2.0 Description
The FallTech
UniDrive Rescue and Descent Device is a multi-functional device that may be used as
®
a rescue device, descent control device, and/or work positioning device. The UniDrive is suitable for
self- or assisted rescue, controlled descent, and/or vertical work lifting/positioning applications. The
UniDrive is designed for overhead anchorage attachment or personal sternal/frontal attachment for
self- or assisted rescue operations.
The UniDrive utilizes a centrifugal force brake mechanism to ensure constant descent velocity during
descent or rescue. The brake mechanism is separate from the rope pulley mechanism to prevent
moisture or debris from the rope affecting descent control.
When used in rescue or work positioning applications, there are three lifting modes: a manually
operated handwheel, a removeable, telescoping ratchet handle, and a drill bit adapter for powered
use. The UniDrive features a torque limiter to prevent the overloading of the device during lifting
operations.
This product is not suitable for applications with leading edge exposures where the lifeline of this
device may come in contact with an edge during use. If such exposure is a required for the application
at hand, an edge protection device must be used to ensure the rope is not damaged during use.
