Use only back and front D rings of safety harness with other equipment
described in EN 363 ( Shock absorber, lanyard, fall arrest systems). These
points were marked with “
A
” in order to be recognized easily.)
* Fall Clearance ( Calculation of fall clearance distance ) Figure - 2
In case of possible fall from height , clearence distance should be
calculated as person would not hit any object or ground.
Fall Clearance
Fall clearance is the height at which a user must attach to an anchorage to
avoid contact with a lower level. In order to calculate required fall clearance
distance the following measurements must be kept in mind.
A :
Length of Fall Arrest System (Lanyard)
B :
Length of the Shock Absorber after a fall
C :
Height of Suspended User
D :
Safety Factor
5. Product Control and Validation
5.1 Before Each Use
Working at height equipment must be used as personalized. These products must
be controled on a regular basis before and after each use and findings must be
recorded into product control form. On an adequate lighted environment apply
following controls by lying the product down on a flat surface;
• Webbings should be checked for cuts, abrasions, color change, broken stitches
and undue stretching.
• Buckles should be checked for signs of wear, cracks, deformation, corrosion
or other damages. They should function correctly and smoothly.
• D Rings and other metal parts should be checked for signs of wear,
cracks, deformation, corrosion or other damage.
• Connectors should be checked for sign of wear, cracks, deformation, corrosion,
dirt. The gate and the locking mechanisms should work easily and without
any problem. The gate should open and close completely.
• Labels should be secure and legible.
During the controls if at least one of these deviation is found, usage of the
equipment should be suspended or retired and immediately send back to
producer for detailed inspection. No repair is allowed by unauthorised person.
Only manufacturer directions should be applied.
During the working at height if you need to use this product connected with
other systems, make sure that all pieces of equipment in the system are
correctly positioned and compatible with each other.
* Keep aware from sharp edges and surfaces. In case of contact with sharp
edges this may damage your product.
5.2 During Each Use
A user who has been incapacitated by an injury or medical condition and
who is suspended by the full body harness must be rescued immediately. So
you must always have a rescue plan for such emergency situations. Thus,
adequately trained personnel and rescue equipment must be present.
6.1 Rescue Plan
6.2 Anchor Point
6. Supplementary İnformation Regarding Standard; EN 365
The anchor point of the system comprises this product should preferably be
located above the user or should at least at the waist level of the user. An
attachment point below this level will cause a serious injury or death. The
anchor point must conform to the requirements of the EN 795 standard and
the minimum strength of 12 kN.
6.3 Various Situations
- A fall arrest harness is the only device allowed for supporting the body in
a fall arrest system.
- In a fall arrest system, it is essential to check the required clearance under
the user before each use, to avoid any collision with the ground or an obstacle
in case of a fall.
- Make sure that the anchor point is correctly positioned, in order to limit the
risk and the height of a fall.
- When using multiple pieces of equipment together, a dangerous situation
may occur if the safety function of one piece of equipment is affected by the
safety function of another piece of equipment.
- Users must be medically fit for activities at height. Warning, inert suspension
in a harness can result in serious injury or death.
