Possible applications for securing 2 persons against falling and for

rescuing in combination with the additional anchor point

IKAR-TypeDB-A3-Tinez-Workwear-Singing-Rock-Tripod-fig-
\(12\) Illus. 16:

  • One person enters a shaft, for example, fastened to a fall arresting device of type HRA and the latter‘s snap hook to the fall arrest eyelet of his safety harness (refer to instruction manual for the equipment). The safety supervisor has the option, for example, to use a fall arresting device in combination with a safety harness for fastening to the additional anchor point. Even during an emergency rescue, the safety supervisor is always protected against falling.
  • However, it is not possible to rule out the possibility of injury to the safety supervisor or damages to the personal safety equipment resulting from impact with edges or objects in the event of a fall into a shaft, for example.
