Fall-prevention device, 25 metre galvanised steel cable, with integrated shock absorber. Housing made of plastic. Stops all vertical falling movements almost immediately. Locking mechanism remains blocked even if there is a recoil effect after the fall (ideal for use with horizontal lifelines). Serves as connection between anchor point and harness. Includes ergonomic cable handle and carabiner with fall indicator that shows when it has been used to arrest a fall. For vertical and horizontal use; if horizontal: 2-metre anchor loop must be used (Art. 1026475).
Falling from a height is still one of the most common reasons for a fatal occupational accident.
When no collective protection equipment (e.g. balustrade or fence) can be used, it is necessary to secure the person with fall arrest harnesses, life lines, or fall arrest blocks. The building must also be equipped for this purpose. Just think of placing life lines and anchor points.
With us, you can choose from the best leading brands: Capital Safety, Protecta, DBI Sala, Skalt, 3M, etc.
Also remember that each fall protection device must be inspected at least once every 12 months or after a fall. You can also contact Vandeputte for a visual inspection and the maintenance and repair of fall arrest blocks.
In addition to personal fall protection, Vandeputte also installs fixed fall protection. You can contact us for railings, horizontal and vertical systems with cables or a rail, anchor points, etc.
It is often not possible to use a fixed installation at loading and unloading points where it must be possible to remove the anchoring point, at technical installations with a low drop depth or when servicing aircraft, trucks, or technical installations. In that case, we will be happy to advise you on the choice of a movable anchor mast or mobile ladder with anchor points.
