Product Specific Applications

! WARNING
Personal Fall Arrest: 3-Way SRL may be used to support a MAXIMUM 1 Personal Fall Arrest System
(PFAS) for use in Fall Arrest applications. Structure must withstand loads applied in the directions
permitted by the system of at least 5,000 lbs. No free fall is permitted. Applicable D-ring: Dorsal.
Restraint: 3-Way SRL may be used in Restraint applications. Restraint systems prevent workers
from reaching the leading edge of a fall hazard. Always account for fully deployed length of
lanyard/SRL. Structure must withstand loads applied in the directions permitted by the system of
at least 1,000 lbs. No free fall is permitted. Restraint systems may only be used on surfaces with
slopes up to 4/12 (vertical/horizontal). Applicable D-rings: Dorsal, Chest, Side, Shoulder.
Rescue/Confined Space: 3-Way SRL may be used in Rescue/Confined Space applications. Rescue
systems function to safely recover a worker from a confined location or after exposed to a fall.
There are various configurations of Rescue systems depending on the type of rescue. Structure
must withstand loads applied in the directions permitted by the system of at least 3,000 lbs. No
free fall is permitted. Applicable D-rings: Dorsal, Chest, Shoulder.
(including all clothing, tools, and equipment) is 100-310 lbs.

Limitations

Fall Clearance: There must be sufficient
clearance below the anchorage connector
to arrest a fall before the user strikes the
ground or an obstruction. When calculating
fall clearance, account for a MINIMUM 2'
safety factor, deceleration distance, user
height, length of lanyard/SRL, and all other
applicable factors.
Diagram shown is an example fall
clearance calculation ONLY.
Swing Falls: Prior to installation or use, make
considerations for eliminating or minimizing
all swing fall hazards. Swing falls occur when
the anchor is not directly above the location
where a fall occurs. Always work as close to in
line with the anchor point as possible. Swing
falls significantly increase the likelihood of
serious injury or death in the event of a fall.
Use of equipment in unintended applications may result in serious
injury or death. Maximum 1 attachment per connection point.
For all applications: worker weight capacity range
Fall clearance calculation shown
based on standing worker falling
directly in-line with anchor point.
Always consider potential swing
fall and other hazards when
calculating fall clearance.
