Engineered with a self-retracting lifeline (SRL), this unit offers a reliable solution for preventing serious injuries caused by falls from height.
Whether you’re in construction, telecommunications, oil and gas, wind energy, or industrial maintenance, this retractable fall arrester is the trusted safety partner you need to ensure compliance and protect your crew.
What Is a Retractable Fall Arrester?
A retractable fall arrester, also known as a self-retracting lifeline (SRL), is a type of fall protection equipment that automatically extends and retracts as the user moves. In the event of a sudden descent or fall, the built-in braking mechanism engages instantly, minimizing the distance the worker can fall and reducing the force of impact.
Our fall arrester is built to meet and exceed international safety standards such as EN 360 and OSHA guidelines, ensuring it’s suitable for high-risk work environments.
Key Features and Benefits
1. Self-Retracting Lifeline (SRL):
The lifeline automatically extends and retracts with user movement, allowing freedom of motion while keeping the line taut to prevent slack that could increase fall distance.
2. Fast-Acting Braking System:
The arrester features a high-speed locking mechanism that halts the fall within inches, dramatically reducing fall arrest forces and ensuring worker safety.
3. Rugged, Weather-Resistant Housing:
Encased in a durable, impact-resistant polymer or aluminum body, the unit is built to withstand harsh weather, dust, and debris on construction sites and industrial locations.
4. Swivel Top Connection:
A 360-degree swivel top prevents lifeline twisting and enhances worker mobility, particularly on complex structures like scaffolding or towers.
5. High-Tensile Lifeline Material:
Available with a galvanized steel or stainless steel cable, the lifeline offers exceptional strength and resistance to corrosion, extending the product’s life.
6. Lightweight & Portable:
Despite its heavy-duty build, this retractable fall arrester is designed for ease of transport and simple one-person setup, making it ideal for mobile crews and contractors.
7. Compatibility with PPE:
It easily connects to most standard fall protection harnesses and anchorage systems, making integration with existing fall protection equipment seamless.
