Personal fall protection and size guide
Fall protection equipment must be used in work situations where there is a risk of falling, or where other measures such as modified processes or collective measures such as a guardrail has been considered first. The purpose of fall protection equipment is to prevent you from falling or to catch you if you should fall.
A personal fall protection system is made up of three components, easily remembered by utilizing the alphabets three first letters (ABC), namely: «Anchorage», «Body wear» and «Connector».
12 kN static tensile test (EN 795: 2012). Used to attach the connector to the anchorage. Permanent: E.g. horizontal wire and rail system (EN 795 type A). Temporary: E.g. slings and detachable hooks (EN 795 type B).
Holds the user in a safe position after a fall. Reduce impact force (<6 kN) to an acceptable load on the body. Only full-body harness to be used for fall protection/fall arrest. (Strap across shoulder, legs + anchorage in chest and/or back).
Used as an intermediate connector between anchorage and body wear. Active protection: Fall prevention, supporting line and positioning line. Passive protection: Arresting falls + reducing strain on user in case of a fall.
