Skylotec MILAN 2.0 HUB Rescue Device with Lifting Function
Skylotec MILAN 2.0 HUB Rescue Device with Lifting Function
The standard rescue device in the industry, with the lifting function that makes an actual rescue possible. The hand wheel raises the casualty far enough to take the load off their lanyard so it can be released, then the device lowers them safely.
It runs on 9.00 mm static rope, which keeps the kit light, and lowers at up to 0.90 m/s over a maximum abseiling height of 500 m. Maximum load is 280.00 kg, that is 141.00 kg for one person or 280.00 kg for two. An integrated rope guide and brake keep operation intuitive. The device is certified to ANSI Z359.9-2021, EN 341:2011/1A and EN 1496:2017/A, and meets CSA Z259.2.3:16/1/B. Stored in a SEAL PAC the guaranteed service life extends to 15 years, and can be doubled once to 30 years through resealing.
It is optimised for accompanied rescue and requires training by a SKYLOTEC certified instructor. For a powered lift over longer distances, see the MILAN 2.0 POWER. Keep the system sealed and inspection ready in a SEAL PAC LIGHT TO GO, and browse the full rescue equipment range.

Why does a rescue device need a lifting function?
After a fall the casualty's weight is on the lanyard, so the connector cannot be released. The hand wheel lifts the casualty a short distance, the lanyard goes slack and can be unclipped, and the device then lowers them under control.
What rope does it take?
9.00 mm rope. The smaller diameter keeps the weight of the kit down, which matters when the device has to be carried up to the work position.
Is training required?
Yes. MILAN covers a wide range of rescue scenarios and Skylotec requires users to be trained on the device by a certified instructor. The rescue plan should come from a risk assessment of the work.
