(22.2 KN) for non-certified anchorages. -Two times the maximum arrest force permitted when certification exists Compatibility: Connecting Component Limitations: A Competent Person must ensure the compatibility of all connections and that of the system.

  • Page 4: Inspection Frequency

    INSPECTION FREQUENCY: SRL-LEs shall be inspected by the authorized person or rescuer before each use. Inspection shall be conducted by a competent person other than the user. The competent person shall use Inspection Schedule and checking list for appropriate inspection intervals and procedures.
  • Page 5 Angle of Redirection: The angle of redirection is the angle of the lifeline over an edge during a fall event. Install the SRL so that the angle of the two parts of the lifeline are at least 90∘, or more, but never less. The lifeline must never rise up to the edge as it may bend the lifeline in too small a radius and/ or severely abrade, or otherwise compromise, the lifeline.

  • Page 9 If the user needs to expand the work zone to 12', the SRL must be anchored 15' above the Dorsal D-ring to remain in the allowed and cautionary areas. This change also indicates 4' of additional fall clearance to be added to Drawing 3. If the user cannot anchor the SRL above the Dorsal D-ring but still must expand the work zone, the SRL will need to be anchored with more than 5' of setback distance from the leading edge.
