RR-406 RS2 Pull-Through Rescue Lifting System
Rescue & Evacuation Systems (EN 341)

The PGTEC RR-406 RS2 is a compact pull-through rescue lifting system that lets a team raise a stranded or injured worker on a rope using a mechanical advantage of roughly 3:1, certified around EN 566 anchoring and EN 795 anchor-device practice. The kit is supplied as a flat-lay set: two silver aluminium swing-side pulley blocks, a navy Prusik-mound progress loop, a large stainless triangular anchor ring and a locking stainless carabiner, so that it can be packed into a small rescue rucksack and deployed in minutes. To set up, the rescuer ties the Prusik loop to the anchor rope, clips the pulley blocks into the system, and pulls the free end; the progress-capture feature holds the load on each pull so the casualty can be raised gradually without the system slipping back. The RS2 is the standard tool for lifting a suspended worker out of a harness suspension-trauma situation, for raising a casualty over a parapet or beam edge, and for assisting a tired or injured rope-access technician back to an anchor point. It is designed for use on 10-13 mm kernmantle ropes and supports a maximum system load of 140 kg per line. PGTEC supplies the RS2 in a navy nylons stuff sack with a setup diagram, an inspection log and a five-year guarantee; the pulleys use sealed stainless bearings that spin smoothly under light load, and all connectors are 22 kN rated. The system is intended for rescue-trained rope-access teams, fire brigades, industrial safety officers and tower-climbing operators who need a proven, lightweight haul system rather than a powered winch.
