Vertical Fall Arrest Systems

Vertical Fall Arrest Systems

To secure the safety of people climbing up or down
VERTIcAL FALL ARREST Systems

Vertical fall arrest systems are used to secure people when moving up or down, e.g. when ascending or descending wind turbines, high-bay warehouses, chimneys or masts. The user can safely ascend and descend with our systems, without having to rehang from the intermediate anchors.

CLAWLINE

The CLAWLINE system from SKYLOTEC combines the highest level of safety during climbing and maximum flexibility during installation. The system is the state of the art in vertical fall protection and supports the user in safely climbing vertical objects. In addition, with the CLAWLINE, existing systems can be upgraded and retrofitted easily, flexibly and across manufacturers, and with a large number of configuration options, a solution is available for every case.

SKYTAC

The SKYTAC system provides uninterrupted safety when climbing ladders - without the hassle of re-hooking anchors. The ladder and climbing protection system, with its revolutionary SPEED and SPEED ATTACH fall arresters, secures the user at any height and can be used both indoors, such as in high-bay warehouses, and outdoors, such as on church towers. In addition, the arrester system can also be used to upgrade existing ladders and make them safer for users.

Over 300 different assembly variants

The vertical steel rope arrester system can be attached in no time at all to existing fixtures, regardless of the manufacturer – as required directly on the ladder. Likewise, existing upper and lower anchor points can be freely used and combined with each other as required. This results in over 300 different assembly variants. This means that you can adapt the system individually and flexibly to any location - and get it there. The individual components are packed in a space-saving way, are easy to transport and can be quickly assembled on site.

Certified for 8 to 10 mm stainless steel ropes

The CLAW LINE is certified according to EN 353-1:2014 + A1:2017 and is supplied with a stainless steel rope of 8 or 10 mm diameter. Also the rest of the system is made of V4A stainless steel and is therefore exceptionally durable. Particularly practical: Easily traversable intermediate anchors fix the rope in place and prevent disruptive deflections. This increases climbing comfort and user safety.

The risk simply locked

Speaking of user safety, we have further increased risk protection for you with the associated CLAW steel rope traveller. The runner is equipped with a locking pin that can be actively unlocked to prevent it from being put on and taken off incorrectly. In addition, the brake shoe opens with just a slight pull on the carabiner. In the event of a possible slip or fall, the carabiner swings down in a flash and stops the fall into the depths. A strap energy absorber reduces the impact force to well below the permissible 6 kN.

  • Increased climbing comfort: The rope can be easily released from the intermediate holder and easily passed over with the CLAW runner. Afterwards, the rope is simply clipped back in.
  • Easy installation: The modular system is almost self-explanatory for the installer.
  • Versatile: Offshore, nearshore, onshore - thanks to its consistent corrosion resistance, CLAW LINE is also the perfect arrester system here and never leaves you hanging.

World's only runner with two redundant safety systems and speed-dependent safety gear function

Experience the groundbreaking SPEED and SPEED ATTACH arrester runners - the world's first and only runners equipped with two redundant fall arrest systems and a speed-dependent fall arrest function.

Double safety: Our runners offer not one, but two safety catch systems, providing additional safety when needed.

Speed-dependent control: Your safety is our top priority. Our runners adapt to your speed to ensure optimal catch response.

Built-in safety: the hidden catch latch is protected from accidental contact, while the additional centrifugal brake provides another level of safety in the event of a back pull failure.

Increased climbing comfort: thanks to an additional lever, the SPEED acts like a back puller, shortening the catch distance. This not only means more comfort, but also a reduction in fall-related injuries.

Comfortable and fatigue-free climbing: Experience the difference of effortless climbing. Our dual guide rollers allow you to climb smoothly over rail joints, without resistance.

Comfort in every movement: With the choice of climbing protection or sternal attachment point, we make climbing comfortable and fatigue-free. You have the freedom to adopt the position that is most comfortable for you.

Reduction of misapplication: Our technology minimizes the risk of misapplication. This allows you to concentrate on the climb without worrying about correct application.

Quick and visual control

Your safety should be clear and simple. That's why our runners offer you an innovative solution: two fall indicators - one on the energy absorber and one on the carabiner. Clear color symbols indicate whether the runner is still ready for use or needs to be checked by a specialist.

instant clarity: the clear color icons give you quick feedback on the condition of your runner.

Protection and time saving: Thanks to this function, you never work with a runner that is not ready for use. At the same time, you save valuable time during the annual revision checks.

Versatile use due to compatibility with two different C-profiles

Discover the endless adaptability of our SPEED and SPEED ATTACH fall-arrester. These are compatible with the C-profile rails of the SKYTAC rail from SKYLOTEC or the SÖLL GlideLoc rail from HONEYWELL.

Flexibility: No matter which C-profile rail system you choose, our fall arresters adapt perfectly. One device for different requirements.

Automatic adjustment: The spring-loaded sensing roller ensures effortless adjustment to different profile thicknesses and ensures constant contact pressure.

Freedom of movement: safety harnesses with two attachment points open up a wide range of possibilities. You can attach the runner to the chest or hip eyelet for optimal comfort.

Our runners SPEED and SPEED ATTACH offer a flexible solution if your harness has two anchor points.

You can attach the runners to either the chest eyelet or the hip eyelet - whatever your preference.

This not only increases the climbing comfort, but also reduces the possibility of misapplication to a minimum.

Reduction of wrong applications

Our fall arrester set new standards in user safety. With a well thought-out design and double safeguarding, misapplications are reliably prevented. Your safety is our focus - this is reflected in every detail.

Secure locking: A green indicator always signals to you that the locking is secure. On the head side of the runner, another indicator shows whether the runner has been locked correctly.

Correct attachment: A locking bolt on the side prevents the runner from being inserted the wrong way around. This eliminates the possibility of incorrect installation.

Controlled unlocking: Unlocking requires simultaneous actuation of the slider and the control button - a measure that prevents accidental opening.

Safe use: The TRILOCK carabiner can only be opened by performing three different movements to prevent accidental opening during use.
