MAXIMUM LIFETIME
The AZ410 lanyard’s lifetime is
PERIODICAL INSPECTION
At least once a year (after every 12 months of use), the lanyard shall be subject to periodical inspection. The periodical inspection must
be carried out by a suitably qualified, competent person, responsible for the periodical inspections of protective equipment at the given
site. The periodical inspection can be carried out also by the manufacturer or his authorized representative. Every periodical inspection
must be recorded in the Identity Card of the equipment.
WITHDRAWAL FROM USE
The AZ410 lanyard shall be withdrawn from use and destroyed to avoid incidental reuse when:
!
It has been used to arrest a fall.
!
The lanyard shall be withdrawn from use by the person who is responsible for the protective equipment at the given site.
indefinite. The lanyard’s maximum lifetime depends on the intensity of usage and the environment of
usage. Using the lanyard in rough environment, marine environment, contact with sharp edges, exposure to extreme temperatures or
agressive substances, etc. can lead to the wthdrawal from use even after one use.
It fails to pass inspection. There are any doubt as to its reliability.
The AZ410 connecting lanyard can be used as:
!
a component of personal fall arrest equipment which is used as the temporary anchor device (tested to EN795 type B).
or
!
a component of personal fall arrest equipment as a lanyard (tested to EN354) in conjuction with energy absorber. Fall arrest system
consisted of energy absorber (complied with EN 355) connected to connecting lanyard AZ410 (complied with EN 354) attached
to the full body harness (complied with EN 361) and connected to the structural anchor point (complied with EN 795) can be used
as a basic personal protective equipment against falls from a height. T

When the anchor
device is used as part of a fall arrest system, the user has to be equipped with a
means of limiting the maximum dynamic forces exerted on
the user during the arrest of a fall to a maximum
of 6 kN.
he total length of
sub-system with a lanyard including an
energy absorber, terminations and connectors shall not exceed 2 m.

MARKING
!
!
in full body harness use only attaching points marked with big letter "A" to attach a fall arrest system.
!
the anchor device or anchor point for the fall arrest system should always be positioned, and the work carried out in such a way, as to minimise both the potential for falls and potential fall distance. The anchor
device/point should be placed above the position of the user . The shape and construction of the anchor device/point shall not allowed to self-acting disconnection of the equipment. Minimal static strength of the
anchor device/point is 12 kN.
I
t is recommended to use certified and marked structural anchor point complied with EN795.
!
it is obligatory to verify the free space required beneath the user at the workplace before each occasion of use the fall arrest system, so that, in the case of a fall, there will be no collision with the ground or other
obstacle in the fall path. The required value of the free space should be taken from instruction manual of used equipment.
!
there are many hazards that may affect the performance of the equipment and corresponding safety precautions that have to be observed during equipment utilization, especially:
- trailing or looping of lanyards or lifelines over sharp edges,
- any defects like cutting, abrasion, corrosion,
- climatic exposure,
- pendulum falls,
- extremes of temperature,
- chemical reagents,
- electrical conductivity.
!
personal protective equipment must be transported in the package (e.g.: bag made of moisture-proof textile or foil bag or cases made of steel or plastic) to protect it against damage or moisture.
!
the equipment can be cleaned without causing adverse effect on the materials in the manufacture of the equipment. For textile products use mild detergents for delicate fabrics, wash by hand or in a machine and
rinse in water. Plastic parts can be cleaned only with water. When the equipment becomes wet, either from being in use or when due cleaning, it shall be allowed to dry naturally, and shall be kept away from direct
heat. In metallic products some mechanic parts (spring, pin, hinge, etc.) can be regularly slightly lubricated to ensure better operation.
Other maintenance and cleaning procedures should be adhered to detailed instructions stated in the manual of the equipment.
!
personal protective equipment should be stored loosely packed, in a well-ventilated place, protected from direct light, ultraviolet degradation, damp environment, sharp edges, extreme temperatures and corrosive or
aggressive substances.
,
a full body harness is the only acceptable body holding device that can be used in a fall arrest system.
