Horizontal arrest function:
If excessive horizontal tensile force is applied when climbing due to the
toppling of the user, the safety mechanism triggers a braking process.
This prevents the toppling of the user and he is held at an angle of ap-
prox. 45° to the rail. The climbing position can be reached again at any
time from this position. The limitation of the horizontal tensile force is
designed such that normal climbing is possible. Sudden pulling can trig-
ger a braking process. Briefly releasing the fall protection runner allows
the safety mechanism to reset, and the fall protection runner is immedi-
ately ready for use once more.
Speed-related arrest function:
During use of the fall protection runner the speed is queried constantly
via a friction wheel. If the fall protection runner is moving too quickly or
suddenly on the fall arrest rail, the speed-related brake triggers a braking
process. The trigger point is designed so that normal climbing is possible.
Briefly releasing the fall protection runner allows the safety mechanism
to reset, and the fall protection runner is immediately ready for use once
more.
The green cushioning element in the carabiner hook returns to its origi-
nal shape after impact load. It does not tear open and break in the same
way as a shock absorber or deforming element to absorb the impact
force. The advantage of this is that the connection between the user
and the fall protection runner is not unfavourably elongated. The elon-
gating of the fastener has a negative effect on safety and makes it more
likely that the user will be knocked over.
After triggering and releasing, all safety systems are immediately avail-
able and fully functional again. There is complete and ideal protection
against a further fall into the fall protection runner, as might occur dur-
ing rescue measures or due to the physical condition of the user, for ex-
ample.
The function of this range is guaranteed up to a maximum back-leaning
angle of 15° and maximum side-leaning angle of 20°.
