A. DESCRIPTION
AC 012 is a guided-type fall arrester device on flexible anchorage guide.
The rope grab is sliding on ø14 mm polyester rope.
AC 012 is a component of personal protective equipment against falls from a height. AC 012 guided-type fall arrester
complies with EN 353-2.
The AC 012 is the protection for the one person only.
BASIC EQUIPMENT
Openable rope grab made of zinc plated steel.
!
Connector class B (certified according EN 362). The maximal length of the connector which can be used with AC012
!
rope grab is 130 mm.
Working rope (ø14 mm kernmantle polyester). The rope is ended with sewn loops equipped with thimbles.
!
Using the AC 012 fall arrester in connection with fall arrest system must be compatible with use instructions of the fall
arrest systems and obligatory standards:
- EN361 - for full body harness;
10
- EN362 - for connectors
- EN795 - for anchorages
- EN358 - for work positioning systems.

CONNECTING THE WORKING ROPE TO THE STRUCTURAL ANCHOR POINT
Attention! Structural anchor point should have static resistance min.12 kN. The shape of the structural anchor point
should not let self-acting disconnection of the rope It is recommended to use certified and marked structural anchor point
complied with EN 795.
F. INSTALLING THE ROPE GRAB ON THE WORKING ROPE
1. Press the button.
2. Unscrew the bolt.
3. Open the walls.
4. Put the rope inside the bend of the wall.
5. Close the walls.
6. Press the button.
7. Tighten up the screw. The walls should be closed and joined together.
8. Check the proper position of the rope grab on the rope: the arrow located on the device should be directed up to the
upper end of the working rope attached to structural anchor point.
G. REQUIRED FREE DISTANCE BELOW WORKING LEVEL
structural anchor point to which will be connected working rope should be situated above working position and should has
!
static resistance min. 12kN. Free distance below the working surface depends on the length of the working rope under
the worker - see the table and drawing A.
during horizontal moving of the worker, the working rope deflection from the vertical line up to 45 is allowed - see the
!
drawing B.
it is necessary to keep minimal clearance of 3,2 m below the feet of the user to avoid collision with the ground or any
!
construction in case of fall arresting. For the first meters the user may not be protected against hitting the ground
and extra care should be taken when ascending or descending.
