When it comes to structural firefighting, firefighter-safety
equipment, and industrial-safety training, Adaptive Rescue Concepts (ARC) has
over 225 years of combined experience. By continuously striving to meet the
needs of their fire-service customers, they are able to improve key resources
and augment their capabilities to meet the needs of any challenge.
Of the many hazards that fires present, lack of visibility
due to smoke is one of the most dangerous. In broad-daylight conditions, it can
be so thick that vision is severely obscured, while at night, firefighters
can’t even see what they’re feeling with their hands. Consider the following
scenario:
You’ve placed your ladder and have climbed onto the roof of
a burning building. A hole punctures the roof, allowing thick, choking smoke to
pour from the breach. The smoke cloud quickly envelops any sight of the ledge
where the ladder was attached to. Luckily, after briefly searching, you safely
reach the edge of the roof and locate the ladder. You had enough time during
the encounter to make your escape, but what if you needed to get off the roof
immediately?
Enter the ARC
Ladder Light, specifically designed to provide the necessary illumination
so that firefighters can quickly, easily, and efficiently locate their ladders
and descend safely. Built to withstand the harsh environments that firefighters
endure, the durable ARC Ladder Light is housed in a strong, polycarbonate case
with sealed switches that ensure its longevity.
Along with a number of versatile mounting options that allow
it to be attached to virtually any surface, the ARC Ladder Light can produce a
maximum of 372 lumens to create a piercing beam of light capable of being seen
from great distances, thereby alerting incoming ground and/or air units of your
exact position. Some additional specs include:
- operating temperature range: -40 degrees Fahrenheit to 212 degrees Fahrenheit
- water-resistance rating: IP66
- switches: silicone boot
- LED color: green, low-battery warning indicator: red (LED)
- hardware: stainless and zinc
- eleven programmable flash/constant ON modes are pre-programmed
