*NOTE: Overhead mounting is
typically recommended. However,
with extensive testing, the Miller
Turbo T-BAK PFL and the Twin
Turbo T-BAK System have been
approved for anchoring below
the harness back D-ring with the
specified requirements (see Fig. 2a
& 2b). An additional shock absorber
is not required in these applications.
IMPORTANT: Fall clearance must
be calculated from the anchor point
when anchoring below the harness
back D-ring and the distance
between the anchor and harness
D-ring must be added into the
calculation. Refer to Calculating Fall
Clearance Distance in the Miller Self-
Retracting Lifelines & Fall Limiters
instruction manual.
Using the Twin Turbo D-Ring Connector
The Turbo T-BAK PFLs are designed to be used with the Twin Turbo D-Ring Connector when
100% continuous fall protection is needed. The Turbo T-BAK units connect to the Twin Turbo
D-Ring Connector in the same way as TurboLite units. Refer to the instructions provided with
the Twin Turbo System.
4.0 Inspection
In addition to the inspection procedures outlined
in the Self-Retracting Lifelines and Fall Limiters
instruction manual, the user must also inspect
the unique fall indicator included in the design
of the Turbo T-BAK.
Inspecting the Fall Indicator
The fall indicator is built into the top of the Turbo
T-BAK unit. Upon being subjected to fall arrest
forces, the dual internal shock absorber/fall
indicator will deploy up to 12 inches (305mm)
as shown. A red warning flag will be exposed,
which states that the unit must be removed from
service.
