Safetop MAXIROLL 10 m is a retractable cable fall arresteR

Safetop MAXIROLL 10 m is a retractable steel cable fall arrester (PPE) designed for personal fall protection systems. The device is tested for both horizontal and vertical use and is suitable for construction sites, industrial maintenance, steel structures, telecommunications work and scaffolding where workers move between work positions and require continuous fall protection.

Safetop MAXIROLL retractable fall arrester 10 m – suitable for horizontal and vertical use.

General Information

The purpose of the retractable cable fall arrester is to stop a fall and allow controlled movement within a working distance of up to 10 meters. The cable automatically retracts into the housing and remains under light tension as the user moves. In the event of a fall the internal locking and braking mechanism stops the cable immediately.

When designing a fall protection system it is essential to ensure sufficient fall clearance and adequate anchor strength.

Benefits Compared to Similar Products

• 10 m working length suitable for medium-height work environments.
• The 4.8 mm galvanized steel cable withstands mechanical stress better than textile alternatives.
• The swivel connector reduces cable twisting during movement.
• The same device can be used for both horizontal and vertical work.

Intended Use

Suitable for construction, industrial maintenance, roofing, telecommunications work and steel structures where retractable fall protection is required and workers move between work points. The device must be used as part of a personal fall protection system together with EN 361 full body harnesses and EN 362 connectors.

The device is not suitable for situations where the cable may be loaded over sharp edges without specific edge approval or where the anchor point does not meet fall protection requirements.

Inspection and Service Life

The service life of the Safetop Maxiroll retractable cable fall arrester is not limited to a fixed number of years. Service life depends on operating conditions, loading, storage and regular inspections.

Service Life

• The service life is not limited to a fixed number of years.
• Service life depends on usage conditions, storage and inspections.
• The device must be removed from service if wear, corrosion or malfunction is detected.
• If the device has arrested a fall it must be removed from service and inspected.

Routine Checks

• The user must perform a visual inspection before each use.
• Check markings, housing condition, connectors and screws.
• The cable must be inspected along its entire length for wear, broken strands or corrosion.
• The braking mechanism must be tested by pulling the cable sharply.

Annual Inspection

• An inspection is recommended at least once per year.
• The inspection can be performed as a visual inspection by a competent PPE inspector.
• The inspector should have appropriate fall protection inspection training, for example certification from the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health (TTL) or equivalent.
• The inspection includes the cable, housing, connectors, markings and locking/retraction mechanism.
• The inspection result should be recorded in the equipment inspection log.
