about the products

 

 

when using long Safety lines, there is a danger of a long fall. Fall arrester uses the safety rope to create the shortest connection possible between the attachment point an the Full body harness. Here we have to differentate between fixed, locking Fall arrester (also called come-alongs) lock on vertical or horizontal safety ropes and can only be moved in both directions by using the handgrip. Free moving Fall arrester work automatically, i.e. they follow the vertical safety ropes, as far as the person secured moves up or down. The free moving Fall arrester are equipped with a patend reverse brake (locking reverse brake), which makes it impossible to put the safety rope on in the wrong direction. The special version "F" in the free moving Fall arrester (type AH3F, AH4F) consists of an additional weight on the device that improves the motion characteristics on the safety rope.
