Skedco 3" Double Pulley without bracket

While most customers will want to select their own equipment to meet their specific needs, it is often useful to have a starting point which addresses the fundamental needs for confined space rescue. To that end, Skedco has combined what we believe to be essential items into a Confined Space Rescue kit. The customers are free to add or delete rescue items form the kit to acquire the appropriate equipment for their situation. Skedco recommends that compentent rescue professionals be consulted to address the specific requirements of any potentially hazardous environment. The Sked-Evac CSR kit is available for hole depths of 25 feet, 50 feet, 75 feet, 100 feet, or can be custom ordered for any depth.
Each Sked-Evac CSR kit contains the following items:

• SK-700: Sked-Evac Tripod
• SK-701: Sked-Evac Tripod Bag
• SK-200-OR: Sked Basic Rescue System
• SK-300-OR: Oregon Spine Splint II
• OP-2029: Ambu Collar Assortment Kit
• SK-720-xx: Skedco 4:1 Rescue Kit
• OP-2107D: Full Body Adjustable Rescue Harnesses (2 each)
• SK-740-xx: Tag Line
• SK-740-xx: Belay Line
• SK-911-12: Skedco 12' x 3" Anchor Sling

Tag and belay lines contain hole depth plus 25' of 1/2" PMI Rescue Rope. Replace xx with hole depth to designate kit preference. Hole depth should be determined by measuring from the top of tripod to bottom of hole.

The Sked-Pak™ I Jumpable Medical Ruck includes a sewn-on single point release and removable leg straps to meet the technical requirements for use by a parachutist. This design eliminates the need for the traditional "H" harness. When released the pack drops on a lowering line for personnel safety on landing. It includes outer storage pockets, two canteen pockets, and a removable accessory pack which can be attached on the top or bottom. A second accessory pack can be purchased to increase storage capacity. Compression straps, leg straps, and release mechanism are included with each bag. The compression straps prevent loss of equipment should the zipper burst on impact. Coil zippers are used throughout the bag, allowing sliders to be pulled back over a popped zipper, making it good as new. The Sked-Pak™ I includes all internal components described below. It does not include pack frame or canteens. A Camelback can replace the 2-qt canteens. Military personnel and other jumpers are encouraged to contact Skedco for complete information regarding parachute jumping provisions of the bag.

The Sked-Pak™ II is a simpler alternative to the Sked-Pak™ I, for those who do not require the jumpable bag or storage for personal gear. The Sked Pak™ II has the same internal dimensions and components as the Sked-Pak™ I. This bag has a handle, which allows it to be carried like a suitcase, as well as stowable/concealed shoulder straps which allow it to be worn as a backpack. The Sked-Pak™ II is ideal for ground based or civilian medic, as well as air, water or ground ambulances. Since the removable main compartment is identical to the Sked-Pak™ I, a single insert could be stocked and transferred from bag to bag as dictated by field conditions.

Mass Casualty - Decontaminable Haz-Mat Sked Stretcher

This litter is designed for use in mass casualty incidents. These incidents could be airline crashes, terrorist incidents, Haz-Mat or any other incident where large numbers of people must be evacuated.
The HMD Sked® is extremely versatile. It can be dragged over virtually any terrain including stairways. It requires less effort from rescuers wearing level A protection. The two inch side release buckles on all straps are easy to handle with the thick gloves on level A or B suits. The straps are polypropylene for resistance to chemicals. They have sewn loops on the ends for quick attachment and removal.
Patients can be rolled onto the HMD Sked® rather than lifting or carrying. This creates less rescuer fatigue and allows many more victims to be saved. A downed rescuer in level A can be roll loaded by using his air tank for leverage and evacuated before the standby team can zip up and enter the area. This allows his rescue without committing the standby team.
Ropes are attached to both ends of the HMD Sked® for towing out of the Hot Zone by rescuers at decon, which allows saving energy and precious air of the level A rescuer. This results in many more victims being saved. We have seen rescuers package 25 patients in 10 minutes using this method.

