EXO AP HOOK EXO AP HOOK is a personal escape system with an anchor hook, designed for situations where the possibility of finding an anchor point is uncertain. It has a self-braking system with anti-panic function for quickly moving horizontally, climbing through a window, and controlling or stopping a descent. If the user pulls too hard on the handle, the anti-panic function brakes and stops the descent automatically.
The typical scenario is of a firefighter trapped inside a burning structure. They need to be able to self-evacuate and must have the appropriate equipment to do so.
Technical specifics: In this situation, the firefighter must be able to take advantage of any available anchor point inside the building, or as a last resort, a window sill The exit generally takes place in an extremely hot, smoke-filled, and hostile environment, adding to the limitations The maneuvers must be as simple as possible, for quick action even under intense duress
SELF-RESCUE

Re-establishment below the window while holding the free end of the rope.
