Elastic fall arrest lanyard with high elongation ratio. The two wide-opening connectors with safety lever allow for alternating anchoring of the lanyards, keeping the operator safe. 

The double fall arrest lanyard is equipped with an energy absorber with webbing and a containment casing to reduce the force of impact during a fall.

Falling factors

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

Lanyard without energy absorber

PHASE 1: situation of potential fall risk
PHASE 2: during the fall the lanyard does not perform a shock-absorbing function 
PHASE 3: the energy caused by the fall is absorbed completely by the body of the operator / l’énergie provoquée par la chute se répercute complètement sur le corps de l’opérateur

Lanyard with energy absorber

PHASE 1: situation of potential fall risk
PHASE 2:  In the fall, the lanyard performs a shock-absorbing function thanks to the effect of the energy absorber
PHASE 3: The energy caused by a fall is remarkably reduced by the effect of the energy absorber

A. FALL FACTOR 0

The anchorage point is positioned above the operator’s head; the fall protection device is completely extended. In the event of a fall, there is less distance between the surface the operator is standing on and possible obstacles below

B. FALL FACTOR 1

The anchorage point is positioned at the same level as the harness connection point. In this case, the fall distance is equal to the length of the lanyard + the intervention distance of the energy absorber 

C. FALL FACTOR 2 

The anchorage point is positioned at the same level as the surface the operator is standing on. In this case, the fall distance is equal to twice the length of the lanyard + the intervention distance of the energy absorber
