FDIC Int’l 2021: Paratech’s All-New Rescue Guardian Goes on Display

At FDIC International 2021 in Indianapolis, Indiana, Paratech had on display its all-new Rescue Guardian, the most advanced monitoring and alarm system for technical rescue on the market.

Here, Paratech National Sales Manager Thomas Gavin gives an up-close look at the Rescue Guardian and its myriad capabilities.  



Designed for rescue professionals, the Rescue Guardian (part no. 22-796670) leverages remote monitoring for structural collapse, vehicle stabilization, and trench rescue. It was developed to monitor the safety of rescue personnel and on-scene victims and remotely monitor and alert users of any change in status—load, vibration, and incline—on their smart device.

Used as a stand-alone monitoring system or paired with Paratech’s complementary Remote Monitoring App for Android and iOS devices, users can monitor up to 10 Rescue Guardian systems on a single device remotely.

Rescue Guardian was designed for structural collapse, but is also an invaluable asset for other rescue incidents including vehicle stabilization and trench rescues. The system utilizes a warning system that includes six high powered red LEDs, a high decibel auditory alarm, and notifications via Bluetooth. Each system provides up to one week battery life under continuous usage in low-power monitoring mode, running on replaceable lithium-ion batteries.

Rescue Guardian is the newest in a suite of Paratech products designed by rescue professionals for rescue professionals. Other industry picks include the AcmeThread StrutDriver, ARFF Grab and Go Kit, Heavy Vehicle Extrication Kit (HVEK), MultiForce Air Lifting Bag, Structural Shoring, and SPF Hooligan.
