Retractable anti-fall device with polymer casing and galvanized steel cable and resistance 12 kN OLYMPE KRATOS SAFETY

The retractable fall arrester OLYMPE from Kratos Safety is a robust and reliable solution for work at height that requires a great reach. Its galvanized steel cable, with a breaking strength of over 12 kN, offers the user a wide range of movement, allowing access to elevated work points without compromising safety.

The high-strength polymer housing protects the internal components and ensures a long service life for the equipment. The integrated braking system ensures a smooth and controlled stop in the event of a fall, minimizing the risk of injury. Additionally, its ergonomic and lightweight design makes it easy to transport and use. This fall arrester is ideal for construction work, industrial maintenance, and any other activity that requires safe movement at height.

STANDARDS

- EN360:2002: A retractable fall arrester is a device equipped with a harness (made of cable or strap) that is constantly kept under tension, following the movements of users. The system automatically locks and immobilizes in the event of a user fall. They come in various lengths. Breaking strength > 12 kN (cable harness) or > 15 kN (textile harness).

USAGE

It should only be used in work that requires significant movement.

HOW TO CHOOSE

The choice of fall arrester should be based on the movements that need to be made. Obviously, when choosing the fall arrest system, the position of the anchoring point should be considered.

If the movement is purely vertical (along a ladder, for example), a sliding fall arrester on a safety support should always be favored. They have the advantage of being able to be installed (some of them) permanently on the structure.

If the movements can be horizontal and vertical, an automatic retractable fall arrester should be prioritized. This is the fall arrester that provides the greatest freedom of movement.

Sliding fall arresters should always be used vertically from the anchoring point.

Automatic retractable fall arresters are particularly suitable for low-height work, as the locking is almost instantaneous, thus limiting the necessary free height.

For work on an inclined plane with a sliding fall arrester, it is necessary for the fall arrester to be equipped with a manual locking system.

APPLICATIONS

It can be used wherever the user needs great freedom of movement and has to navigate obstacles while remaining safe.

Fall arresters on safety supports are mainly used for the following professions:

• Work on poles
• Work on rocky walls
• Work on ski lifts
• Window cleaning
• Rope access technician
• Rescuer
• Roofer-sealing technician
• Antenna and telecommunications technician

Automatic retractable fall arresters will be more suitable for the following professions:

Facade work, on terraces, on scaffolding, on platforms, and in maintenance.
