D2 Personal Escape Descender
D2 Personal Escape Descender
The D2TM Escape Descender is an innovative ‘double-stop’ Descender. The ‘double-stop’ function means that the D2TM has a sweet spot in which the descent speed can easily be controlled. Either side of the sweet spot, there is an auto-lock function.
When the user lets go of the handle the device automatically stops and when the user pulls the handle too hard the device
automatically stops, (often referred to as a ‘panic-stop’).
Đặc Tính Nổi Bật
The handle-operated cam means that in a panic situation, the Descender would actually stop the descent, (rather than just slow down). The D2TM can be controlled by pushing in the cam (ideally using the thumb), which allows the user to smoothly feed the rope through the device, without the use of the handle. The cam feed feature is particularly useful in bail-out operations. It is also easy to back-feed the rope through the D2TM and therefore it can be used for smooth ascending or for emergency hauling, (when used as part of a 2:1 ‘Z-rig’).
