Ferno Type 3 Rescue Recovery Tripod Winch Block
Ferno Type 3 Rescue Recovery Tripod Winch Block
The Type 3 fall block from Ferno is a dual purpose device that arrests a fall and then hoists the casualty to safety on its built-in winch mechanism. A locking pin on the side of the casing switches it between fall arrest mode and rescue winch mode, so one unit both protects the worker and recovers them without a separate hoist. It carries 25 metres of galvanised steel wire rope and secures to Industripod or Arachnipod tripod legs using the IK winch adaptor.
A hydro seepage system drains water during use, and it is supplied with a triple action swivel karabiner that has a fall arrest indicator. It is certified to EN360:2002 and EN1496:2017 Class B. Mount it on a Arachnipod tripod. Note that with an Industripod, which has no integrated pulley, an additional pulley such as a swivel pulley is required.
