heightec’s RescuePack ROTOR MaxLift WTG Rescue System has been configured to meet the demanding requirements of the renewables sector.

The system is fully rated for 2 person descent and supplied in a robust, sealed protective barrel for ease of storage and transportation.

At the core of the wind turbine rescue system is the ROTOR MaxLift powered rescue and evacuation descender, an intuitive 2 person escape / self-evacuation device with automatic descent speed control. It can be used in any orientation and has no external moving parts, reducing entanglement risks and is fully bi-directional meaning that repeated descents can be carried out in quick succession. The maximum descent height is 4500m for 140kg, 500m for 200kg or 220m for 250kg. The device can swap from lift to lower (and vice versa) at any point whilst under load. Nominal Rated load 140kg, Maximum lift load as part of conformity assessment 300kg.

The ROTOR MaxLift is power assisted making it optimised for both rescue and lifting applications, including ‘Rescue Up’.

For more complex rescues, the Rotor MaxLift can lift a casualty with ease, using either the ratchet handle supplied or the MaxLift PowerPack, supplied separately. With the integral locking mechanism engaged, progress capture is fully automatic and the load is held if the driving mechanism is released.

High rated load with long descent distance:

Load           Max. descent distance           Descent speed
140 kg                4500 m                                   0.7 m/s
200 kg                500 m                                     1.0 m/s
250 kg                220 m                                     1.7 m/s

Included within the kit is an edge protector constructed of durable stainless steel for corrosion resistance for exposed locations.
