Placement Inside A Harness Rescue System Container; Compatibility Test - Kortel Design Krisis Karré 100 Mode D'emploi

Rev. 5
Depending on the harness design, the rescue system can alternatively also be
attached to the main carabiner. When using Soft Links, it is very important to consider
the respective installation instructions by the manufacturer according to which the
rescue system can be installed either at the side or at the chest strap of the harness
by means of screw chain links (e.g., item no. Be29) and the webbings at the outer
container.
Follow the instructions from your harness manual and attach the rescue system
container at the suspension points as described. Make sure to check the container for
a firm and secure fit. Also, it should not interfere with moving parts such as a speed
system, webbings running through, etc.

17. Placement inside a harness rescue system container

Follow the instructions from your harness manual to place your rescue system inside
the container. Additionally, the following ponints must be strictly adhered to:
• Only use the original release handle that is delivered with the harness. Other
release handles must not be used as they do not guarantee faultless operation.
• The container must have a suitable volume.
• When using an inner container with asymmetric attachment loop, it must be
placed inside the harness container in such a way that the attachment loop remains as
close as possible to the release handle and that the rescue system does not get
twisted during deployment.
• When placing the rescue system insude the harness container, it is absolutely
necessary to make sure the connection between release handle and safety splint is
shorter than the connection between release handle and inner container
• Install the release handle at the intended position in such a way that the
connecting line is not under tension and the safety splint is not pulled out of the
closing loop
• After each packing, a test deployment must be carried out to ensure the proper
operation of the rescue system! Deployment from the flying position must be possible
without any difficulty and according to the specifications of the manufacturer.

18. Compatibility test

Each new combination of a rescue system and a harness must be tested for
compatibility in a k-test by an authorised person after the first packing.
Deployment from the flying position must be possible without any difficulty and
according to the specifications of the manufacturer. The release force should thereby
not exceed 70 N and the inner container should deploy easily from the integrated or
externally attached outer harness container.
The tester has to confirm test execution in the packing and inspection record.
