Description
For sale is a New Old Stock (NOS) Parat Fire Escape System, a professional-grade mechanical descent device. Manufactured in Norway by Parat A/S, these systems are renowned for their robust engineering and ease of use in critical situations.
Condition:
This unit is in superb physical condition and remains sealed in its original heavy-duty protective plastic bag. The internal components appear pristine with no signs of environmental damage.
Note on Seals: The small internal plastic security tag that holds the red casing tensioned has come loose, causing slight movement between the red and white sections. This is common for these units and does not affect the integrity of the sealed outer bag.

Automatic Control: Features a mechanical braking system for a steady, controlled descent—no specialist training required.

Photoluminescent: The label on the main unit is designed to be visible in low-light or smoke-filled environments.
Important Safety Information:
Please note the manufacture date of December 2008. While this unit is unused and has been stored in a protective seal, standard industry safety guidelines suggest a service life of roughly 10 years for textile components like ropes and harnesses.
This item is sold as a high-quality vintage safety collectible. For any intended emergency use, the buyer must have the unit professionally inspected and recertified.
