Function and description
The FABA™ climbing protection system
complies with standard EN 353-1. It will
be supplied as either a complete climbing
protection ladder (climbing protection
rails with rungs) or as a climbing pro-
tection rail for fi tting to existing ladders
or other manhole steps. The fall arrest
slider is an integral part of the climbing
protection system and together with the
climbing protection rails it forms a pak-
kage of fall arrest systems that safeguard
against falling. Each FABA™ fall arrest
slider has undergone, in conjunction with
suitable guide rails, EU proto type testing
at a registered certifi ca tion offi ce.
The FABA™ fall arrest slider runs in
the climbing protection rail profi le and
it accompanies the user, without any
manual intervention being necessary,
when going up or down and locks in place
automatically in the rail in the event of a
fall. In this case the locking mechanism
on the fall arrest slider locks into one of
the notches in the rail profi le and this
prevents the fall arrest slider from moving
downwards and this action saves the user
from falling.
