KC Supply's "Extricator" - Grain Engulfment Rescue Cofferdam
The rugged "Extricator" is designed to prevent a trapped worker from becoming another statistic.
The cofferdam’s sections act as a shield so that rescuers can remove the grain which is pressing against the victim. Once the grain is removed, the victim can be extricated.
