Reid's Porta-Gantry Rapide has
been chosen by
WEFTEC (Water
Environment Federation's
Annual Technical Exhibition
and Conference) in the US
as a key component in its
annual Safety
Operations Challenge
for 2012-2015.
The lightweight, portable PG-Rapide is capable of multiple configurations depending on the requirement, and is easily and rapidly assembled by one person in just one minute. With a goods rating of WLL 500kg and personnel lifting/fall arrest capability for three people, it weighs just 31kg.
At WEFTEC over 40 safety teams will race to recover an unconscious worker overcome by an unknown chemical in a manhole. The PG-Rapide was selected following its strong showing in last year's exhibition. Made from optimised, custom designed aluminium alloy sections, the PG is designed to be stowed in most service vans and easily transported and operated within manual handling guidelines.
