HOW DOES IT WORK?
The retractable type fall arrester must
be attached to a reliable anchorage by
its karabiner. The automatic karabiner
situated at the end of the cable or of
the strap must be attached to the at-
taching point of the fall arrest harness
(cf EN 361:2002). During the ascent
and/or the descent of the user, the
cable, strap will be kept in tension by
the retracting spring integrated into
the equipment. In event of a fall, the
clamping internal system will stop the
cable, strap uncoiling thanks to the
activation of a calibrated lock which
will stop the fall in optimal conditions.
The equipment is adjusted in factory
