Retractable
Lifelines

Retractable Lifelines can be used in a wide range of work situations where extra
mobility is required. Typically the mechanical device is anchored to an approved
overhead anchorage to eliminate interference with ladders and vertical work
surfaces. Care should be taken to address the "pendulum" or "swing"
action of the fall arrest when Retractable Lifelines are in use. All units have
a safe workload of 350 pounds. Retractable Lifelines feature an internal spring
mechanism that allows normal controlled movement away from the device. Any sudden
movement, accidental slip or fall activates the inertial brake system. It functions
much like a seat belt, once activated it stops the action of the fall. An energy
absorber is built into the braking system and will stop a fall in less than
one foot. Some Retractable Lifelines are equipped with built in retrieval systems
and are designed to be used in rescue situations. They are not to be used
as a winch. Once a unit has been used as a retrieval system, it must be
recertified.
