Ÿ Fall Clearance: There should be sufficient
clearance below the user to allow the system
to arrest a fall so as to prevent the user from
striking the ground or any other obstruction.
The clearance required is dependent upon
the following factors:
Ÿ Restraint: The strength requirement of anchorages which are selected for restraint and travel restraint systems
is min. of 1000 lbs. (4.5 kN) static load applied in the directions permitted by the system. If more than one restraint
and travel restraint system is attached to anchorage, then the 1000 lbs. shall be multiplied by the number of
systems attached to the anchorage to determine the min. strength requirement.
Arrest Systems (PFAS) shall be independent of any anchorage being used to support or suspend platforms. They
should be capable of withstanding a minimum load of 5000 lbs. (23 kN) per user attached, or should be designed,
installed and used as part of a complete PFAS which maintains a safety factor of at least two. Rating of the
anchorage should always be done under the supervision of a qualified person.
Ÿ Work Positioning: the structure to which the work positioning system (WPS) is attached must be able to sustain
a static load of min. 3000 lbs. (13.3 kN), applied in the directions permitted by the work positioning system. Or, it
should be able to sustain two times the potential impact load, whichever is greater; see 1926.502. However, if
more than one work positioning system is attached to an anchorage, then the strength mentioned above must be
multiplied by the number of WPS attached to the anchorage.
Ÿ Free Fall: As per ANSI Z359.1 the personal fall arrest systems used with this equipment must be rigged in such a
way that the free fall does not exceed 6 ft. (1.8 m), and as per ANSI Z359.13, the free fall should not exceed 12 ft.
Restraint systems must be rigged in such a way that no vertical free fall is possible. Work positioning systems are
required to be rigged in a way that the free fall
does not exceed 2 ft. (0.6 m). Personal riding
systems must be rigged so that there is no
vertical free fall possible. Climbing systems
must be rigged so that free fall is less than 18
inches (46 cm). Rescue systems must be
rigged in such a way that there is no vertical
free fall. Contact KStrong for any further
information needed.
GENERAL LIMITATIONS OF FALL ARREST SYSTEM AND REQUIREMENTS
Ÿ The KStrong cross arm straps are meant for use by ONE person only. The capacity of the KStrong cross arm
straps is up to 310 lbs. (140 kg) hence, the combined weight (clothes, tools, shoes etc.) of a person using this
equipment should not be more than 310 lbs. It is important to ensure that all the components in the system are
rated to a capacity which is appropriate to the application. Only one personal protective system should be
connected to an anchor at any point in time.
Ÿ Rescue: The minimum strength of the anchorage selected for rescue should be such that it is capable of
sustaining a static load of min. 3000 lbs. (13.3 kN) applied in the direction permitted by the system. To determine
the strength requirement of the anchorage if more than one rescue system is attached, then multiply 3000 lbs.
(13.3 kN) by the number of the systems attached to the anchorage.
It is important to consider the below mentioned limitations before using or installing this equipment.
