The SKYLOTEC DEUS 3700 is a controlled descent and rescue device designed for emergency escape, self-rescue, and assisted rescue during work at height. Built for reliability and ease of use, it enables controlled evacuation from structures up to 590 ft while helping employers meet OSHA prompt rescue requirements and reduce the risk of suspension trauma. The device operates in both directions, allowing multiple users to descend sequentially with a single device without re-rigging. Equipped with quadruple-redundant braking, automatic speed-limiting technology, hands-free descent, and a precise speed control dial, it provides safe and controlled evacuation for a wide range of rescue applications.
