Description

  • Designed for progression on a horizontal lifeline (rope or cable) or on an elevated platform, without passing intermediate anchors
  • VARIO adjustment system allows the lanyard length to be adjusted from 100 to 150 cm in order to reduce potential fall height
  • Absorbs energy in the event of a fall:
    – Tearing of the energy absorber webbing limits the impact force on the user
    – Works with users who weigh between 50 and 140 kg (1)
    – Progressive tearing reduces the deceleration on lightweight users
  • Minimal bulk: compact energy absorber facilitates handling
  • Durable fabric pouch with opening system at each end, protects the energy absorber from abrasion or contaminants while allowing for regular inspection of the absorber
  • Two options for installation on the harness, depending on use:
    – Frequent connection/disconnection: with a carabiner held in correct position by the STRING positioning accessory (included with the lanyard)
    – Semi-permanent connection: with a RING OPEN gated ring, whose circular shape allows optimal positioning
  • Two connector options for the end of the lanyard: a locking carabiner or MGO OPEN connector with large gate opening(1) In compliance with maximum accepted fall distances More information in our technical tips at Petzl.com
