Field of application

Emergency personal descent system 

including a rope with sewn terminations 

(7.5 mm diameter).

This system was developed for the 

emergency self-evacuation of a trained 

individual in a critical situation, when there 

are no other means of escape.

Only persons who have successfully 

completed this «evacuation techniques» 

training and who have been authorized by 

their company can use this equipment. 

The training provided by an authorized 

training organization must take into 

account your specific work environment 

(anchors, obstacles, etc.). It must define 

how to check, prepare and use the EXO in 

an emergency situation. 

We recommend that you perform a practice 

descent once a year, using an EXO system 

that is reserved for training. During this 

practice, you must be backed up by a 

separate belay system.
