DESCRIPCIÓN El Mini dispositivo autorretráctil doble/individual DuraTech™ de FallTech® de 6 pies (1,8 m) es una cuerda de salvamento auto-retráctil para personas que trabajan en alturas y están sujetas a peligros de caídas. El Mini dispositivo autorretráctil doble/individual DuraTech de 6 pies (1,8 m) Este manual contiene dos apéndices, el Apéndice A y el Apéndice B.
- Page 9 Los conectores deben ser compatibles en tamaño, forma y resistencia. Los mosquetones y ganchos de cierre y bloqueo automático son requeridos por ANSI Z359.12 y la OSHA. FallTech ofrece una amplia variedad de conectores para usar con el SRD de 6 pies (3,04 m).
- Page 10 La Tabla 4 ofrece los atributos de rendimiento típico de un Mini dispositivo autorretráctil doble/individual DuraTech de FallTech de 6 pies (1,8 m), para los trabajadores hasta un peso máximo total de 310 libras (140,6 kg), tanto para las conexiones de anclajes por encima del nivel de la cabeza o que no estén por encima del nivel de la cabeza.
- Page 11 D = Es el sub-total de A – C. Si el anclaje está directamente por encima del nivel de la cabeza, no hay un componente de caída con balanceo en este cálculo, y D es la MRFC sin una condición de caída con balanceo. E = Si existe una condición de caída con balanceo, el parámetro E se factoriza en la misma.
- Page 12 4.7 Indicador de impacto: El amortiguador es el indicador del impacto de la detención de caídas para esta unidad. Las costuras rotas, la expansión o ampliación del amortiguador es una indicación de que ha ocurrido un evento de caída. Si tiene alguna pregunta, póngase en contacto con FallTech.
