LEVR™ BT Escape System

Los LEVR™ BT Escape System is an advanced firefighter escape and victim-lowering system designed for trained users who require the ability to lower a victim before conducting their own emergency escape. This system is built around the Byrne Technique, developed by firefighter and CMC School instructor Kelly Byrne, which provides a purpose-built solution for partner rescue and personal escape in one compact, highly capable package. The LEVR BT System is specifically tailored for advanced users who have undergone training in this technique, ensuring they can effectively perform both victim rescue and their own emergency egress under high-stress conditions.

Expanding on the proven LEVR Escape System platform, the LEVR BT System incorporates several key components that enhance its functionality and reliability. The Flash.G™ Escape Anchor serves as both an NFPA-classified Emergency Escape Anchor and Escape Descent Control Device (DCD), allowing rescuers to lower a victim before transitioning into their own personal escape system. This dual-purpose anchor is designed for durability and ease of use, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of firefighting operations. The LEVR Descender provides smooth, controlled descent and reliable edge transitions, making it an essential component in both rescue and escape scenarios. Its auto-locking design allows for hands-free exit when needed, which is crucial in high-stress environments where every second counts.

The system also includes an ergonomic non-slip handle that supports operation while wearing gloves, ensuring that firefighters can maintain control even with their gear on. The compact deployment bag provides access to both ends of the escape line, allowing for rapid deployment and efficient victim lowering operations. The dual-access design allows for quick victim connection and controlled payout, which is essential in time-sensitive rescue situations. Additionally, the captive-eye carabiner sewn directly to the web tail increases strength and reliability, ensuring that the system can handle the forces involved in rescue and escape scenarios.
