Compact Safety You Can Count On

The 3M™ DBI-SALA® Self-Rescue Device is an emergency descent system that activates after a fall, offering workers a safe, controlled way to lower themselves to the ground. This device is ideal for professionals working at height who need immediate post-fall escape options.

Reliable Post-Fall Descent

Have you ever thought about what happens after a fall is arrested? How will your workers get down safely without waiting for rescue? The Self-Rescue Device provides a dependable solution—deploying automatically when needed and allowing a smooth descent from up to 100 feet (depending on model). It helps prevent suspension trauma and speeds up rescue response.

Worn on the Harness

This lightweight, compact unit integrates directly into select 3M™ DBI-SALA® ExoFit™ and Delta™ harnesses without interfering with daily movement. Its low-profile design stays out of the way until it’s needed—then it’s ready in seconds.

Controlled Descent Mechanism

The device uses a sealed, centrifugal brake to regulate descent speed, ensuring consistent and safe lowering regardless of the user’s weight (within rated capacity). No special training or tools are required to operate.

Key Features:

  • Compatible with select DBI-SALA® harnesses

  • Built-in deployment cord for quick access

  • Controlled descent rate of 3 ft/sec

  • Capacity: 130–310lbs (including tools)

  • Complies with OSHA and ANSI Z359.4 standards

For anyone working at height, the 3M™ DBI-SALA® Self-Rescue Device is an essential tool that adds a critical layer of protection beyond traditional fall arrest systems.

  • 100 ft. (30.5 m) detachable self-rescue system, self-contained nylon pack with molded padding.
  • EZ-Link™ D-ring for fast connections
  • 100 ft. of 5.5 mm rope
  • Assisted-rescue ring for incapacitated user
  • Sealed descent device and rope spool extends longevity
  • Molded padding provides durability and comfort
  • Lightweight, low profile design

Instead of wondering how long it will take to alert others to your fall, or how long before trained rescuers can gather the appropriate equipment to get you down, you can simply avoid all that and free yourself.
