Designed to limit the peak impact force on the worker to less than 6 kN by deploying up to 1.75 m of tear-stitch webbing, supplied across Australia and New Zealand by ProfTek.Technical SpecificationsStandard: EN 355:2002 (energy absorbers)Peak arrest force: Less than 6 kN (compliance limit)Deployment length: Up to 1.75 m of tear stitchingForms: Standalone absorber, integrated lanyard, forked (Y) lanyard, elasticated webbingOne-time use: Energy absorbers that have deployed must be retired immediatelyCritical Use NotesAn energy absorber that has activated cannot be reused, even partial deployment retires the unit.
