RPM configuration is the same as In-Line.ġ1 Pig-Rig RPM (Lower) Prusik is removed from here & set aside Pulley & carabiner are removed from here & set aside The Pig-Rig RPM adds an additional rope for raising operations, enabling the mainline ili to be fully fll extended dd to it s maximum reach. Pig-Rig g RPM employs a second rope for mechanical advantage allowing the mainline to be fully extended over-the-side to i it s maximum length or reach.ĩ Change-of-Direction RPM (Lower) A change of direction pulley and anchor are added here The Change-of-Direction RPM bends the Mainline 90 degrees to keep the system off of a roadway or position it to a more advantageous location. Change-of-Direction RPM bends the mainline 90 degrees to move the system off of a roadway or to a more advantageous location. They are: In-Line RPM Change-of-Direction RPM Pig-Rig RPM Each offer advantages & disadvantagesĦ Advantages of Each Configuration In-Line RPM is the simplest and uses the least amount of gear. Let s look at an illustrated example of the most basic configuration on the next slideģ Rope Rescue System Components RPM Anchor Anchor Double Prusik Belay with Mariner s Mainline Belay Line Both Mainline & Belay Lines always have separate and dedicated anchorsĤ RPM Definition Rack Pulley/Prusik Mariner s Knot (a load release strap) with pulley and prusik attached as shownĥ The 3 Configurations of RPMs: There are three distinct t configurations of RPMs for Rope rescue & access. There are 3 configurations of rope rescue systems generally agreed upon by Fire Service Rescue professionals in California that can be adapted to any rope rescue or access situation. 1 The 3 Configurations of Rope Rescue SystemsĢ Rope Rescue Systems Rope Rescue Systems incorporate a mainline to lower and raise rescuers and victims and A Belay line which provides a redundant safety component for those who are suspended from the mainline.
