LEZARD L01
Helivac lanyard with securing of the
drop off/recovery phases
NEW
2015
If the helicopter needs to suddenly leave
its stationary position, the adjustable arm
ejects instantly to free the victim, rescuer
and helicopter.
The length of the adjustable arm adjusts
quickly and easily thanks to the ADJUST
rope clamp, which releases with a
simple turn and handles easily due to its
ergonomic shape.

victim, rescuer and the helicopter

thanks to their color coding
• Very quick and precise length adjustment of the
adjustable arm thanks to the ergonomic shape of the
ADJUST rope clamp

The rubber ring on the adjustable

facilitating clipping.
(1) The LEZARD helivac lanyard does not have an
energy absorber. It should thus only be used if the fall
factor is less than 1 (used below the anchor point).
BECAUSE OF THE SPECIFICITY OF THE LEZARD
HELIVAC LANYARD, SPECIFIC TRAINING IS
MANDATORY.
