Safety sets
Safety sets are essential components in dealing with incidents that may occur when abseiling during defence rope operations.
Safety rope
The safety rope is used to secure a user involved in an incident and who cannot pursue their descent via abseiling. It is provided to the crew with the required accessories for use.
- Colour: Red
Knife set
The knife set enables the hold handler to cut the abseiling rope if it becomes stuck on the ground and might endanger the safety of the aircraft. It is to be used in emergencies only.
Heavy load descender
Heavy load descender
The heavy load descender is used to control the lowering of loads that cannot be carried directly by users when abseiling due to their mass. It is handled by personnel in the hold.
- Material: Stainless steel
- Colour: Inox (light silver grey)
Transport bag
Transport bag
The transport bag helps to protect, transport and store defence rope operations equipment when it is not in use, especially to avoid the adverse effects of exposure to direct sunlight. The size of this practical bag is adapted to the contents of the set.
