Handles a much wider range of rope diameters than other similar device If the release handle is pulled too hard, the unit locks The unit only lowers if the handle is kept in a mid-range position The unit is approximately the same size as a PDA. Details: The Lory has two subtypes this subtype, the Anthron Lory Safe, features unimpeded movement of the cam, making it suitable for industrial applications. By pulling the handle, the cam gradually releases the rope. If the handle is pulled down to its terminal position, the double-stop function is triggered, which blocks the rope again. To resume descending, return the handle to closed position and restart the process.
FEATURES
Handles a much wider range of rope diameters than other similar device from 9mm - 11.4mm thereby providing versatility allowing one to use the right rope for the job
If the release handle is pulled too hard the unit locks making it almost impossible to drop someone while lowering them
The unit only lowers if the handle is kept in a mid-range position, which also makes abseiling much safer
If the handle is pulled down to its terminal position, the double-stop function is triggered, which blocks the rope again
To resume descending, return the handle to closed position and restart the process
The unit can be preloaded & then locked with a maillon which makes it very suitable for inclusion in emergency evacuation kits especially when the user is not that familiar with abseiling
For the industrial/ rescue operative, it's certainly easier to use & more secure than a many popular alternatives out there and lighter & more compact
The unit is approximately the same size as a PDA (large cell phone) and is made largely of steel (handle included) which serves to enhance its durability
