Restricted Applications - Falltech 7411 Manual De Instrucciones

Direct Overhead Applications: All FallTech Beam Anchors are suitable
for use in any application where the properly rated anchorage is directly
above the walking/working surface, and allows for a maximum Free-Fall
Distance of 6 feet.
Horizontal Lifelines: Model #'s 7489 and 7535 are suitable for use as
anchorage connectors in conjunction with FallTech's PSR Temporary
HLL System and with our Checkline 4-man Temporary HLL System.
If you have any questions regarding the suitability of this product for
your specific application, please consult with a competent person or
contact FallTech before using. Misuse of this product may result in
serious injury or death.
Warning: The beam flange to which you are attaching this product
must not be open-ended. If the flange is open on either end, and
the Beam Anchor is not captivated on the flange do not attempt to
use this device, as there is a serious risk of accidental
disengagement. Serious injury or death may result!

3.3: Restricted Applications

Harsh Chemical Environments: Acids and other caustic chemicals can
cause damage to this Beam Anchor and its component parts. Damage
from chemical exposure can be difficult to detect and FallTech
recommends increased inspection and/or replacement frequency.
Residential Construction: This product is not suitable for use in
residential construction applications.
Climbing/Fixed Ladders: Do not attempt to affix this product to a fixed
ladder to be used in conjunction with any other equipment for the
purposes of climbing or fall arrest.
Extended Free Falls: Most FallTech Beam Anchors are rated to
withstand the forces associated with extended free falls or foot-level tie-
off. Care must be taken to ensure that the beam does not make direct
contact with the gate or keeper on your connecting device. Such direct
contact could result in the forced roll-out or disengagement of your
connecting device. When in doubt, a FallTech Model # 7214 choker may
be used to extend the connection to ensure that your connecting device
is protected from the edge of the beam flange. See section 3.5 for
additional information. Be sure to use a connecting device that is rated
for free falls greater than six feet (i.e. 7247, 7248, 8247, 8248).
