HERMEQ’s Counterbalance Davit System is a modular confined space access and rescue solution used on US construction, utility, and industrial sites. Designed for fast setup without permanent fixings, this system is fully portable and includes all key components for fall arrest, lifting, and retrieval in vertical entry applications.

It comprises five lightweight parts for simple manual assembly, including an adjustable base with independently leveling legs. This setup ensures safe deployment even on uneven or sloped terrain. A weight rack houses 24 ballast weights (15 kg each) to provide counterbalance for the davit arm.

  • Compatible with: RGA4, AB15RT fall arrest, and RGR7 man-riding winches
  • Adjustable reach: 19.5 in to 29 in
  • Adjustable legs – Allows safe use on uneven ground
  • Tool-free modular build – Quick to transport, assemble, and reposition
  • Supplied with 24 x 15 kg weights – Delivers 4:1 safety factor for stability

Designed for flexibility on restricted access sites or excavation zones, this davit system enables OSHA-compliant entry into pits, tanks, chambers, and shafts. It replaces the need for bolted or cored base anchors and provides safe access in unpredictable work zones.
