Climb Assist

Climbing assistance for working at height

As an auxiliary climbing equipment, the Climb Assist can provide a continuous lifting force of about 30-50kg for the climbing personnel of the wind power tower, reducing the climbing intensity and reducing the risks that may be caused by physical exertion.

Improving Health & Safety

The repetitive motion of climbing the turbine tower is strenuous and causes countless injuries. The resulting sick leave and reduced employee motivation can stress the efficiency of the project.

Our Climb Assist provides a constant lifting force during tower ascent and descent, significantly reducing fatigue and strain. This boosts health and safety while also augmenting employee satisfaction and retention.

Automatically Adapts to the Climber’s Speed

The 3S LIFT Climb Assist features an advanced design that automatically adapts to the climber’s speed. Variable-frequency vector control assures precisely attuned assistance, whether climbing up or down the tower. No manual operation is required to start or stop the system, allowing the operator to maintain a safe hold on the ladder.

Retrofit in 3 Hours or Less

The 3S LIFT Climb Assist can be easily retrofitted to any turbine ladder in less than three hours. It is easy to install and maintain, providing a low-cost solution for climbing assistance.

Installations Worldwide

The Climb Assist is CE and UL certified and trusted by customers around the globe. Highly valued for its safety, reliability, and ease of use, the 3S LIFT Climb Assist has been installed in turbines worldwide.

Key Features

  • Advanced Speed-Adapting Technology
    Equipped with advanced speed adapting technology, the Climb Assist provides steady assistive force, adapting dynamically to the climber’s speed.
  • Variable-Frequency Vector Control
    Variable-frequency vector control enables excellent dynamic performance and comfortable assistant force.
  • Ascent Assistance
    The Climb Assist offers a constant lifting force of 30–50 kg (65–110 lbs) during ascent, which can be easily adjusted based on the operator’s weight.
  • Descent Assistance
    The Climb Assist provides a steady lifting force of 30 kg (65 lbs) during descent. This reduces stress on the body, especially on the knees and ankles.
  • Optional: Full Cycle Model
    The Climb Assist is also available as a full-cycle model (CA-2E), which enables a quicker transition between operators. Once the first operator is done climbing, the second operator can clip onto the wire rope anywhere and begin ascent immediately, without having to wait for the return of the connection point.
