URBAN SEARCH AND RESCUE EQUIPMENT (USAR)

LEADER offers a complete range of firefighter equipment for search and rescue operations such as Urban Search and Rescue (USAR), structural collapses, etc.

This Urban Search and Rescue equipment is used by search and rescue specialists, firefighters (following road accidents, building collapses, etc.), INSARAG teams (International Search And Rescue Advisory Group) and civil defence teams (FORMISC, UIISC, etc.) worldwide following natural disasters (such as earthquakes, hurricanes, storms, flash flooding, major flooding, mudslides, landslides, avalanches, etc.) or major disasters (such as mining disasters, explosions, industrial accidents, terrorist attacks or structural collapses).

URBAN SEARCH AND RESCUE EQUIPMENT DESIGNED WITH AND FOR USAR RESCUE TEAMS

For over 20 years, LEADER has designed and manufactured high-tech USAR life locator equipment to speed up rescues following a major natural disaster.

LEADER is the only manufacturer to offer a complete range of Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) equipment to rescue buried victims using all the technologies commonly used in search and rescue operations to detect and locate buried victims:

  • victim location/detection
    • SEARCH: Electronic life detector device using seismic/sound/vibration detection:
      • seismic sensors (or acoustic sensors) to listen to sounds/vibrations, also known as a geostereophone, USAR listening device, listening system under rubble, sound search device, life locator, etc.
    • SCAN: Electronic life detector device using UWB movement detection:
      • USAR UWB (Ultra Wide Band) rescue radar to detect the movements of victims buried under rubble, whether conscious or unconscious.
  • and the visual location of survivors + communication:
    • CAM: USAR colour search camera to locate victims through a visual search in a confined space or at height, also known as an endoscopic camera, exploration camera...
    • TIC: USAR thermal imaging search cameras to locate victims through a visual search for hotspots in rubble in very dark, dusty, smoky environments, etc.
    • RD90: USAR waterproof search cameras to locate victims in very damp environments or underwater to a depth of 90 metres or 180 metres

 

LEADER’S URBAN SEARCH AND RESCUE EQUIPMENT RANGE IS BECOMING MORE VERSATILE => MULTISEARCH!

For many years, LEADER has offered MONO-APP (mono-application) and even dual application urban search and rescue equipment. This includes LEADER HASTY (2-in-1 life locator device) which combined seismic detection (thanks to its seismic sensors) and visual location (thanks to its search cam) using a single control box.

=> In other words, a single control box could control two search peripherals: seismic detectors and the search and rescue camera.

Now, for complete versatility, 5 LEADER search peripherals can be connected to the same control box, called the “MULTI-APP” box.

RESCUER SAFETY IS A NUMBER ONE PRIORITY... THANKS TO LEADER SENTRY AND LEADER WASP

LEADER has also developed 2 complementary monitoring and protection devices (LEADER SENTRY and LEADER WASP). They are used to monitor and secure search and rescue operations near unstable structures (buildings, rocks, bridges, any object which may collapse).

These two monitoring and protection devices can detect the smallest movement of an unstable object and alert USAR teams of the imminent collapse of a dangerous structure thanks to their powerful alarm.

LEADER also offers the electrical current sensor LEADER VOLT, which can remotely detect AC power and alert rescue teams on site.
