Avalanche triggering systems
AVALANCHE GUARD LW2700 / LW5400
With an arsenal of innovative technologies, the Avalanche Guard permits safety at the push of a button.
The Avalanche Guard is the so-called main module of the comprehensive Avalanche Guard® safety system from Inauen-Schätti. It patiently waits to be used. When it’s time, the Guard reliably executes its order at the push of a button. Whatever the weather conditions and whether during the day or at night. It is characterised by its extremely reliable technology, its high safety standard and an effective range of up to 400 m.
Every shot is a hit!
Avalanche Guards are installed at easily accessible locations for reloading, on heavy-duty foundations or by using rock anchors. They are equipped with one or two throw boxes, each with 10 decomposable explosive charges, in 2.4 kg or 4.5 kg variants. These are manually loaded before winter via a stable, fold-up platform. The loads are triggered via remote control and shot at the individual blast points. They always reliably reach their target over distances of up to 200 m.

Our avalanche guards are an effective artificial avalanche blasting solution.
Ski area in Lech secured
Another example of the use of our Avalanche Guards - known back then as avalauncher - can be found with the two avalanche guards in the ski area in Lech am Arlberg. They secure the Langer Zug / Rüfikopf ski slopes. Thanks to different propellant charges, two to three different targets can be targeted from one blasting box and thus avalanches can be triggered selectively and over a wide area.
Blasting avalanches is simple, efficient, safe and cost-effective thanks to our Avalanche Guards.
Do you have any questions about avalanche protection?
This is also relevant for avalanche protection in the vicinity of roads. Our Avalanche Trigger LM32 avalanche mast is specifically designed for this purpose with its impressive capacity of 32 explosive charges for remote controlled artificial avalanche triggering.
