The I’D S descender is designed to meet the needs of experienced rope access technicians. Featuring an ergonomic handle that provides comfortable descent control, this easy-to-use descender makes your workday easier. The anti-panic function automatically stops the descent if you pull too hard on the handle. The anti-error catch helps reduce the risk of an accident due to incorrect installation of the device on the rope. The AUTO-LOCK function allows users to easily position themselves at a workstation without manual operation. The I’D S is compatible with 10 to 11.5 mm ropes. The descender has a safety gate on the moving side plate that allows the user to easily install the rope while the device remains connected to the harness. The ergonomic handle allows the user to unblock the rope and comfortably control the descent. The anti-panic function automatically stops the descent if the user pulls too hard on the handle. The AUTO-LOCK system allows users to easily position themselves at a workstation without having to manipulate the handle or tie off the device: as soon as the user releases the handle, the rope is automatically blocked in the device.
• Self-braking descender designed for work at height and rope access work
• Easy to use:
- Safety gate on the moving side plate allows the rope to be installed easily while the device remains connected to the harness
- Markings and rope guide make it easy to install the rope
- Anti-error catch helps reduce the risk of an accident due to incorrect installation of the device on the rope
- Ergonomic handle allows the rope to be released and enables comfortable control of the descent
- Two possible descent modes: on the side plate or in the V-shaped friction channel- Anti-panic function automatically stops the descent if the user pulls too hard on the handle
- Allows smooth movement along inclined or horizontal terrain
- The AUTO-LOCK system allows users to easily position themselves at a workstation without having to manipulate the handle or tie off the device: as soon as the user releases the handle, the rope is automatically blocked in the device; the automatic return system on the handle limits the risk of the device getting accidentally snagged
- Handle automatically switches to storage position when the rope is removed from the device, reducing the risk of accidental snagging when the descender is carried on the harness
• Versatile:
- Once locked, the rope can be taken up without having to manipulate the handle, for making a reversible haul system or for easy short ascents
- Cam can be manipulated to feed out slack easily or belay a lead climber using climbing techniques
- Moving side plate locks with a screw, allowing the I’D S descender to be integrated into rescue kits
- An auxiliary brake, open or closed, may be added to improve descent control depending on the weight and rope diameter
