FAQ

Product Questions

What makes AWAH devices different from traditional pulleys?

AWAH devices are 3-in-1 tools: pulley, ascender, and descender. They're the world's first drill-powered vertical access system — pair with a standard brushless hand drill for powered lifting. The Z3 series features a built-in gearbox crash self-locking device: if gears fail, it automatically locks within 10 cm. No special batteries, no heavy motors. Built to XF 494-2023 standard.

Do I need a special drill to use AWAH devices?

No. Any standard brushless hand drill within the torque range works. Z3-MINI: 90–180 Nm. Z3-PROF / Z3-FIRE: 120–180 Nm. Z2-A: 50–150 Nm. Never use impact drivers, hammer drills, or any tool with impact functions.

What safety certifications do AWAH products have?

All AWAH products are built to XF 494-2023, the PRC fire rescue industry standard, and are approved for personnel support under this standard. The Z3 series has obtained CE certification. Under EU regulations, AWAH devices do not carry PPE certification — check local regulations before use.

Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?

Yes. We offer free samples to qualified buyers. Contact us with your use case and requirements, and we'll ship a sample unit for evaluation.

What maintenance do AWAH devices require?

Inspect before every use. Perform detailed inspection every 6 months. Annual evaluation including sheave wear test. The gearbox is factory-lubricated and maintenance-free within its 6-year service life. Never add liquid oil to Z3 gearboxes.
