REFERENCE: FA 20 203 00
Materials: Steel and Polymer
Fastenings: STAINLESS STEEL (316 A4-70)
Weight: 1.080 kg
Tools needed: Two 13mm spanners or 2 adjustable spanners.
Installation: Prepare the bottom attachment point making sure it is aligned with the top anchorage point.
Place this bottom attachment point sufficiently high enough to allow the action of the counterweight; allow about 60 cm under the bottom
attachment point.
Fix the intermediate attachment point with its backing plate using the fastenings supplied.
Installing this type of assembly does not require tightening with a torque wrench.
The fastenings and any accessories supplied are designed to suit your situation; if in doubt contact us!
1.11 THE ANCHOR LINE (cable) – Bottom end AND TENSIONING SYSTEM:
- Case 1: Installation of an EN353-1 system: Mobile fall prevention system on a rigid anchor line: the installation is fitted with a tensioner on the
cable.
The tensioner should be loosened off by about 50 mm on either side before installation to allow the cable to be tensioned afterwards.
Fit the tensioner to the bottom attachment using the pin and locking pin supplied with the tensioner. Place the thimble loop on the other part of the
tensioner with the cotter pin.
Pass the cable through the thimble loop. The cable return should measure about 20 cm; if it is longer, cut the surplus with a cable cutter.
Hold the cable on itself using the 2 cable clamps (pay attention to the mounting direction).
Adjust the cable tension by screwing the tensioner up manually; do not apply excessive tension. Tension in the line is sufficient when the red washer
turns freely (which corresponds to tension of about 0.8 kN).
REFERENCE: FA 20 205 00
- Case 2: Installation of an EN353-2 system: Mobile fall prevention system on a flexible anchor line: the installation is fitted with a counterweight on
the cable.
Thread the cable through the 2 plastic washers on the bottom attachment, form a loop with the thimble loop and the 2 cable clamps supplied with the
counterweight.
The loop formed should allow the counterweight to be attached using a connector or quick link. Caution: the counterweight must not touch the ground!
