Durable and inspectable construction
The robust glass-fibre-reinforced polyamide casing protects the internal mechanism and supports a long service life when the device is used, stored and maintained according to the manufacturer's instructions. A carrying handle makes the unit easier to move, while the removable inspection panel provides access to the internal locking mechanism without fully dismantling the casing.
Applications
The HELIXON-S is suitable for use as part of a compatible fall-protection system in roofing, construction, industrial and maintenance work. Its horizontal-use capability and PPE-R/11.060 sharp-edge approval support applications where the wire rope may pass close to a structural edge. The working environment, anchorage and required fall clearance must always be assessed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Annual inspection
The fall arrester must undergo a periodic inspection at least once every 12 months in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The inspection may be completed by a competent person who is familiar with the product and its inspection requirements and holds any authorisation required by the manufacturer or importer. The removable inspection panel facilitates inspection of the locking mechanism, springs and other internal components.
Safety and compliance
This product is Category III PPE and complies with EN 360:2023. Horizontal use and work near sharp edges have been tested in accordance with PPE-R/11.060. The device has a minimum breaking strength exceeding 12 kN.
