Description

IMCA requered Block & tackle system for Wet Bell. Comes standard with 8meter. All metal is SS 316. It facilitates the retrieval of a diver into the diving bell. Featuring a 6:1 advantage pulley system, it offers an extended length of 6 meters, estimated from the top of the bell's interior through the trunking to the stage base. Custom lengths are available upon request to suit specific system requirements. For safe operation, ensure attachment to a certified lifting point capable of supporting at least 900kg. This provides a generous safety margin, accommodating a fully dressed diver's estimated weight of 170kg, and meets load testing standards for certain diver recovery harnesses. Equipped with a cam cleat on the top pulley, the system allows the rope to be securely locked off during recovery, enabling single-handed operation. The cleat's angle is adjustable via a ratcheted locking pin system, ensuring optimal positioning to match the operator's angle of use within the bell. Additionally, the bottom pulley features a stainless steel carabiner for easy clipping onto the diver's harness lifting/recovery point, facilitating efficient retrieval operations.

Enhanced Retrieval Efficiency: The Diver Recovery Block and Tackle employs a 6:1 advantage pulley system, enabling effortless retrieval of divers into the diving bell. With an extended length of 6 meters, it offers ample reach from the top of the bell's interior to the stage base, ensuring smooth and efficient operations.

Safety-Centric Design: Prioritising safety, the system requires attachment to a certified lifting point capable of withstanding at least 900kg. This robust design accommodates the estimated weight of a fully dressed diver (170kg) with a significant safety margin, meeting stringent load testing standards for specialized diver recovery harnesses.

User-Friendly Operation: Equipped with a cam cleat on the top pulley, the system allows for secure locking off of the rope during recovery, facilitating single-handed operation. The adjustable angle of the cleat, controlled by a ratcheted locking pin system, ensures optimal positioning to align with the operator's angle of use within the bell, enhancing ease of use and efficiency. Additionally, the stainless steel carabiner on the bottom pulley enables swift and hassle-free clipping onto the diver's harness lifting/recovery point, further streamlining retrieval operations.
