The Dentec fall arrest lanyard is a single polyester lanyard equipped with a Shock Pack energy absorber and 2 standard carabiners with double-locking action and a ¾ in (19 mm) throat opening. With a 1 in (25 mm) width, it can support a worker weighing 100 to 255 lb (45 to 115 kg), including clothing, tools and equipment. It is the ideal connector between a harness dorsal D-ring and an anchorage point for general work at heights.
Dentec Safety Specialists product code: 16L111601. This lanyard complies with CSA Z259.11-17 and ANSI Z359.13-13. It is available in a 6-foot version and fitted with certification labels at one end.
The energy absorber is designed to reduce the impact force of a fall below 675 lb (306 kg). During a fall, it deploys over a distance of 48 in (4 ft) to reduce the force experienced by the worker at arrest. Once the absorber has deployed, the lanyard and harness must be replaced: it is the sign that the equipment did its job and protected a life.
The two carabiners (hooks) are made of steel and are identical in size. They require a double unlocking action and meet ANSI Z359.1-2007, allowing them to withstand a force of 3600 lb (16 kN) without deforming. The carabiner closest to the energy absorber must be connected to the harness dorsal D-ring.
This single lanyard combines ease of installation, durability and compliance with Canadian and American standards.
The anchorage point should preferably be located above the level of the harness dorsal D-ring and positioned vertically relative to the user. The user must assess the risks of a potential fall: is there enough clear distance free of obstacles below the worker? Are emergency measures in place to recover the worker quickly? Can the anchorage point withstand a force of 5000 lb? For more information, consult the manufacturer's manual.
The worker is responsible for performing a routine inspection before each use. The worker must note any sign of degradation, wear, malfunction or breakage, and replace the lanyard at the first sign of failure. This lanyard should also be inspected periodically by a qualified person other than the worker (from every 90 days to yearly depending on the manufacturer and conditions). The recommended lifetime of a lanyard is 5 years. Any equipment that has withstood a fall or an impact must be taken out of service. Sylprotec offers a lanyard and harness inspection service; to learn more, see the Services tab.
For cleaning, use a mild soap and lukewarm water (37 °C). Do not use bleach or abrasive or chemical products. If your lanyard is too dirty or contaminated, it is time to replace it. Air dry, without excessive heat, in a clean environment. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight and to any source of contamination.
It deploys during a fall to reduce the arrest force experienced by the worker below 675 lb. Once deployed, the lanyard and harness assembly must be taken out of service.
Two standard steel carabiners with double unlocking action, a ¾ in opening, compliant with ANSI Z359.1-2007 and resistant to 3600 lb. The one closest to the absorber attaches to the harness dorsal D-ring.
It suits a worker with a total weight of 100 to 255 lb (45 to 115 kg), including clothing, tools and equipment.
To complete your fall protection, also consider a self-locking carabiner (FPAM88), an anchorage sling (FPAE), a fixed anchorage point (FPA822), a concrete connector (FPAF075N), a Koala harness with quick buckles (FPH02474A), a Koala harness with grommets (FPH33102A), a Koala harness with pass-thru buckles (FPH33101A) and a storage bag (FPBAG).
