Descender and ascender devices
Descender devices can be used with cableways for safe and controlled abseil descending of persons from blocked cableway vehicles.
In practice, descender devices are subject to different loads. For this reason, the devices are divided into
different classes. The class distribution depends on the descent distance and the number of persons to be lowered. The device class is important and must be observed in the selection for cableway rescue.
IMMOOS rope reverser Stopbloc 2
1.02.008
The IMMOOS rope reverser Stopbloc 2 has been specially designed for cableway rescue. It is extremely small and easy to
use. With 1.5-fold looping, the holding force is reduced to approx. 30%. The descent
speed can be individually controlled with a rope brake.
IMMOOS rope brake “Mösi”
1.20.046
The easy-to-use rope brake “Mosi”, with demi-anti-panic function, is employed in
combination with the rope reverser Stopbloc 2. With the rope brake, the descent speed can be controlled and braked at any time.
Rope: Diameter 9 mm
Load: max. 1 person
Weight: 0.2 kg
Standard: EN 341 A
Ascender device
The rope reverser and the rope brake together make up the descending equipment.
With a few additional parts, it can
be converted into an ascending device with which rescuers can be pulled up. This option is an advantageous and time-saving
variant, especially with large distances between the cableway vehicles.
Lowering device MRG 9 - 2P
175759
Very light lowering device with automatic brake, with which a constant lowering speed is achieved.
Lowering device RG 10 DA
178365
Specially designed for lowering persons from large cableway cabins. The two eyelets block the abseil descent process.
Lowering device MRG 9 - 2P lift
176287
Ideal for rescue of persons hanging in the harness. The person can be lifted with the
handwheel so the carabiner can be released and then descended together.
Lowering device UniDrive with lift function
178898
Adequate evacuation device with lift function and carriage with optional modes of driving:
- electric
- pneumatic
- manual
Rollgliss R 350 ST
AG6350000
With the Rollgliss R 350 device, persons can be both pulled up and descended.
Depending on the application area, various reduction systems with various lever loads are available for selection (can also be retrofi tted).
This device may only be used in combination with the JUMAR rope clamp or another certified brake.
Rope-stop clamp JUMAR
AG6800260B
The JUMAR rope clamp is part of the Rollgliss abseil descent device. It is used to secure the abseil rope.
There are 2 variants available:
• Rope clamp without brake assist AG6800260
• Rope clamp with brake assist
AG6800260B
