Tripod for use in confined spaces
August 1st 2008 Competitively-priced, the
IKAR DB-A2 confined space
tripod is now available in
the UK. Distributed by IKAR
GB, it is constructed from
box section aluminium and
is said to offer excellent
strength to weight
comparisons.
Weighing just 19kg, the
DB-A2 accepts either two
workers or one worker and
a 250kg load-winch.
Offering rapid assembly, a
stable base and large
headroom, it accepts all
IKAR HRA devices once
fitted with the appropriate
bracket. The cable then
passes through a pulley
connected to an eye-bolt
supplied at the tripod head.
The Alko 901 load winch
can also be assembled onto
the DB-A2 in a similar
manner.
The tripod can be
supplied as a stand-alone
piece of rescue equipment or
as a package, with the
appropriate bracket set, HRA
device, pulley wheel and
connectors. IKAR GB can
also supply a rescue
harness. More articles from IKAR GB: |
