CAROL material hoist for Tracpode™ tripod

The CAROL material winch is a versatile addition to the Tracpode™ tripod and supports safe lifting, lowering and rescue in areas with limited access. It is suitable for both material transport and personal rescue, thereby providing a flexible solution for work in shafts, containers and other hard-to-reach locations.

The winch has a capacity of up to 250 kg for material transport. For personal rescue, it is designed in accordance with EN 1496 and can secure or move persons weighing up to 150 kg including equipment. The winch cable is guided over the pulley at the head of the Tracpode™. This allows the winch to be integrated into an existing tripod system and used for controlled lifting and lowering operations.

The material winch can be mounted easily and without tools on the Tracpode™. This facilitates preparation at changing deployment sites and reduces setup time. For rope-assisted work, the material winch can additionally be combined with a second fall protection device in accordance with EN 360. This enables the equipment to be adapted to different requirements for access, securing and rescue.

The winch is made of robust metal and weighs approximately 15.9 kg. The available rope length is up to 20 m. In addition to personal rescue, the winch is also suitable for lifting tools, equipment and other materials up to the permissible max. load. It thus supports efficient and structured workflows at height as well as in confined or lower-lying areas.
