The Petzl EXO Personal Escape System provides firefighters with a fast, reliable means of egress from a burning multi-story structure. A firefighter equipped with the system can quickly anchor the heat-resistant rope with the hook or carabiner anchoring device and move rapidly towards the exit point. The self-braking EXO device helps prevent the firefighter from falling or losing control of the rope, allowing him to concentrate on getting out of the building. Once outside, he can use the EXO to descend to a lower level. Trained personnel can execute the entire exit sequence in as little as 10 seconds. In a last-resort scenario, the EXO's advantages of speed, adaptability and self-braking function offer the best possible means of escape. See more on [http://www.petzl.com/exo]
