Modular design keeps important things in view. When space permits, lift rails can extend to the ground level for even greater ease during entry and exit. Finally, the side egress point on the turntable makes it easy to exit safely from the lift to the ground in any position. Ergonomic handles close the gap to the cage, greatly increasing safety when moving from the cage to the lift. The spacious lift has enough space for up to three people. The new rescue lift's outstanding characteristics give it a 50% higher rescue rate. Nevertheless, Rosenbauer does offer active hydraulic vibration damping as an option. This is particularly beneficial if the motor is shut down when rescuing a person from a window, for example. Rosenbauer aerial ladders are highly stable and often do not require supplemental damping. Thanks to the large rung gap, the ladder set can be climbed safely even when the rungs are directly over each other.Ĭomfort option: active hydraulic vibration damping The ladder set is characterized by its high step-through width and optimized grip. Up to 15 persons can descend at once, depending on the ladder type. Ladders can even be used as a bridge to rescue large numbers of people. Depending on size, the ladders can move up to 4,000 kg at an elevation angle of 60°. The exceptional stability of the ladder set makes it possible to lift, swivel, and lower loads. The results: Absolute robustness and long-term dependability! The hermetically sealed welded joint reliably protects the inside of the ladder set against corrosion.

This increases torsional stiffness of the entire ladder set.Įach ladder set is fabricated with high-strength, fine-grained steel and powder coating. This patented design distributes forces evenly across the top and bottom belts.

At the same time, the middle of the cage is kept free for safe entry and exit.

As a result, the operator at the main control panel has the firefighter in the basket in full view at all times. The control panel is positioned on the left side. The patient is easily accessible for both firefighters in the cage and can be treated and even given artificial respiration at any time. This increases stability and prevents the cage from tipping sideways. The stretcher is attached in the center of the cage floor. This creates three entry points on the front side of the cage. For unimpeded entry, the cage control panel can be folded to the side.

The ladder set is accessed comfortably and safely via the rear entry point. Once on the ground, the person can be safely pushed out of the rescue cage without leaving the wheelchair.Įmergency crews can access the cage from any side, as the situation demands. A special attachment in the cage floor makes it easy to accommodate, anchor, and securely transport a wheelchair. The accommodation of wheelchairs in aerial ladder rescue cages is a new feature. We went from top to bottom with a fine-toothed comb, adapted each function to the needs of rescue operations, and integrated everything into the aerial ladder system better than ever before. As if that were not enough, we have also improved all other major functions. The HR-500 MF rescue cage has enough room for up to five people and now - for the first time - it can even accommodate a wheelchair with the aerial ladder. By continuously improving over many years, Rosenbauer has succeeded in executing a completely new functional concept for the rescue cage. The rescue cage is the front line for fire fighters.
