Eller AW170/LE 111 Instruction Manual

MAIN RULES WHILE WORKING WITH THE ENERGY ABSORBER
It is necessary to guarantee the minimum fall clearance below
the feet of the user, in order to arrest the fall before collision with
the structure or ground. The minimum fall clearance should be
ensured taking into consideration the minimum safety distance
from the lanyard/absorber anchorage point to the structure or
ground. The distance shall be calculated using below scheme
and Picture A.
Minimum safety distance= L + 1,75 m + 2 m + 1 m
L - the total working length of the energy with lanyard
including connectors
1,75 m - deployment of the energy absorber,
2 m - the distance between harness attachment point and
user's feet + harness stretch.
1 m - safety distance

Caution: The total length of the energy absorber with lanyard including terminations and connectors shall not exceed 2 m (e.g. connector plus
lanyard plus energy absorber plus connector).
CONSTRUCTION
AW170 energy absorber is made of 50 mm wide
webbing width 28 mm. The body of the absorber is protected by a special cover made of a heat shrinkable, polyethylene transparent tube. The
length of the lanyard is specyfied by order.

Periodic inspections
The energy absorber with lanyard must be inspected at least once every 12 months from the date of first use.
Periodic inspections must only be carried out by a competent person who has the knowledge and training required for personal protective equipment
periodic inspections. Depending upon the type and environment of work, inspections may be needed to be carried out more frequently than once every
12 months. Every periodic inspection must be recorded in the Identity Card of the equipment.
Maximum lifespan of the equipment
The maximum lifespan of the energy absorber with lanyard is 10 years from the date of manufacture.
The energy absorber with lanyard
inspection or there are any doubt as to its reliability.
ATTENTION: The energy absorber with lanyard maximum lifetime depends on the intensity of usage and the environment of usage. Using the lanyard in
