b. Compatibility
Werner Co. equipment is designed for use with Werner Co. approved
components and subsystems only. Substitutions or replacements
made with non-approved components or subsystems may
jeopardize compatibility of equipment and may affect the safety and
reliability of the complete system.
Connectors are considered to be compatible with connecting
elements when they have been designed to work together in
such a way that their sizes and shapes do not cause their gate
mechanisms to inadvertently open regardless of how they become
oriented. Contact Werner Co. if you have any questions about
compatibility. Connectors (hooks, carabiners, and D-rings) must be
capable of supporting at least 5,000 lbs. (22.2kN). Connectors must
be compatible with the anchorage or other system components.
Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Non-compatible
connectors may unintentionally disengage. Connectors must be
compatible in size, shape, and strength. Self locking snap hooks
and carabiners are required by ANSI Z359 and OSHA.
