The safety arch with chest belt system is an indispensable accessory for stress testing, accident prevention and for the
general safety of athletes. The chest belt secures the subject and prevents falling forward. The chest belt is connected
via pull rope with the emergency stop at the crossbar of the safety arch. If a fall occurs (i.e. there is more than 10 kg
(17.6 lbs) traction pulling on the harness), the switch will stop the running belt immediately.
h/p/cosmos safety arch with chest belt system [cos10079], available for all h/p/cosmos running machines.
The ceiling height should be considered:
Series mercury: at least 2.46 m (97.6 inches) with 0 % elevation, 2.57 m (101.6 inches) with 25 % elevation
Series quasar/pulsar: at least 2.51 m (96.5 inches) with 0 % elevation, 2.68 m (105.5 inches) with max. elevation
Chest belt system XXS [cos14903-02-XXS]* for children
Chest belt system S [cos14903-02-S]*
Chest belt system M [cos14903-02-M]*
Chest belt system L [ cos14903-02-L]*
Chest belt system XL [cos14903-02-XL]*
* to be replaced every 6 months or earlier at the first sign of wear
The length of the rope should be adjusted so that the subject cannot use the rear 30% of the running deck.
Put on the chest belt so that the h/p/cosmos logo is at the front. In order to attach the carabiner, put the vertical belt (1)
below the shoulder belts (2), facing the body, thereby unloading the seam at the joint (3). If the chest belt is put on
backwards, inside out or twisted, a shearing strain may occur at the joints, which, in turn, may lead to loosening of the
joints.
In order to open the buckle press the fastener with thumb and index finger.
When a fall occurred and the running belt has stopped make sure you stand properly, then open the buckle.
In case the patient got unconscious the prescribed supervisory staff has to release the ascender that fixes the rope to
the safety arch.
Safety precautions and operation
N The maximum body weight is 210 kg (460 lbs)
N Despite the fast stop of the running belt, skin-abrasion on the legs might occur if the user contacts the running belt
when falling.
N Nevertheless, the risk of injuries is minimized drastically compared to a fall using no safety arch or compared to a
fall outdoors.
N The ceiling height should be considered:
h/p/cosmos mercury: at least 2.46 m (97.6 inches) with 0 % elevation, 2.57 m (101.6 inches) with 24 % elevation
h/p/cosmos quasar or h/p/cosmos pulsar: at least 2.51 m (96.5 inches) with 0 % elevation, 2.68 m (105.5 inches)
with max. elevation
