Rescue at Height
Rescue-at-Height equipment covers the tools needed to extract a worker after a fall and before suspension trauma develops. The category includes complete rescue kits, descent devices, tripods and davits, portable rescue winches, and suspension-trauma straps. A documented rescue plan and trained rescue capability are required before any work that relies on a fall-arrest system.

About this category
A fall arrest is the beginning, not the end. A worker suspended after a fall can develop suspension trauma within 10-30 minutes if not rescued. Complete rescue kits provide a ready-to-deploy system with a long rescue line, descent/ascent devices, and connectors; selection follows the specific work environment. Descent devices let the fallen worker or a colleague lower at a controlled rate to the ground. Tripods are set up over confined-space openings for vertical extraction and work with a manual or powered winch. Portable rescue winches are lighter and work with existing anchor points. Suspension trauma straps let the worker lift the knees during suspension to maintain circulation until the rescue team arrives. A scheduled rescue drill program with annual scenario practice is mandatory, and rescue equipment must be available on site rather than in a distant warehouse. Specifications follow ANSI Z359.4, EN 341, and EN 1496.
