1.0 APPLICATIONS
1.1 PUrPose: DBI-SALA self retracting lifelines (SRL's) are
components of a personal fall arrest system (PFAS). These
SRL's may be used where worker mobility and fall protection are
required.
fall ProtectIon: The SLR is used as part of a complete
personal fall arrest system. Personal fall arrest systems typically
include a full body harness, anchorage connector, and SRL.
1.2 lIMItatIons
D. caPacItY: The SRL is designed for use by persons with a
combined weight (clothing, tools) of no more than 310 lbs.
(141 kg). No more than one person may be connected to the
SRL at any time.

slowly shifting material (sand or grain), or on a low pitched
roof may not allow sufficient lock-up speed to arrest a fall. A
