Advanced 5-piece hoist system from DBI/SALA
This Advanced 5-piece hoist system from DBI/SALA is designed for retrieval out of and entry into manholes or confined spaces. The 8518000 is a versatile platform for your confined space retrieval needs. It can be set up almost anywhere, and used over square holes, or holes with hinged doors. It is light weight and easily packs up and fits into the your truck.
Many customers prefer this method over the traditional Confined Space Retrieval Tripod, even though this is more expensive. Many of our municipal customers have found value in this 5-piece concept. If confined space entry and retrieval are daily jobs for you, this system will pay for itself in no time.
One of the largest advantages to this design is open access to both the person being retrieved and the entrance point (e.g. manhole). While tripods might leave you feeling fenced in, limiting access and flexibility, the open design of the five piece system will do just the opposite. With the pivoting mast of the 5-piece, either personnel or equipment can be swung away from the hole. Do this a couple of times, and you'll never go back to an A-Frame or Tripod.
The five piece system is constructed of lightweight materials, including high strength aluminum. The base adjusts to fit most entries and other bases, like the hitch mount for example, are available. The davit-arm pivots for easier rescue and has limited adjustments to meet clearance requirements.
