1.0 APPLICATIONS
1.1 PURPOSE: The Cabloc detachable cable sleeve is
designed to arrest the fall of personnel while climbing a
fixed ladder. The detachable cable sleeve is not intended
to be used for material handling.
NOTE:
The installer and user must ensure the ladder meets all applicable local, state, and federal standards, including ANSI A14.3.
1.2 LIMITATIONS: Cabloc detachable cable sleeves must be used with a PROTECTA approved ladder safety
system. Use only 3/8 inch (9.5mm) diameter solid core cable. In Canada, model no. AC350A for 5/16 inch
(8mm) cable is also available. The Cabloc cable sleeve must be directly connected to an approved full body
harness with an 2000115 carabiner, (included with the Cabloc sleeve). See Figure 1. Do not use connection
devices other than the 2000115 carabiner.
NOTE:
ANSI A14.3 and OSHA 1926.1053 states that the length of connection between the carrier cable and attachment point on the
full body harness must not exceed nine inches or 0.2m in Canada per CSA Z 259.2.2-98.
1.3 Refer to applicable local, state, and federal (OSHA) requirements governing this equipment for more
information on ladder safety systems and associated components, including OSHA 1910.27.
2.0 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
2.1 COMPATIBILITY OF COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS: This equipment is designed for use with
PROTECTA approved components and subsystems. The use of non-approved components and subsystems
may jeopardize compatibility of equipment, and could affect the safety and reliability of the complete
system. Contact PROTECTA if you have questions about compatibility of equipment.
WARNING:
Before using a Cabloc Ladder System in combination with a climb assist system, consult the climb assist system
manufacturer's instructions for any restrictions or limitations concerning simultaneous use of these systems. Capital Safety has
found that some connection combinations may interfere with proper operation of the Cabloc Detachable Sleeve and may result in
failure to arrest a fall. Avoid connecting the sleeve used on the Cabloc Ladder System into the same harness connection D-ring as is
occupied by the climb assist system. Ensure that movement of the arm of the Cabloc sleeve is not restricted or interfered with by the
climb assist system or its connectors. Failure to heed this warning may result in serious injury or death.
2.2 COMPATIBILITY OF CONNECTORS: Connectors used with this system (hooks, carabiners, D-rings) must
be capable of supporting a minimum of 5,000 lbs. Use caution to assure compatibility of hooks and the
connection point. Non-compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage (roll-out). Connectors must be
compatible in size, shape, and strength. All connectors used must be self closing/self locking connectors.
