2.0 Description

This Full Body Harness (FBH) comprises the Body Wear component of your Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS).

This manual will discuss the various connection points with their specific application. When properly worn and

utilized, a FallTech® FBH will allow the user to work safely and comfortably. A FBH is part of a PFAS requiring a

properly rated anchorage and anchorage connector that uses a compatible connecting device

appropriate for the fall protection application.

2.1 Maximum Harness Rating:

The FallTech® FBHs are ANSI Z359.11, CSA Z259.10, and OSHA compliant. ANSI

user capacity is 310 lbs.(140.6 kg) including clothing, tools, etc., CSA user capacity is 350 lbs.(160 kg) including

clothing, tools, etc., and OSHA rated capacity is 425lbs (192.8 kg) including clothing, tools, etc.

FallTech® Full Body Harnesses are available in a wide variety of configurations to address the specific needs in

most workplaces. The suitability of a Full Body Harness for a specific application is determined primarily by the

type and location of the D-ring or D-rings on the FBH. See Figure 1 for a summary of the approved applications for

each D-ring located on a FBH.

If you have questions about whether this product is suitable for your application, please consult a competent

person or contact FallTech® for further advice.

Explanation

Class A

Fall Arrest

The dorsal D-ring is the attachment point is located on the back of your full

body harness (FBH). It is to be used for fall arrest or restraint only,

connecting devices for these applications include Energy Absorbing

Lanyards, Self-Retracting Lifelines, and Restraint lanyards.

Class P

Work

Positioning

Work positioning D-rings are located adjacent to each hip, the intended

use is with a positioning lanyard when positioning on a vertical surface (e.g.

tower applications, rebar tying, etc.). This system is a primary system and

should always be used in conjunction with a fall arrest system.

Class E

Rescue

Located on each shoulder of the FBH, these D-rings are intended for

confined space entry and retrieval. They can also be used in other rescue

applications where limited access is an issue.

Class D

Decent

May be located at the sternal position of the harness or have one or two

D-rings located below the waist (e.g. bosun’s chair).

Class L

Ladder

Climbing

Harnesses with a sternal D-ring can be attached to a vertical ladder

climbing system. The sternum location can be used in conjunction with a

ladder climbing device which allows for no more than a 9-inch (22.5 cm)

connection.

3.0 Application

3.1 Purpose:

The FallTech® FBH is designed for use as a component in a PFAS, to provide a combination of worker

mobility and fall protection as required for inspection work, general construction, maintenance work, oil

production, confined space work, or any application where fall protection is required.

3.2 Personal Fall Arrest System:

A PFAS is typically composed of an anchorage and a FBH, with an energy

absorbing connecting device, i.e., an EAL, an SRD, or a Fall Arrester Connecting Subsystem (FACSS), attached to the

dorsal D-ring of properly fitted and adjusted FBH. All uses and applications of a FBH with this equipment requires

the FBH to be properly fitted and adjusted to the user. Failure to properly fit the FBH to the user could result in

serious injury or death.

NOTE:

PFAS components used in conjunction with this FBH should comply with ANSI Z359/CSA Z259 and

applicable OSHA regulations.

3.3 Application Limits:

Take action to avoid moving machinery, sharp edges, abrasive surfaces, and thermal,

electrical and chemical hazards as contact may cause damage to fall protection equipment, or serious injury, or

death.

3.4 Approved Applications:

Figure 1 is a summary of the approved applications for each D-ring location on the

FBH. This list is not all-inclusive, but is intended to anticipate the most common applications in which this product

may be used. If you have questions about whether this product is suitable for your particular application, please

consult a competent person or contact FallTech®.
