The Toolbox of Line Throwers
PLT® Multi is an air driven multi-purpose line thrower that is being used both at sea and on land. The heart of the PLT® Multi is the PLT® Launching Unit that works on either 200 (2900 psi) or 300 bars (4350 psi).
It can be used again immediately after being refilled with compressed air. Since the PLT® Launching Unit works on compressed air, it does not have an expiry date and is not considered as dangerous goods.
The PLT® Launching Unit has a toolbox of 11 different projectiles and 4 different launching tubes. The multi-purpose launching unit is perfect for an operator that wants to combine different projectiles for various operations or tasks without using more than one launcher.
In the maritime environment users typically choose the PLT® Multi as deck equipment for operational reasons, stand by and to comply with SOLAS regulations. Some of the projectiles has specific purposes, like SOLAS LTA requirements, picking up lines, or for general purpose such as heaving a line from point A to B.
For land based activity, the PLT® Multi is being used by fire departments, rescue organizations, power and mining plants, on construction sites, terminals and by police and military organizations. It is a preferred tool as it is easy to re-use and to practice with as well as its low maintenance cost.
The PLT® Multi opens a wide range of possibilities for a user. We are happy to discuss solutions that can be helpful for you as a user. We can also adjust to your requirement and even tailor make a solution for you through our PLT® Concepts department. We are committed to share our knowledge on pneumatic line throwers to solve your tasks.
