Person
SRL
(Figure 14)
Inspect for loose bolts and bent or damaged parts.
Inspect Housing (A) for distortion, cracks, or other damage.
Inspect the Swivel Eye (B) for distortion, cracks, or other damage. The Swivel Eye should be attached
securely to the SRL, but should pivot freely.
The Lifeline (C) should pull out and retract fully without hesitation or creating a slack line condition.
Ensure device locks up when lifeline is jerked sharply. Lockup should be positive with no slipping.
NOTE: SRLs with RSQ should be in Fall Arrest Mode for this test (see Figure 11)
The labels must be present and fully legible (see Figure 20).
Look for signs of corrosion on the entire unit.
Swivel Snap Hook & Impact
Indicator
(Figure 15)
Inspect the Swivel Snap Hook for signs of damage, corrosion, and working condition. Swivel should
rotate freely. Inspect the Impact Indicator. If the Red Band is displayed (Indicated Mode), impact
loading has occurred and the SRL must be removed from service and inspected. Do not attempt to
reset the Impact Indicator. Return the SRL to an authorized service center for resetting. NOTE: The
Swivel will not turn freely when the Impact Indicator is in Indicated Mode.
Wire Rope Lifeline
(Figure 16)
Inspect wire rope for cuts, kinks (A), broken wires (B), bird-caging (C), welding splatter, (D)
corrosion, chemical contact areas, or severely abraded areas. Slide the cable bumper up and inspect
ferrules for cracks or damage and inspect the wire rope for corrosion and broken wires. Replace the
wire rope assembly if there are six or more randomly distributed broken wires in one lay, or three or
more broken wires in one strand in one lay. A “lay” of wire rope is the length of wire rope it takes for
a strand (the larger groups of wires) to complete one revolution or twist along the rope. Replace the
wire rope assembly if there are any broken wires within 25 mm (1 in) of the ferrules.
Reserve Lifeline
(Figure 17)
Inspect the reserve lifeline payout. If a fall has been arrested with most of the lifeline out, the reserve
lifeline may have been deployed. Pull the lifeline out of the SRL until it stops. If a red band is visible,
the reserve lifeline is spent and the unit must be serviced by an authorized service center before
reuse.
RSQ Components
(Figure 18)
A hand pull test should be performed on RSQ Components prior to each use:
1.
Set RSQ Engagement Knob to Descent position (Figure 18).
2. Grasp the lifeline and pull firmly to engage descent mechanism.
3. Continue to smoothly pull out approximately 3 ft (1 m) of cable. Steady resistance should be felt
when pulling out cable.
SRL-LE Energy Absorber
(Figure 19)
On Self-Retracting Lanyards with Leading Edge capability (SRL-LEs) verify that the integral Energy
Absorber has not been activated. There should be no webbing pulled out of the cover (A). The cover
should be secure and free of tears (B) or other damage.
