FUSE redefines the
standards for guided type fall arresters. It is the only securing device
in the market for a payload of up to 140 kg that meets all applicable
standards in Europe and North America. From the first meter it moves
along the rope with unprecedented ease. This is achieved by a new,
sophisticated attachment at the lever arm.
The separation of the blocking mechanism and its speeddependent
activator – a patent application has been filed – improve the
reliability and safety of the device. The device reduces wear on the
rope, prevents tearing of the rope, and ensures the blocking can be
released without completely relieving the load. This is achieved by
waiving at a toothing of the clamping cam. If needed, clamping can be
activated by means of a practical lock function.
FUSE can be attached to and removed from the rope without separating
it from the carabiner. In connection with the light and compact DEFUSER
energy absorbers (S, L, or RESCUE S or RESCUE L ) the maximum arrest shock is 30 %
below the standard. Different absorber lengths and performance
parameters guarantee best handling – also for rescue operations and
horizontal application.
