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.
- Only device in the market
that meets the standards EN 353-2, EN 12841-A, RfU 11.075, and ANSI
Z359.15 for a payload of up to 140 kg – approved for horizontal
applications
- Runs along incomparably smoothly from the first meter
- Separation
of the blocking mechanism and its speeddependent activator – a patent
application has been filed – improve reliability and safety
- Activation of the clamping cam at a speed exceeding 2 m/s
- Waiving at a
toothed clamping cam reduces wear on the rope, prevents tearing of the
rope, and ensures the blocking can be released without completely
relieving the load
- Integrated RFID chip for simplified operational documentation
- Arrest function facilitates taut belaying in the working position and prevents sagging of ropes when it is exposed to wind
- Easy attachment and detachment from the rope without separation from the Carabiner
- Use of DEFUSER energy absorbers reduces the arrest shock to 30 % below the standard
- For a rope diameter of 10 to 12 mm
Edelrid DEFUSER RESCUE S 21cm
The compact energy
absorber can withstand user loads of up to 220 kg. The high load
capacity enables users to work with heavy equipment and offers an
additional reserve for rescue situations where users need to bear the
weight of the person in need of assistance on their own system. At 4 kN,
the maximum impact force is significantly lower than the legally
stipulated maximum of 6 kN. The window makes it possible to visually
check the intactness of the energy absorber at any time.
The specially designed DEFUSER energy absorbers type RESCUE S and RESCUE L
may be used exclusively with the guided-type fall arrester FUSE: They
are light, compact, and the maximum arrest shock is 30 % below the
standard.
