PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Figure 1 illustrates the 3M™ DBI-SALA® Rollgliss™ R550 Rescue & Escape Device (R550 Device). The R550 Device is a rescue
device that is intended to lower one or two people simultaneously from an elevated height to a lower level in a rescue situation.
Figure 2 illustrates components of the R550 Device. See Table 1 for Component Specifications. The body of the R550 Device
is comprised of the Housing Assembly (A). The Rope Sheave (B) is held within the Housing Assembly and ensures smooth
operation of the Lifeline (C). The Anchor Loop (D) secures the Carabiner (E) to the top of the system, in addition to modular
components; in conjunction, the two components secure the R550 Device to an anchorage point. The Thimble (F) of the Lifeline
secures the Snap Hooks (G), which connect to the harness of the user. The Rescue Hub (H) is attached to the Housing Assembly
and facilitates rescue applications for the 3329XXX series of R550 Device models.
