The RescuePack ROTOR TC Tower Crane Rescue System is designed for vertical rescues of a fallen person or casualty at high elevation. 
It enables the recovery of a casualty, who is unable to help themselves, from a tower crane cab, jib or ladder by lifting or lowering. The RescuePack ROTOR TC is complemented by the CHRYSALIS rescue stretcher (available separately).
At the core of the evacuation system is the ROTOR rescue and evacuation descender, an intuitive device which allows self-evacuation automatically limited maximum descent speed or controlled lowering or raising of a casualty. The ROTOR can control rope speed in either direction, meaning that repeated descents can be carried out in quick succession.
High rated load with long descent distance:
Load Max. descent distance Descent speed
140 kg 4500 m 0.7 m/s
200 kg 500 m 1.0 m/s
250 kg 220 m 1.7 m/s
The ROTOR can also lift in either direction using the ratchet handle supplied. This enables multiple evacuees to use alternate rope ends. With the locking mechanism engaged the load is held if the handle is released.
The ROTOR can change from lift to lower (and vice versa) at any point whilst under load.
The RescuePack ROTOR TC Tower Crane Rescue System contains the Xtendr compact locking extendable rescue reach pole with large attachment hook. The telescopic pole extends for 3.7 m to reach a casualty on an extended energy absorbing lanyard. The modified scaffold hook features a smooth modified gate profile to prevent snagging and ensures easy attachment to the casualty – essential in cases of suspected suspension intolerance when speed is vital. This method of casualty attachment does not rely on being able to clip a specific attachment ring on the casualty. High strength, heavy duty design is rigid when fully extended, with sturdy locking mechanism and unique quick release bracket. Non-conductive.
The compact RescuePack ROTOR TC Tower Crane Rescue System comes complete with a durable 50L KARI transport bag (WLL 18 kg).
