Safety lanyard | Webbing | ATEX

On paper, this Safety lanyard looks identical to non-ATEX Safety lanyards. However, the plus point for this design is the use of polyester with anti-static properties. This means that it should not produce potentially catastrophic sparks, making it safe to use in environments where even a small ignition could cause a disaster. For example, in petrochemical environments or mining.

Main features:

• Wide energy-absorbing lifeline: The 44 mm wide lifeline is made of polyamide and polyester with anti-static properties. It effectively absorbs the energy of a fall, reducing the impact on the body to less than 6 kN.
• Comfortable polyester Safety lanyard: The lanyard itself is made of polyester and has a width of 44 mm. This ensures a comfortable wearing experience even during prolonged use.
• Safe and reliable connectors: the Safety lanyard is equipped with two connectors:
  • 1 aluminium scaffolding hook with double action (opening 60 mm, ref. FA 50 208 60)
  • 1 aluminium carabiner with screw closure (opening 22 mm, ref. FA 50 103 22) These connectors are manufactured from high-quality aluminium and meet the strictest safety requirements.
• Antistatic properties: Both the line and the energy absorber have antistatic properties. This prevents electrostatic discharges that can be dangerous in explosive environments.
• Suitable for ATEX atmosphere (zone 1): The FREE BLAST is approved for use in ATEX atmosphere (zone 1), where there is a high risk of explosions.

How is the ATEX Safety lanyard constructed?

The Safety lanyard consists of the line itself, which is made of polyester with antistatic properties, at one end is an aluminium scaffolding hook (FA 250 208 60) and at the other end is an aluminium carabiner with screw closure (FA 50 103 22). The lifeline also contains an energy absorber, which reduces the impact of the fall to less than 6 kN. The lifeline complies with various standards guaranteeing safety, it also comes with a certificate.
