ABSORBICA®-I is a single lanyard with compact energy absorber designed for progression on a horizontal lifeline (rope or cable) or on an elevated platform, without passing intermediate anchors. It has several installation options on the harness and can be used with different types of connectors. It is available in two lengths: 80 or 150 cm versions (without connectors). The 150 cm version has an elasticized arm, to avoid hindering progression. Depending on the connectors used, ABSORBICA®-I is certified to American, European and Russian standards.
Description
Designed for progression on a horizontal lifeline (rope or cable) or on an elevated platform, without passing intermediate anchors
Absorbs energy in the event of a fall: - tearing of the energy absorber webbing limits the impact force on the user - works with users who weigh between 50 and 130 kg - progressive tearing reduces the deceleration on lightweight users
Minimal bulk: - compact energy absorber facilitates handling - FLEX version with 150 cm of elasticized webbing to avoid hindering progression
Durable fabric pouch with opening system at each end, protects the energy absorber from abrasion or contaminants while allowing for regular inspection of the absorber
Two options for installation on the harness, depending on use: - frequent connection/disconnection: with a carabiner held in correct position by the STRING positioning accessory (included with the lanyard) - semi-permanent connection: with a RING OPEN gated ring, whose circular shape ensures optimal positioning
Two connector options for the end of the lanyard: a locking carabiner, or MGO OPEN connector with large gate opening
Available in two lengths: 80 and 150 cm
