12. fully to all instructions given by Protecta Applications These mechanical devices are known as Fall Arrest Devices or Self Retracting Lifelines SRL A fall arrest device has two main functions e To safely extend the working area where a harness with a 6 ft 1 8 m lanyard is inadequate To reduce the shock loading on the body by limiting the distance of the fall The fall arrest devices can be mobile with a device travelling on a steel lifeline fixed rail or rope or stationary with an extendable anchorage line which extends as the user moves away from the anchorage point and retracts as he moves towards the anchorage point All Protecta SRLs are automatic and allow hand and body freedom of movement IMPORTANT If you have any questions on the use Care or suitability of this equipment for your application contact Protecta before proceeding CENTRIFUGAL FORCE By using centrifugal force Protecta devices ensure that should a fall occur the brake is instantly engaged Normal movement will not activate the braking mechanism and normal movement is not hindered as the lifeline extends and retracts freely Should the lifeline receive a sudden pull caused by the event of a fall the lifeline locks automatically Protecta devices avoid violent arrests associated with full body safety harnesses The mechanism will stop the user before excessive momentum is attained in a normal fall PURCHASE SELECTION It is important that th
