Safety arch with chest belt and harness
[10.K]
N
Every time before using the safety arch with harness a visual examination of the system has
to done (examination for damages and wear). Especially the rope, the harness and all links
like the snap hook and the rope brake have to be checked.
N
All wearing parts of the system (rope, harness and all links like the snap hook and the rope
brake) have to be changed immediately in case of any damages or wear. At least every two
years all wearing parts have to be changed.
Indispensable accessory for stress testing, accident
prevention and for the general safety of athletes: The
safety arch with chest belt and harness. Automatic stop of
the running belt in the moment a fall occurs. The chest
belt secures the subject and prevents falling over to the
front. The h/p/cosmos safety arch is available for all
h/p/cosmos running machines.
The chest belt is connected via harness with the
emergency stop at the crossbar of the safety arch. If
there is more than 8 kg / 17.6 lb traction pulling on the
harness, the switch will stop the running belt immediately.
The length of the harness is individually adjustable.
Nevertheless the risk of injuries is minimized drastically compared to a fall at systems without the arch and compared
with falls outdoors. The maximum body weight is 140 kg / 309 lbs.
The ceiling height should be at least 2.46m / 97.6 inches (0 % elevation) rsp. 2.57 / 101.6 inches (24 %) if used with
h/p/cosmos mercury and 2.51 / 96.5 inches (0 %) rsp. 2.68 m / 105.5 inches (max. elevation) if used with running
machines h/p/cosmos quasar or h/p/cosmos pulsar.

The chest belt straps do not pinch or restrict the athlete. The chestbelt has to be
put on with the h/p/cosmos logo at the front. The vertical belt (1), to attach the
carabiner, has to be put on below the shoulder
belts (2), facing the body, to unload the seem at
the joint (3). If the chestbelt is put on back to front
or inside out or twisted, a shearing strain can occur
at the joints and then lead to a loosening of the
joints.
Despite the fast stop of the running belt skin-abrasion at the legs might occur due
to the running out of the belt, because a fallen test person still touches running out
running belt for a few seconds.
