Description
Petzl Absorbica Compact Energy Absorber
NOT to be used with a Petzl ASAP. This Absorber is designed to be used in a lanyard combination only.
The Petzl Absorbica Compact is a tear-webbing energy absorber. The webbing is contained and protected by a pouch. Both ends are equipped with a rubber keeper (String) to hold the connector in position and protect the webbing from abrasion.
Detailed description
- Designed to be used in combination with a JANE-I or JANE-Y lanyard to make a fall-arrest lanyard with a maximum length of two meters
- Absorbs energy in the event of a fall:
- Progressive tearing of the energy absorber webbing limits the impact force on the user
- Works with users who weigh between 60 and 140 kg
- Minimal bulk: very compact design doesn’t hinder the user during progression
- Durable fabric pouch with a simple opening system protects the energy absorber from abrasion or contaminants while allowing for regular inspection of the absorber
- Two options for installation on the harness, depending on use:
- Frequent connection/disconnection: using either a carabiner held in the correct position by the STRING accessory (included with the absorber), or a MICRO SWIVEL to avoid tangling
- Semi-permanent connection: using either a RING OPEN gated ring whose circular shape allows optimal positioning, or a SWIVEL OPEN to avoid tangling
Specifications:
- Maximum authorized length (with connectors) 200 cm
- Maximum length of torn lanyard after fall 320 cm
- Maximum clearance (for fall factor 2) 620 cm
- Weight 115 g
- Guarantee 3 years
