CSA Z259.2.2 requires type 2 SRLs (longer than 10 ft (3 m)) and type 3 SRLs (rescuer capability
included) be sent to a factory authorized entity for inspection and maintenance no more than 2 years
after the date of manufacture and annually thereafter. See SRL labels to determine whether it's a CSA
type 2 or 3 product.
Record formal inspections in the provided Inspection Log. Punch or indelibly mark the Inspection grid
attached to the SRL. Do not use an SRL with a formal inspection date older than twelve (12) months.
Tag SRLs with formal inspections that are out of date as "UNUSABLE" and remove from service until
after formal inspection. The safety of users depends upon the continued efficiency and durability of the
SRL. MSA recommends keeping a log of formal inspections for all components in a fall protection
system or subsystem.
