Latchways Personal Rescue Device (PRD) with 3M Elavation Harness
PRD-7510Q
The Latchways Personal Rescue Device™ (PRD)™ is worn with a 3M™ Elavation™ Full Body Harness, and activation is achieved by simply pulling the release cord, allowing for self rescue. The lightweight, unobtrusive rescue device is contained in a small "backpack" that integrates rescue capabilities into your personal fall arrest equipment. In the event of a fall, the Elavation harness suspends the user and allows the Latchways PRD to gently lower him or her to the ground, unassisted, in a controlled descent. If the user is unable to self rescue, the device may be activated by another person. The PRD features 65 feet of rope, which is released at a controlled rate through an integral braking mechanism.
Redefine Rescue with 3M and Latchways, Personal Rescue Device (PRD)
The PRD was designed by Latchways to redefine rescue plans and allow self-rescue by any worker at height. Traditional rescue plans are often complicated, dangerous or costly - bringing a standby rescue team or in-house rescue team up to the victim and to a potentially precarious situation.
3M Fall Protection System: Look Down and Pull
Imagine a rescue plan for every worker at height that is as simple as, "Look down and pull". Combined with the 3M Elavation harness, the Latchways PRD allows self rescue and brings the victim down to safety.
Lightweight, Reliable, Integrated Fall Protection System
The PRD solution works seamlessly with the 3M Elavation harness, fitting neatly inside a "backpack" ensuring workers are protected, not inhibited by their fall protection equipment. This lightweight and reliable solution is proven to withstand the rigors of the harshest working environments.
