The MPD’s high-efficiency pulley, with an integral rope-grab mechanism, means itcan be used as a lowering device on the main line and belay line systems and be quickly changedover to a raising system without switching out or replacing hardware. The combination of essentialfeatures into a single device simplifies on-scene rigging, expediting the rescue. The revolutionaryMPD increases user safety with:• Reduced Weight• Fewer Componentswww.cmcrescue.com• Faster Rigging• Quicker Changeovers• Simplified Training• Lower RiskNEW!13 mm version*11 mm version*A variable-friction descentcontrol device for rescuesystems and rappelsIncorporates a high-efficiencypulley with an integral ropelockingmechanism (ratchet)for a haul systemThe built-in becket allowscleaner rigging and moreefficient pulley systemsThe MPD allows main line andbelay line rigging to be mirrorimages of one anotherOne device functions as botha lowering brake and as aratcheting pulley for raisingIdeal for confined spaceoperations because it convertsrapidly to a retrieval lineMeets BCCTR Rescue BelayCompetency Criteria**RevolutionizingRope Rescue SystemsOne MPD Replaces• Anchor Plate• 3 Carabiners• Rescue Rackor• Pulley• Prusik Cord• Load ReleaseStrapItem # Color Rope Size* 3σ MBS WeightPrice333000 Red 13 mm 44 kN (9,891 lbf.)

Decent Control* 13 mm Version is designed for use with 12.5 mm–13 mm rope. Rope used for certification rounded up to 13 mm per NFPA 1983. 11 mm version is designed for and tested with 11 mm rope.** The British Columbia Council of Technical Rescue (BCCTR) Belay Competency Drop Test specifies a 1-meter drop onto 3 meters of kernmantle rescue rope with less than1 meter of additional travel and less than 15 kN peak force. For a General Use rated device, a 280-kg load and a 12.7-mm rope are generally used. For a Light Use device,a 200-kg load and an 11.1-mm rope are used.cmc rescue | 800-235-5741 | 805-562-9120Personal Gear Auxiliary Equipment Patient Care & Transport Systems & Kits Bags & Packs Anchor Devices Rope & Web Hardware Harnesses
