Webbing energy absorber ABSORBICA®

shock absorbing

ABSORBICA is a compact energy absorber, for use in combination with a JANE lanyard to make a fall arrest lanyard. Equipped with tear-webbing inside a zippered fabric pouch, the energy absorber is protected from abrasion while allowing for regular inspection. It has two options for installation on the harness according to the frequency of manipulation. • Designed for use in combination with a JANE lanyard to make a fall arrest lanyard with a maximum length of two meters • Absorbs energy in case of a fall: - tearing of the energy absorber webbing limits the impact force on the user - works with users who weigh between 50 and 130 kg - progressive tearing reduces the deceleration on lightweight users • Minimal bulk: compact to facilitate handling • Durable fabric pouch with opening system at each end, protects the energy absorber from abrasion or contaminants while allowing for regular inspection of the absorber • Two options for installation on the harness, depending on use: - frequent connection/disconnection: using either a carabiner that is held in correct position by the STRING positioning accessory (included with the absorber), or a MICRO SWIVEL to avoid tangling - semi-permanent connection: using either a RING OPEN gated ring whose circular shape ensures optimal positioning, or a SWIVEL OPEN to avoid tangling
