Compact and lightweight retractable type fall arrester with impact-resistant ABS protective cover and strong 46 mm polyester webbing with energy absorber.

Maintenance and storage of PPE

Working life

Use on ladder or metal structure

Correct and regular maintenance helps prevent premature ageing of PPE. For this reason, users are recommended to carefully respect all indications found in the user and maintenance manual that accompanies each PPE and to follow the simple storage and preservation rules:

  • Keep away from sunlight and UV rays as these are the primary cause of ageing of PPE textile fibers
  • Keep PPE away from direct heat sources as the synthetic textile fibers used to make harnesses, lanyards, and energy absorption systems have a very low melting temperature
  • PPE must be stored in cool and dry areas, as humidity generates mold harmful to textile fibers and corrosive on metal parts
  • A periodic cleaning operation is essential to ensure a good durability of the PPE
  • A washing with lukewarm water eliminates surface dirt and that present inside the textile fibers

The current legislation requires that each equipment must be subjected to periodic inspections:

  • Before, during and after use, the user must check the PPE conditions and integrity through a visual inspection after each use
  • At least every 12 months, PPE must be subjected to mandatory periodic checks and inspections by competent personnel authorized by the manufacturing company

Each PPE is accompanied by a manual and identity card that must be kept for the entire use duration of the product and filled in with the periodic inspections data.

The retractable fall arresters comply with EN 360. They are fall arrest systems that can be connected directly to the harness by connectors. Easy and practical to use. Equipped with a self-locking system and automatic return of the lanyard, they allow the operator to work safely while maintaining high freedom of movement. Retractable fall arresters are particularly useful for work on pitches, scaffolding, trellis and stairs. They can have wire rope or polyester webbing with length of 2, 6, 10 or 20 meters.

 

1. Connect the retractable fall arrester to the anchor point
2. Connect the connector on the end of the wire rope or textile webbing to the breast or back harness ring, if necessary (access from below) use the lanyard supplied as standard to retrieve the end of the wire rope
3. Progress in total freedom both up and down, the device follows the operator’s movements, ready to intervene
4. If you use the lanyard to recover the connector, at the end of the work it must be released slowly until the wire rope has completely rewound. DO NOT release the lanyard suddenly as this could cause damage to the retractable fall arrester
