passive (attached to anchor point) or active (direct to users harness) modes. No external moving parts when descending, to prevent risk of injury, entrapment or affect descent.
