SAFETY HARNESS
Ref.: AB 151 01
The safety harness is an element of personal fall arrest equipment and complies with
the EN 361 and EN 358 standards.
CONSTRUCTION
The safety harness is made of aramid belt sections properly sewn together and
connected by metal buckles. The resulting system provides full comfort and safety at
work.
EQUIPMENT
- back anchorage buckle with extension belt – designed to attach the connecting and
energy-absorbing component
- chest attachment loops – designed to attach the connecting and energy-absorbing
component
- work positioning belt
- adjustment and fastening buckles – for quick and easy putting on the harness and
for adjusting the length of all belts to the user's body shape.
PERIOD OF USE
The safety harness can be used for 5 years, counting from the date of putting the
device into operation. After 5 years of use the safety harness must be withdrawn
from use for a detailed manufacturer's inspection.
Such inspection can be conducted by:
- harness manufacturer;
- person authorized by the manufacturer;
- a company authorized by the manufacturer.
During the inspection a period of use for the safety harness until the next inspection
will be determined.
The safety harness must be withdrawn from use immediately and destroyed when it
has been used to arrest a fall.
SIZES
The safety harness is manufactured in two sizes:
-
Medium – M-XL
- Large - XXL

·
a full body harness
(conforming to EN 361)
is the only acceptable body holding device that can be used, in a fall arrest system.
·
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 1
2
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.
