Alive-saving appliance no fireman wearing a SCBA should forget about.
The RESCUE LOOP Rescue Sling is suitable and licensed for the attachment to a safety chain during rescue operations in compliance with European regulations (EN 566).
It offers sufficient redundancies with a failure load of 22 kN.
(Many currently available slings have a failure load of only up to 3 kN = 300 kg. Under extreme circumstances, this may lead to life threatening situations!)
The RESCUE-LOOP has a wide range of application:
- Carrying aid to save injured persons
- Emergency harness to rescue an injured person or oneself
- Searching of rooms:
The rescue sling is attached to one fireman’s belt with an HMS carabiner, the other
end is held by the team leader. This way less time is needed to search a room or
area and yet the team is safely connected by the rescue sling.
- Opening and secure closing of fire doors:
First, the sling is fastened to the door knob; then, after searching a room, in case of
an imminent explosive flame or flashover, the door can be closed quickly and safely.
The same technique should be applied when cooling flue gas with nozzles!
