MightEvac Retrieval SRL with Tripod Bracket
The MightEvac SRL-R pairs a MightyLite-series self-retracting lifeline with an integrated retrieval winch: fall arrest during the entry, and a 4:1 mechanical advantage crank when the entrant has to come out. This package includes the tripod mounting bracket and pulley with carabiner, ready to mount on the tripod or davit you already own.
Rated to 310 lb and meeting OSHA requirements with ANSI certification. For crews without a tripod, the complete kit with the 7 ft tripod is also stocked.

Who Needs This Product
This is the MightEvac for programs that already own tripods and davits: the SRL-R, bracket, and pulley bolt onto existing structure, adding compliant retrieval to every entry point without buying legs you have twice over. One attendant works the crank; the 4:1 advantage does the lifting.
Features
Integrated Retrieval Winch
The SRL-R mechanism converts from fall arrest to retrieval with a quick-activating engagement.
4:1 Mechanical Advantage
The crank handle gives one attendant the leverage to raise an unconscious entrant.
Bracket and Pulley Included
Mounts to Miller tripods and compatible davits, with the pulley and carabiner routing the cable.
Corrosion-Resistant Housing
Stainless steel and aluminum construction lives above manholes and vaults for years.
Heavy-Duty Carry Handle
Moves the unit between entry points and doubles as the rescue grip.
UV-Resistant Labeling
Scratch-resistant graphics keep ratings and inspection data legible.
