An EN 795:1997 class C device is described
as an anchor employing a horizontal flexible
anchor line. It has been subjected to dynamic
tests using a non shock absorbing lanyard
and a 100kg mass in a 4m fall. The SpanSet
line has also been tested with a static load of
36kN without failure.
The following instructions are based upon use
by one person. SpanSet recommend this as
the preferred usage for the horizontal safety
line. It is possible however for the HSL to be
used by two persons, and in this case you
must refer to the specific notes opposite.
When using the HSL as part of a fall arrest
system, a full-body harness complying