Skyhook Rope Winch System
This capstan style winch is rated to haul people into helicopters. It fits onto a Sked-Evac tripod. It can handle unlimited lengths of rope and is self tailing. It has recently been discovered for use in the WMD/Haz-Mat environment. When using continuous loops of rope it can haul as many as 6 victims at one time while delivering empty HMD skeds back to the hot zone.
Skyhook rope winch includes:

• Skyhook winch
• Custom carry case
• Trailer hitch mount
• Powerhead bracket
• Powerhead
• Standard crank arm
• Floating crank arm (optional)
• Cordura cover for winch capstan

This system includes everything necessary for rapid evacuation of mass casualties in a chem-bio environment. Because we never know how far we can get from the hot zone, we are including continuous loop twisted polypropylene ropes, 1 each, for distances of 100 ft., 150 ft., and 200 ft. Longer ropes are available by special order. This kit allows as many as 4 rescuers in level A to work in the hot zone on a major incident. There are 2 skeds for each rescuer in level A. There are also 4 clean skeds for moving patients from the warm zone to decon to prevent dragging contaminated litters outside the area. Videos are available.
Note: It would be advisable to have a shower system between the hot zone and warm zone to drag patients through to initially decon the patients and litters. This will be extremely important if they need to wait any length of time before going through the decon station. Ambulatory patients can also walk through it.
The kit consists of:

• 12 HMD Sked Stretchers & 3 rapid deployment bags
• Skyhook Rope Winch System (SK-2530)
• Bagged continuous loop rope 200 ft. distance
• Bagged continuous loop rope 150 ft. distance
• Bagged continuous loop rope 100 ft. distance (Note: amount of rope is double the distance and the ends are splice together at the factory)
• 2 knot passing pulleys
• 2 2-inch polypropylene slings
• 14 large aluminum D carabiners
• 40 ft. 1/2" nylon kernmantle rope
• 2 8mm PMI prusik cord
• 8 HazMat rope grabs
• 40 ft. 1/2" polypropylene solid braid rope
• 1 100 ft. extension cord with reel
• 1 large screwdriver

This kit is designed for a large mass casualty incident. (more HMD skeds may be needed)

HMD Skeds can be stored and shipped on pallets of 50 to 150 per pallet. Pallets can be stacked 4 high for prolonged storage of up to 600 HMD Skeds in a space of 8' x 3' x 7.5' high. Bagged strap sets stored in moisture resistant boxes on top of the stack. Pallets can be placed on 4' x 8' trailers and towed or sling loaded under helicopters or loaded onto light trucks for transport to the incident. Two people, one on each side of the pallet can attach the straps. HMD Skeds are assembled in 1-2 minutes each. This is faster than they can be used.
Ready to use HMD Skeds can be rolled 1-4 per bundle in rapid deployment bags for easy storage in compartments of Haz-Mat rescue or fire apparatus. This allows for rapid use by units first on the scene.
Emergency responses to Hazardous Materials incidents are not just dangerous. They are very complex, personnel rich, and the equipment is very expensive. These factors greatly limit the numbers of non-ambulatory patients that can be removed from a contaminated zone. The introduction of the HMD Sked and newly developed tactics, have greater capabilities in fulfilling the rescue mission. These include, at the very least, the ability to rapidly (a word not often used in Haz-Mat operations) remove large numbers of patients and minimize the risk to rescuers. By using these creative new techniques and others being developed, the potential of this device is only limited by the creativity and expertise of the trainers and field personnel. Medical Examiners have now found it safer, faster and easier to recover bodies from the contaminated area.
The rapid deployment case holds 4 HMD Skeds assembled and ready for use. It will also carry 8 bagged Shuttle Sked rope kits. That allows you to have the complete kit in 2 or 3 bags. With Haz-Mat incidents on the rise in this country and the potential for terrorist activities which can result in mass casualty incidents, the HMD Sked is a tool that allows response personnel to efficiently and above all, more SAFELY rescue substantially more of the victims.
