Travsmart – Standard intermediate anchor

TRAVSMART – STANDARD INTERMEDIATE ANCHOR

With its original design, the Travsmart intermediate anchor allows each user to easily pass through the anchor point without the need to disconnect from the system. The intermediate anchors must be set up so that the maximum interval between anchors, from one end of the system to the other, never exceeds 50 ft. (15 m).

Depending on the type of mounting configuration used, the intermediate anchor may be installed, considering the 45° indentations on the bracket, to achieve optimum passage of the traveler.

For installation on the ground and posts the angle must be 90°, on a wall 135°.

The intermediate anchors consist of four parts:

• An intermediate piece
• A standard or overhead intermediate fixing bracket
• A HM12 x 45 mm (1⁄2 x 1-3⁄4 in.) bolt
• A locknut

FEATURES

• Material: copper-aluminum/aluminium (anchor) and stainless steel (hardware)
• Minimum breaking strength: 2,698 lb. (12 kN)
• Net weight: 1.3 lb. (591 g)

TRAVSMART – HORIZONTAL LIFELINE SYSTEM

The Travsmart is a single-line system that provides a smooth continuous travel along the entire length of the lifeline. It allows the traveler to move freely over the intermediate anchors, minimizing wear and eliminating user assistance. The user’s hands remain free to accomplish whatever task is required. Every user must wear shock absorbing lanyard with maximum arrest force of 900 lb. (4 kN).

The Travsmart is a permanent horizontal lifeline system that is easy to install and can allow up to three users for multiple span and two users for single span systems. It is a hands free system that does not require special tools to install. The system comes with a visual tension indicator and an in-line energy absorber.
