Fall Arrest Systems: Your Safety at Height
Do you work at height? Protect yourself with fall arrest systems.
Working at height always involves risks, but with the right fall arrest systems you can carry out your tasks safely and with peace of mind. These systems represent a fundamental innovation in the prevention of fall injuries, ensuring maximum protection for those who work at heights.
How do fall arrest systems work?
A complete fall arrest system is composed of several elements that work together to stop a fall safely:
- Anchor: A solid and secure attachment point to the structure, capable of supporting the weight of the worker in the event of a fall.
- Harness: A harness worn by the worker that distributes the fall arrest forces throughout the body.
- Connection device: An element that connects the harness to the anchorage, such as a lanyard, rope or retractable system.
- Energy damping components: Devices that absorb energy kinetics of the fall, reducing the impact on the worker's body.
Types of fall arrest systems:
There are different types of fall arrest systems, each with specific characteristics to adapt to different work needs:
- Lanyard systems: Made up of a flexible lanyard and a fall arrest device, ideal for work in confined vertical spaces.
- Cable systems: Equipped with a metal or Kevlar cable and a sliding trolley, suitable for work on horizontal structures or with limited movement.
- Retractable systems: They integrate an automatic rewinding mechanism for the lanyard or cable, ensuring freedom of movement and safety.
- Guided systems: They run along a fixed lifeline installed on the structure, offering maximum protection and ease of movement.
Choosing the right fall arrest system:
Choosing the most suitable fall arrest system depends on several factors, including:
- Working height: The higher the height, the greater the energy damping capacity of the system must be.
- Risk of falling: Assess the probability and severity of a potential fall.
- Type of work: Consider the activities to be performed and the movements required.
- Comfort and ergonomics: Choose a system that is comfortable to wear and that does not restrict freedom of movement.
