helmets
DUON™
European Standards for helmets: EN 397 & EN 12492
Key differences:
EN 397 - Industrial • •Weak chinstrap - will release should the helmet/chinstrap get caught in machinery etc.Small vents - prevents contact with small items - sparks, paint.
EN 12492 - Climbing • • • •Strong chinstrap - helmet fi rmly fi xed in the event of a fall.Large vents - increased airfl ow and cooling.
The fi rst helmet that fully conforms to European Standard requirements for both industrial and climbing situations
The DUON is the only helmet that has fully integrated adjustment, no extra parts or accessories required.
Total compliance for complex environments with changing hazards.
Situations with the risk of a fall require a strong chin strap - EN 12492.Industrial and confi ned areas require an easily releasable strap - EN 397.The DUON can change from one to the other at the twist of a button.
• Dual certifi cation• Variable buckle release force• Adjustable ventilation system• 10-year lifespan due to high level of UV resistance• Contoured for unhindered upward vision• Advanced cradle design for optimum comfort• Seven points of adjustment for the perfect fi t• Compatible with a full range of standard accessories• Improved durable headband height adjustment, no tools required• Full range of colours and bespoke marking options available• Replaceable sweat band and pads

Using the Tornado
One-way sealed bearing allows smooth lifting but gives friction for controlled lowering.
Functions as a pulley when lifting and if the rope is released the TORNADO will lock.
Operation is simple - pull the tail end of the rope to lift, raise the body of the device to lower.

TORNADO or TWISTER system
This system allows current work practices to be carried out in the same way, but has the added safety feature of auto locking if accidentally released.
Locking function reduces risk of dropped objects when hand hauling.
Operation of this device is simple - pull the rope to lift, tilt the device body to lower.
TORNADO and TWISTER can also be used in compound pulley systems to increase mechanical advantage and use with higher loads.

Available in TOWERPACK™ rescue system see p.39
DuoBrake™
A long standing problem with descenders has been the ability to create variable friction for different descent conditions, but to also provide additional safety in the event of misuse.
Our patented DuoBrake™ system has a unique upper bobbin that increases the braking force provided by the user.
POWERLOCK™ - D321
Tower rescue & evacuation descender
The most effective and controllable double action rescue descender on the market.
Patented secondary braking mechanism of the POWERLOCK increases the force applied by the operator and provides a damping effect when the braking cam is released. This allows 2 person loading without requiring extra karabiners.
Fine descent control with minimal “GO” position for maximum safety. The tail rope can be pulled back through the device if needed, allowing the device to move back-up an unloaded rope.
The POWERLOCK is intuitive to use for both descending and lowering. The long handle allows fi ne control of rope friction during descent.
Lightweight and scratch resistant anodised aluminium construction.
