New lifeline
November 1st 2009

Capital Safety has developed a self retracting lifeline: the Ultra-Lok RSQ SRL with Rescue. The model offers dual-mode operation that provides fall arrest and rescue/descent in one product; the worker selects either the traditional 'fall arrest' mode or a 'rescue/descent' prior to starting work.

If a fall occurs while the device is in fall arrest mode, a speed-sensing brake stops the fall, reducing the forces exerted on the user to safe levels. The fall arrest mode allows for assisted rescue to take place. This mode suits situations in which the user is working over dangerous objects or when the level below is over 15 m away.

If a fall occurs while the device is in rescue/descent mode, the speedsensing brake stops the free fall and a centrifugal brake instantly lowers the user at a controlled speed to a safe level.

This is ideal if the user is working alone or remotely, or where a rescue would be difficult, or if the next level below the worksite is within 15 m.
