Details
Working Principle
The ASAP or ASAP LOCK mobile fall arrester is installed on a lifeline, such as a RAY rope, and follows the user as they move, whether on an inclined or vertical surface. In case of a slip or fall, the mobile fall arrester locks onto the RAY rope which arrests the user and stops the fall. The ASAP’SORBER provides energy absorption and limits the average arresting force to less than 900 pounds, in accordance with the ANSI standard.
Mobile Fall Arrester (ASAP LOCK):
The ASAP LOCK features an integrated locking function that allows the user to immobilize the device on the lifeline in order to reduce the potential fall distance. This function is also useful when working in windy environments, helping to keep tension in the lifeline. The connection arm makes the system drop-resistant when passing intermediate anchors.
Energy Absorber (AXESS):
The ASAP’SORBER energy absorbers allow the user to work at a distance from the rope, in order to protect it during certain work phases. Equipped with tear-webbing inside a pouch that opens on each end, the absorbers are protected from abrasion and allow for regular inspection.
A 40 cm energy absorber that allows the worker to be positioned at a greater distance from the lifeline, designed for users up to 310 lbs. and can be used for loads of up to 550 lbs. in two-person rescue situations.
Certifications
The Pre-assembled kit is certified to meet the ANSI Z359.15 standard (Safety Requirements for Single Anchor Lifelines and Fall Arresters) and OSHA fall protection regulations. A RAY 11 lifeline, with or without a sewn termination, is required to meet these requirements and is sold separately.
