Information on system installation and usage
-
The system guarantees full-scale safety for the user, regardless of the sag of the wire.
-
Sag of the wire may change during the lifetime of the system, e.g. due to the mounting actions,
thermal expansion or other dynamic effects. It is important that the DiaSafe
®
systems are not
anchored systems, the wire does not need to be entirely tight, on the contrary, overtight wires
originating from the incorrectly adjusted sag of the wire disadvantageously affect the efficiency and
durability of the anchoring system.
-
If posts of the system are distorted due to the incorrect wire tension during or after the installation,
it means that the system was overstretched. The allowed distortion of the posts is 45° measured
from the vertical axis in any direction, but the side of the cone (from the point measured back
vertically 10 mm from the top of the cone to the bottom) as well as its bottom part shall remain
intact, they must keep their integrity.
-
Such bending of a post due to mounting, thermal expansion or other dynamic effects means solely
an aesthetic change to the system, it cannot be subjected to manufacturer
’
s warranty procedure.
-
The system is capable to accomplish its function even in the above cases.
-
When using according to the respective intended use, the fixing element of post head of the Multi
system can be used - released and then fixed again - safely so many times on the occasion of the
mandatory check before maintenance, inspection and use, until no tear of a filament on the wire
can be experienced and the clamping bolt can be operated as intended.

System installation and annual inspection information
8.1
System installation and annual inspection
-
For the commissioning of the system, the Service Manual and the handover protocol shall be
completed in compliance with the test criteria. The validating sticker shall be placed on the control
label.
-
The annual inspection shall be documented in writing. The test criteria and detailed information are
included in the Service Manual. Based on the international guidelines and the manufacturer
’
s
instructions, the inspection shall be performed without test load.
8.2
Information regarding required free fall height
To appropriately fulfil the fall arresting function of the system it is required to consider the correct free
fall height both for planning and before being put into service. To consider this, assistance is provided
by the respective existing provisions.
Warning!
The system cannot fulfil any fall arresting function if the free fall height does not reach the
minimum of 6.25 m height which is to be corrected with the displacement of the anchor point in
any case.
