Captive fittingsavailable

MAX top anchorage enablesfast change out of captive topconnectors at time of service.

Raising mechanismfor rescue

The R models have a rotatingwheel handle for raising acasualty a short distance aspart of a rescue.

Checkmate MAX Descender Range

The Checkmax MAX Descender is the most versatile constant

rate descender on the market today, packed full of innovative

features, and for use by up to three people. Models are available

for both automatic hands free operation, and multiple descent

models with advanced rescue functionality.

Two rope options are available for either 150kg or 300kg rated

loads.

The device is designed to be used attached to the anchor point in

regular mode of operation, or in an inverted mode, attached to the

user and / or casualty.

The device is completely symmetrical, allowing full use of all

functions regardless of the direction the MAX is running. This also

gives full functionality for each multiple descent or rescue.
