Travsafe® – Horizontal lifeline system

TRAVSAFE^® – HORIZONTAL LIFELINE SYSTEM

The Travsafe^® horizontal lifeline system provides a permanent engineered solution for fall protection needs. These permanent systems are designed and installed by Tractel^® certified representatives and have custom designed solutions to meet the site-specific requirements. Travsafe^® is a hands-free system that allows up to three users (maximum, if conditions allow) simultaneously. The system can be designed to allow unhindered travel for unlimited distances with out the need to disconnect and reconnect at the intermediate anchors. Every user must wear shock absorbing lanyard with maximum arrest force of 900 lb. (4 kN).

The Travsafe^® twin wire rope horizontal lifeline system provides smoother travel compared to single line systems. The twin wire ropes allow the traveller to sit true and move freely over the intermediate anchors, minimizing wear and eliminating user assistance. The user’s hands remain free to accomplish whatever task is required.

FEATURES

• The twin lines ensure smooth hands-free travel over anchors and around corners
• When a fall occurs, the traveller’s jaws close tightly around the wires
• The Travsafe^® system contains relatively few components when compared to other systems
• The system can be supplied with stainless steel anchors and stainless steel or galvanized wire rope
• The system can be secured to walls, floors or ceilings
• The system has a large tolerance for curves
• Anchors can be offset and travel remains smooth
• When properly designed and installed, the system meets all OSHA, ANSI and CSA requirements
