CMC Levr Bt Escape System

CMC Levr Bt Escape System

The CMC Levr Bt Escape System (With Tether) allows firefighters to lower a victim before bailing out themselves.

While other systems can be modified to lower a victim, the LEVR BT Escape System is purpose-built for the job, with each element specifically designed and certified for efficient execution of the Byrne Technique.

Expanding on the capabilities of our compact, reliable, and intuitive LEVR Escape System, the full LEVR BT Escape System includes a BT deployment bag for accessing both ends of the escape line, a captive eye carabiner for connecting to the victim, a rapid deployment tether, and the Flash.G™ for superior lowering and anchoring.

The Flash.G is classified to NFPA standards as an Emergency Escape Anchor and Escape Descent Control Device (DCD). With 3 quick passes through the gate, the Flash.G functions as an emergency escape DCD for lowering a victim. Once the line is unweighted and the wraps cleared, the Flash.G transitions to being used as an anchor for personal escape. The user can then bailout using CMC’s patented LEVR descender for rapid egress, and safe, controlled descent.

Components:

• Flash.G Escape Anchor classified to NFPA standards as Emergency Escape Anchor and Escape Descent Control Device
• LEVR Descender reeved with 15.2 m (50 ft) of 11 mm Fire Escape Web™ (UL Classified to NFPA 1983 – FR Escape Web)
• BT Deployment Bag for quick access to both ends of the system and easy integration with turnout gear
• Reflective Deployment Tether for rapid extraction of the system, removable if not desired
• Personal tether and auto-locking ProTech™ carabiner for remaining attached to the system
• Auto-locking captive eye carabiner sewn to the tail end for connecting to the victim
