Full Description

This package is the ultimate solution for UK construction and utility teams performing work positioning in deep shafts or chambers. Unlike standard entry kits, this system includes a dedicated Abtech 30m man-riding winch, allowing operators to be mechanically raised and lowered with precision. For redundant safety, the 15m fall arrest and retrieval block acts as a secondary backup, ensuring immediate protection in the event of a primary line failure. Beyond mechanical access, this package provides a complete environmental safety shield. The MSA ALTAIR 4XR multi-gas detector provides rapid, real-time monitoring of LEL, O2, CO, and H2S levels, while the Dräger CF10 Saver provides 10 minutes of breathable air for emergency egress. Mounted on the high-stability Abtech TO3 tripod and paired with the RGH5 rescue harness, this setup offers the highest level of protection for personnel working at depth in hazardous environments.

FAQs

Can I hire this man-riding package from PQS Survey?

Yes, PQS Survey provides this full man-riding and rescue package for hire. All equipment is fully serviced, calibrated, and ready for immediate deployment on your project.

How do I know if I need a man-riding winch or just a retrieval block?

A man-riding winch is required to mechanically lower or raise a worker during normal operations, such as where no ladder exists. A retrieval block is for fall protection and emergency rescue only; it should not support a worker’s weight normally.

What is the difference between the 30m winch and the 15m block?

The 30m winch is designed for controlled “man-riding” movement. In contrast, the 15m block acts as a fall arrestor that stops a fall and provides a manual winch for emergency retrieval only.

Is this kit compliant with UK Confined Space Regulations?

Absolutely. All components meet the Confined Spaces Regulations 1997, LOLER, and WAHR standards, ensuring full compliance on any UK industrial or construction site.

What gases does the MSA ALTAIR 4XR detect?

The unit is configured to monitor four key gases: Oxygen (O2), Combustibles (LEL), Carbon Monoxide (CO), and Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S).

How long does the Dräger CF10 air supply last?

The CF10 Saver provides 10 minutes of constant-flow breathing air. It is designed to give the user sufficient time to safely exit a hazardous atmosphere during an emergency.

Can the escape hood be used with facial hair?

Yes, the Dräger CF10 hood is designed to be versatile. It can be used effectively by those with spectacles or facial hair, unlike standard face-mask style escape sets.

How often does the 30m winch need to be inspected?

Under LOLER regulations, all lifting and safety equipment in this kit must undergo a formal thorough examination by a competent person every 6 months.

Is the tripod stable on uneven site ground?

The Abtech TO3 tripod features independently adjustable legs with safety chains. This allows it to be levelled and secured on irregular or sloped surfaces typical of construction sites.
