A vertical rescue system consists of six
interdependent parts: 1) anchorage, 2) anchorage
connector, 3) rope, 4) controlled descent device,
5) connectors, and 6) harness. To conduct a rescue
after a fall, an additional part – a rescue transfer unit
– is also required. The system is only as strong as the
weakest part in the system. It is the responsibility of
the user to make sure he or she understands all of
the parts in the system and how to use those parts.
In this manual, the term "controlled descent device"
is used to refer to a piece of hardware, like one of
the devices in the DEUS 3000 Series, that is used to
control vertical descent during an escape or rescue. A
"controlled descent device" is part of a "vertical rescue
system. " The term "vertical rescue system" is used to
describe the system that includes all of the parts
listed in the previous paragraph.
L
WARNING: DEUS Rescue and 3M have
carefully selected each component of our escape
and rescue kits to work in conjunction with DEUS
descent devices for optimal efficiency and safety.
Substituting any of these components may result
in injury or death.
Anchorage – The anchorage needs to be
solid, unmovable, unyielding, and unbreakable.
Professionals who work at height usually rely on
pre-planned anchorages rated to support specific
maximum loads, depending on the standard
followed, such as ANSI, CSA or EN. (Refer to the
appropriate standards for details.) Selection of an
appropriate anchorage is critical to performing a safe
escape or rescue descent and requires considerable
training.
Anchorage connector – The anchorage connector
connects the vertical rescue system to the
anchorage. Always select an appropriate anchorage
connector.
DEUS-approved ropes – DEUS 3000 Series
controlled descent devices are designed for use
ONLY with DEUS-approved ropes. Use of any other
ropes may result in injury or death. Refer to the
device's back plate for more information.
