The self-locking descender Spark by Skylotec is specially designed for use in tree care, high-angle rescue, and industrial applications. It combines a compact design with excellent handling and high durability. The movement radius of the automatically closing lever is particularly small, making work with the device fast, precise, comfortable, and safe. The lever features a loop that is extremely helpful in rescue situations: for example, a prusik cord can be attached there to lower an injured person, or the rescuer can operate the Sirius simultaneously as a second device. It is certified for rescue use with loads up to 250 kg.
Additionally, the device can remain connected to the harness via a carabiner during the simple, intuitive rope installation. Thanks to the smooth rope path, there is less twisting and reduced wear. The ergonomic design and the lever, which is very precise to operate, ensure extremely comfortable handling. The device is made 100% from metal—without wear-prone plastic parts—which significantly increases its service life. For smooth, precise, and rapid descent without interruptions, the Spark does not have an anti-panic function—therefore, it is only suitable for experienced users.
