Final tightening &
system tagging
It is important that all installed systems are fitted with a certification tag at
the point of access, similar to the tag shown opposite. Conforming to BS EN
365:2004
The certification tag should include the following information to support the
more detailed O&M Manual:
n
Contract number/name so that the system can be identified
n
System type- Restraint/Arrest
n
PPE Requirements for the user to use the system safely & correctly
n
No. of persons the system is designed for
n
Maximum lanyard length- imperative in work restraint systems
n
Installation date
n
Recertification/inspection due by date
If the recertification date has lapsed, the system
should not be used
until a
recognised/approved Soter installer has recertified the system as fit for use.
Systems are required under EN795 to be recertified annually.

Finally, all system components should be fully tightened down to each post, and a final walk of the system
should be performed ensuring everything is secure and nothing has been missed.
