PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Figure 1 illustrates the 3M™ Protecta Tripod. The Tripod is a single point anchorage connector for a personal fall arrest system
designed to be erected over the opening and meant to lower and raise the user into and out of the opening. The tripod is
constructed of lightweight tubular aluminum legs with an aluminum head assembly and steel chain. The tripod can be combined
with a variety of pulleys, winches and fall-arrest devices to meet a wide range of confined space entry, retrieval, and rescue
requirements. Quick release pins positively locate components at all adjustment points for tool-less setup and adjustment. The
Tripod can be used as a support structure for various types of safety devices. Some of these can mount directly to the anchor
point at the top of the tripod head, while others may require an adapter bracket.
Figure 2 illustrates components of the Tripod. See Table 1 for Component Specifications. The Tripod Hoist is comprised of three
Tubular Legs (C) with a Head Assembly (A) at the apex of the Tubular Legs. The Tubular Legs are grounded by padded Feet (B)
and the Legs are operable through manipulation of the Leg Adjustment Pins (F) and Locking Pins (D). Once set, the Legs are
secured using the Chain (G). The Eye Anchor Bolt (E) below the Head Assembly is used for installation of a winch or SRD for
rescue or retrieval purposes.
