Lanyard is one of the occupational safety equipment used in many sectors in Turkey, from high-rise working areas to mountaineering sector. It is specially used and reduces the impact of impact force by absorbing energy at the moment of fall. It can be used together with carbine varieties. According to their model, lanyards are divided into two groups:
- One-armed lanyard
- Double arm lanyard
Double arm lanyard model is used at heights of 6 meters or above. There are also uses with or without shock absorbers. When people working high up in the construction industry use a lanyard with double arms and shock absorbers, their safety is one hundred percent ensured. As of the Lanyard model, it is protected by columns. Columns retain suture areas. In models used with shock absorbers, shock absorbers are stored in a zipper.
Use Of Lanyard
Lanyard is a personal safety equipment. The model is selected according to the weight of the user. People who are located in Lanyard Turkey and work in the high zone receive training before use. Each company must provide this training.
Occupational safety equipment must be used and installed according to the operating instructions. The zipper where the shock absorber is hidden can be controlled by opening at any time. Velcro parts protecting the columns are also designed to open and close. After use, each region should be checked in turn.
If a fall occurs while working high, the lanyard team absorbs energy. In this way, if the fall is completed, it prevents severe injuries and even loss of life. For this reason, its use is mandatory.
Lanyard Shock Absorber
Lanyard products are connected with carabiners. Carabiners with a wide mouth are found at both the head and end, and this is how the connection is provided. Special types of fabrics have been sewn here in case the places provided by the connection with carabiners wear out over time. In this way, abrasions are prevented.
Each area of the equipment is considered separately and designed to ensure complete safety. The standard length of Lanyard arches varies from 1.2 meters to 2 meters. Length can be changed according to requirement. The columns protecting the lanyards have a solid structure.
The protection rights of high-rise workers are established and protected by law.
