EXO - Personal Escape System for firefighters - Petzl

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 ส.ค. 2024
- Developed with the FDNY in 2005, in response to the tragic events of "Black Sunday," the Petzl EXO is the most tested, most carried, and most proven personal escape system on the market.
Comprised of an updated anchor hook with hitching slot, a 7.5mm heat and cut resistant Technora rope, an EXO braking-assisted descender, a locking connector with captive bar, and a Nomex carrying bag that attaches to a firefighter's harness, the EXO offers a rapid means of escape from a burning structure when traditional exits are blocked.
Today, over 40,000 firefighters from 300 different fire departments worldwide carry the system. For more information, visit petzl.com/EXO or email us at exo@petzl.com.

Wonderful. I am so very glad, that a Company took the interest of men and women who risk their lives for all of us, ernest enough that they worked with them and came up with livesaving solutions. THANKS to all who serve and help others.
They're $400 a pop. Petzl aren't a charity.
I see some people being negative towards the product, heres the thing the average adult male weighs 200 pounds, the gear fire fighters carry weighs an addition 45-75 pounds, a grigri is an amazing tool but its capability is limited to the size rope it can handle, the bigger the rope, they less you can carry before it becomes too cumbersome, there are also people saying that using a carabiner as your anchor is more cost effective, which it is, BUT what if theres nothing solid for you to tie off to? the hook is shown to be able to connect to a door jam, a corner, hell ive even see it work connected to a window sill and hold when its punched into the dry wall, can carabiners do any of that? the video also brings up a good point, this is designed to be as simple as humanly possible, this is designed to be used when fear has taken over and all your training is deduced down to your first day at the academy, in a right state of mind under the most casual of conditions I've seen experienced climbers forget to properly secure their carabiner, i cant imagine just how much is forgotten when you're facing a fiery death, so yes this product is expensive, no i am not a fire fighter, but even i can appreciate this product, and quite frankly can see its application being used towards those who live in taller apartment buildings or even two story houses as shown in the video. yes its expensive, but 150-400 an exo is a drop in the bucket compared to 7000-10000 for a funeral, you do the math...
all over Drywall ihouses are so failed country style - Bricks and Concrete FTW ;-)
You would hope that more than just 40,000 firefighters are using this system.
Far cheaper for them to use webbing and a tool to sling themselves out. Someone has a tool and both should have some length of webbing ("Different strokes"), you may not be able to rappel all cool like but your ass won't cooked
@@Goldenfightinglink that seems far more inconvenient... especially as this is only done in a life threatening situation
@@bensblues I know plenty of firemen that choose and use webbing way more often
And make sure that you sell something that costs $50 to make for such an exorbitant price that you really stick it to those firefighters
Just the thing I should get in case of a fire in my building. I live on the ground floor!
Lástima que casi no se conozca y en la expofire en México ni hablan del dispositivo , yo lo conozco pero nunca lo he utilizado con EPP , solo lo he visto en el catálogo qué pena que la empresa no se de a la tarea de dar a conocer y entrenar a bomberos en México solo en USA
Отличная вещь. Будем пробовать на занятиях.
Esas grandes persona necesitan grandes herramientas 🧰👈👌
i love it
เยี่ยมๆๆนะจ๊ะ
Is there a type of coating that could be applied to the rope for added heat resistance without affecting traction?
Just trying to think of additional ways to bolster what is a good system
You can't insulate with a thin coating, because insulation value is proportional to the thickness of the material and a coating is of thickness 0 for the purpose at hand. You could possibly use a reflective material to reflect as much infrared as possible, for example by painting the rope with titanium oxide, but this would do nothing against an open flame or simply hot air / convection. There's flame retardants, but those only protect against the material self-sustaining a fire, and if you heat a rope enough for it to start burning itself, it's already dropping you to the ground anyway.
The only thing that could possibly work would be to have a material coating that changes phase. For example, aviation black boxes have some water in them, while it's boiling up it keeps the temperature of the box at 100⁰C. There's several problems though. First, it's not clear what material could have the desirable property without imparting negative ones. Second, the amount of protection would be proportional to the mass of that material, and thus unlikely to amount to much. Third, a rope can break at any point, and when heat affects just 1% of the length, the remaining 99% of the coating does absolutely nothing.
The only solution is to use rope materials that are certified to resist to heat in the first place. There's many technical polymers such as polyimides that can withstand 100s of degrees, though they might not all be appropriate for making rope. But I'm sure firefighters use materials that are certified for some amount of heat resistance.
edit: the Petzl rope is made from aramid. Melting point is >500⁰C
Can I as a civilian order one to attach to my climbing harness?
Sure, if you've got $460 to burn
or...If you're with a woman and her husband comes home
O shut the fuck up
@@jakethegreat4466 Come on man, he is clearly joking. Relax.
Daniel L hes only mad cause it happened to him dude slipped out the window
@@aninjawaffle98 I think so too! lmao
All firefighters in any city with building over 4 stories should be mandatory,
It seems a restyling of the grillon....
Deberian de dar becas para entrenamiento en su centro y asi poder conocer el uso de si equipo
Soooo... lead climbing solo with this is possible? 🤔
Where to buy this escape gear ?
Won’t the rope melt in the heat?
The rope has a higher heat resistance temperature. It only has to withstand slightly more heat than a fully suited firefighter can handle and last long enough for the firefighter to get out and down.
Who ever is a critic of it needs to come up with a better solution. If you have none then you know the value of your opinion
The biggest problem about rope access or professional applications like this is that you cant discuss about it without layman talking bullshit, thinking they are the professionals.
It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.
It is unfortunate that the internet provides anonymity to oxygen pirates.
only if grenwell had this
yeah. that anchor point would have to be right next to the exit they were taking. fire would definitely melt that rope very fast
Shawn Mccoy that rope can take 1000 kg or an elephant
And its kevlar infused so it won’t melt.
La capacidad de carga es solo para el bombero o podría salir con alguna víctima en brazos?
para salir con una victima en brazos ya necesita el ID L o el ID S, que son para rescate, esos cuestan doscientos cuarenta euros, son mucho mejores y eficientes que el que se esta hablando aqui, pero entendamos...., para usar un aparato como estos hay que tener practica y experiencia, y sobre todo formacion, los anclajes son muy importantes, arnes y anclaje en punto firme de sujecion , luego el ID S, es una maravilla de descensor para utilizarlo con una gran confianza y tranquilidad, si,
is the 7.5 rope fire proof ?
The Technora sheath has a very high melting temperature. It will eventually burn through but hopefully you've escaped by then
how do you retrieve it back tho?
+Jeffrey Cook you might not, but who cares if it saved your life
With a broom and dustpan. You lived. To save life ALL equipment is expendable, buildings are expendable, apparatus is expendable. In other news, jet fighters have ejection seats because riding it in accomplishes less than nothing.

It's a grigri :/
It's based of the same mechanism as a grigri. If you look on petzls webpage you will see that the majority of their devices look like big or small funny shaped grigris. The I'D, Rig , grillon, grigri and exo all work and are designed on the same premise. It's not a bad thing.
I feel like when firefighters get something like that they look for any excuse to use it even if they don't have to and have other safer options
You have no idea what you are talking about. Not everyone are like you. Some are, but these are professionals.

yeah but you cant get the rope back so kinda pointless
Rope? Who gives a fuck about 50 feet of rope?
cant get your life back either
