Description
The Derope™ descender is a controlled-speed evacuation device. It is designed to evacuate either
one person (up to 150 kg) for a height of up to 400 meters or 2 persons (up to 225 kg) for a height of
up to 200 meters. The system allows for sequencing several consecutive round-trip descents, thus
making it possible to descend groups of persons, while monitoring the maximum number of
consecutive descents authorized.
The Derope™ descender is designed for use on sites located at heights which could require
emergency evacuation, such as wind turbines, aerial cable cars, derricks, etc.
The Derope™ descenders are also intended for use by rescuers in hazardous environments, in
particular the Derope™ UP A – UP B – UP K – UP R versions which are equipped with a winch for
rescue by upward evacuation.
Derope™ UP A is a descender equipped with a rescue winch enabling upward and downward
evacuation.
