Fall arrester with webbing (3.5m - 12m)

Description

Height safety device (HSG) with webbing (2m - 12m) is sharp-edge tested, approved for horizontal use and secures workers against falling during a wide range of activities: from permanent use in overhead systems to temporary use at existing anchorage points and options on the roof, façade or scaffolding. With the ABS B-Lock with webbing, you can choose different extension lengths between 2 and 12 m. Due to its low weight, this compact fall arrester can always be carried as part of personal fall protection equipment (PPE) and used spontaneously when required. Larger models can be attached to roller gliders of fully traversable lifeline systems without hindering traversability.

In addition, the textile webbing does not leave any scratches on sensitive surfaces such as glass or paint. The function of the ABS B-Lock fall arresters is comparable to that of a seat belt in your car: The rope or harness length adjusts automatically when working up to the maximum extension length without restricting the user. If the harness is pulled out suddenly - such as in the event of a fall - the pawls inside the fall arrester lock into place. The ABS B-Locks stop at an extension speed of more than 0.5 meters per second. The integrated braking system also serves as a shock absorber that limits the forces acting on the human body in the event of a fall.

Depending on the weather and application, the ABS B-Lock reduces the forces to 3-4 kN - and thus remains well below the value of 6 kN required by EN 360:2002. Whatever extension length you need, with all ABS B-Lock retractable type fall arresters you can rely on high quality and practical additional features. The webbing has a strength of 15 kN and is made of hard-wearing and durable polyamide. To prevent the webbing from twisting, the HSG is equipped with a swivel suspension at the top and bottom ends.

A fall indicator on the carabiner indicates when someone may have been caught by the device and maintenance is required. ABS B-Lock fall arresters are suitable for a load of up to 136 kg (person incl. equipment) and are protected by a robust plastic housing.
