TRACTEL - PHOENIX SHOCK-ABSORBING LANYARD
2018-04-18 13:31:19The Phoenix shock-absorbing lanyard is made of a 13⁄4 in. (45 mm) lightweight continuous web. The shock absorber is covered with a tubular polyester sleeve. When a fall occurs, the sudden stop caused by the fall arrest system submits the human body to a high impact force (the longer the free fall distance, the greater the force).
The purpose of the shock absorber is to lower the impact force experienced in a fall by dissipating the kinetic energy and controlling deceleration. The shock-absorbing device is made of a specially woven webbing that ellongates through tearing on its weave and stitching. This action limits the impact force to less than 900 lbs. (4 kN) for the E4 model and to less than 1,350 lbs. (6 kN) for the E6 model.
Designed for a 6 ft (1.8 m) maximum free fall.
