cannot be hampered. 3) Full body harnesses are the only mean for retain the body
that can be used with the device. 4) In the due case it is necessary to leave the
device placed in the work location, make sure to adequately protect it from the
atmospheric conditions and from dirt. 5) The device is meant to bear with a total
descent energy of 7,5 x 106 J. The total descent energy is caluculated E = m x g
x h x n (m = mass; g = gravity acceleration; h = maximum lowering height; n =
number of descents). This device has been tested with the following parameters:
m max = 200 kg; g = 9.81 m/
s2
; h max = 180 m; n = 21 descents. Attention!
Consider this as the maximum attainable energy during use. 6) Whenever you
need to do a rapid sequence of lowering’s, pay particular attention taking back
in the rope for storing it in the bag or the designated area, to avoid forming knots
or twists on the line, which would hamper with the next descents. 7) Pay attention
about the possibility of the device to overheat during a descent and consequently
damage the anchor line.
8.4) Technical specifications of the permitted ropes (Fig. 1):
1.1) Product; 1.2)
Trademark; 1.3) Diameter; 1.4) Standard of the rope; 1.5) Breaking load of the
rope without end loops; 1.6) Breaking load of the rope with end loops; 1.7)
Weight; 1.8) Sheath weight; 1.9) Core weight; 1.10) Sheath slippage; 1.11)
Elongation; 1.12) Restringimento; 1.13) Material.
9) USE AS A CONNECTING ELEMENT.
The equipment has been tested at 18 kN with Patron Plus 11.0 rope, according
to the mode shown (Fig. 13.4) in order to comply with the values required by
the standard EN 795 (anchor devices) and to be used as a connecting element
between the anchor and the work and safety lines (Fig. 13.1-13.2). This type of
configuration is not covered by the standard but makes it possible to facilitate a
rescue manoeuvre, if necessary.
Attention!
The device must be installed using a
mule knot secured with a safety knot in order to guarantee the declared load and
avoid the accidental release of the line.
Attention!
The loop formed by the safety
knot must have a minimum length of 30 cm (Fig. 13.4).
Attention!
Make sure that
the remaining line has a length that is appropriate to the lowering, if necessary,
and that the correct terminations are in place (knot and/or sewn terminations).
