Falltech 8388 Hinged Trailing Fall Arrester

A personal fall arrest system is made up of a combination of fall protection components. The first component is the vertical lifeline (VLL), which is typically composed of a rope of various materials, lengths and end terminations. When a VLL is combined with connectors, a shock absorbing lanyard (SAL), a fall arrestor (rope grab) and a counter weight, it becomes a fall arrester connector subsystem (FACSS). A FACSS, combined with an anchorage and full body harness, form a personal fall arrest system (PFAS). This assembly of components and subsystems is what is used to arrest a person during a fall event.

• Anti-panic function provides the safest solution available for vertical rope attachment
• Hinged design allows user installation at any point on the lifeline
• Trailing mobility follows ascending and descending user with minimal effort
• Energy absorber features patented ViewPack cover with inspection window
• For use with 5/8 in diameter synthetic rope lifelines
• Includes alloy steel fall arrester for lifeline connection and snap hook for harness attachment
