DBI 8102001 SalaLift II Confined Space Retrieval Winch

Capital Safety 8102001 SalaLift II Confined Space Retrieval Winch

The Capital Safety Salalift II Confined Space Retrieval Winch is a manually operated winch used to raise or lower personnel and materials from confined spaces or holes. Gear ratio is 6:1 with an average lifting speed of 12.75 ft/min. (no power source required). To operate, simply rotate the handle in the desired direction, to pull up or lower down.



 

The standard model 8102001 comes with 60 feet of 1/4 in. galvanized steel cable complete with the DBI "quick-mount" top-mounting bracket and a carrying bag. The bottom or base mounting bracket must be ordered separately to fit the application. This lightweight design weighs only 35 lbs.



 

A "free-wheel" mode is an operator-activated feature that allows the drum to rotate and cable to pay-out freely as the attached worker descends into the space or moves about within the space. In this mode the handle remains stationary. This "free-wheel" mode has a built-in over-speed brake with energy absorbing capacity (similar to self retracting lifelines), which provides secondary fall protection and added security. Operating the handle automatically puts you back in control. The built-in overload clutch automatically slips to prevent severe overloading or damage. This also helps prevent injury to entangled personnel while raising them back up.



 

The housing cover is made from a corrosion resistant, durable medium density polyethylene with a built-in ergonomic carrying handle. The housing material reduces weight and will not dent or corrode like other metal housings. The inner workings of the winch are also built to last, with anodized aluminum side plates, zinc plated gears and shafts, stainless steel springs and aluminum drum for superior dependability.



 

The swiveling self-locking snap hook provides a secure connection to the person or load and prevents the cable from twisting for a much smoother operation. An impact indicator enables the user to visually see if device has been impact loaded, in which case the unit will need to be sent into the manufacturer for inspection. A back up lifeline system allows the brake to activate and absorb energy if a fall occurs at the end of the lifeline travel. The SalaLift II meets or exceeds all industry regulations including OSHA and ANSI.

Protecta AB17533 Fall Protection Harness with Lanyard

Protecta AB17533 Fall Protection Harness with Shock Absorbing Lanyard

Weight and money savings in the Protecta AB17533 Fall Protection Harness with Shock Absorbing Lanyard. This single fall protection kit includes the full body harness, 6 foot shock absorbing lanyard and a heavy duty storage bag. The 5-point adjustable harness and lanyard weigh just 3.25 lbs. as a unit!


This Protecta brand AB17533 kit is from their FIRST line of economy fall protection products. With this combo they have removed the back d-ring on the harness and one of the snap hooks on the lanyard. Then the lanyard is looped through and sewn to the harness, making them one unit.

The big upside to all this is less weight, and less money (because 2 pieces of hardware are gone)!



Our customers have said for years that having a case or bag is a big deal to them; it keeps all the parts together, keeps them clean, and reduces the tangle that comes with a webbing harness. Some have used a small suitcase, others a gym or duffle bag. Protecta has provided a heavy weight nylon bag (looks like Cordura) that fits the whole assembly. The flap has a generous velcro closure, and the back has 2 nylon webbing loops with snaps. This can be carried on your belt or mounted on the forklift or bucket truck. While not waterproof, protection from the weather and sun will help keep your safety equipment investment protected.



The assembly meets all applicable standards, including OSHA and ANSI Z359.

Weight: 3.25 lbs (harness and lanyard combo only) Weight capacity: 310 lbs.

The underlying harness is equal to the Protecta AB17530, and the lanyard is equivalent to the Protecta AE57610. Minus some of the hardware!!

Euramco ECKO K1210 12-inch Confined Space Ventilation Fan

Euramco ECKO K1210 12-inch Ventilation Fan

 

The Ecko K1210 high performance 12-inch fan from Euramco is the right choice for your high volume ventilation needs. Special features include a one-piece cast aluminum impeller and rugged steel housing assuring long life and low maintenance. A unique sure-grip handle and built-in On/Off switch make set-up and operation fast and easy. Four large rubber feet assure solid footing on slippery surfaces. Blower accepts 12" ECKO-FLEX blower hose for suction or discharge.

If you need to blow a large amount of air for ventilation or extraction, solutions don’t get much better (or more portable) than those offered by EURAMCO. The ECKO-12 moves up to 2280CFM free air (via its 0.75 horsepower motor), which is almost two and a half times as much as its little brother the ECHO-8.

Enclosed in a one-piece steel frame, the ECKO-12 ventilator fan is a strong little number. With an aluminum cast impeller it is capable of handling a lot of wear and tear, so it should continue to push or pull air – as you need – wherever you work: oil rigs, shipyards, anyone painting, confined space workers (engineers needing to perform manhole entry for example) can all benefit from forced ventilation or extraction of potentially harmful gases.

Setting up the fan is a simple operation. A SureGrip handle features an integrated on/off switch, while sturdy rubber pads let the ECKO-12 portable blower get to grips with almost any surface. Should you require targeted extraction or ventilation the ECKO-12 is compatible with 12” Ecko-Flex ducting for a simple, quick and easy set up.
