GUIDED-TYPE FALL ARRESTER

The fall arrester is quick and easy to use because of its absolute single-hand operation.
The dual locking mechanism is especially safe and prevents accidental unlocking of the fall arrester from the rope.
The spring-activated securing mechanisms always move the device back to its initial position.
Each shuttle is equipped with a durable absorber. This ensures more safety in case of stresses acted on the rope by other users in the event of a fall. Not using a textile shock absorber considerably reduces recurring costs for damaged or old absorbers.
An integrated mechanism prevents incorrect fastening of the shuttle to the rope (headfirst).
Made of stainless steel, the shuttle is corrosion-resistant and requires minimum maintenance. It has been designed such that repairing becomes easy and inexpensive.

STEEL CABLE

• Cable 8 mm, 7 x 19, stainless steel
• Cable 8 mm, 7 x 19, galvanized
• Cable 10 mm, 7 x 19, stainless steel
• Cable 10 mm, 7 x 19, galvanized

For the North American market:

• Cable 3/8", 7 x 19, stainless steel
• Cable 3/8", 7 x 19, galvanized

CABLE TENSIONER

Three functions are integrated in it. It is a:

• tensioner
• tension indicator
• expansion compensator

It is easy to install and can compensate the movements of the structure. Available in stainless and galvanized steel.
The shuttle is available with a swivel snap karabiner hook for the North American market and with a webbing loop for the British market.

INTERMEDIATE BRACKETS

Intermediate brackets hold the cable in position and prevent it from moving excessively because of the wind.

Manual brackets
In case of manual brackets - available for 8 or 10 mm ropes - the rope must be released from the clamping position before a shuttle passes through it. The rope must be clamped back in manual brackets at the respective positions before getting off from the system.
Manual brackets are cost-effective, light and can also be retrofitted.

Automatic brackets
Vi-Go shuttles can pass through automatic brackets without manual help.
The bracket must be installed by passing the rope through it.
Its biggest advantages are user comfort, quicker climbing and descending and highest levels of safety.

CABLE END PARTS

There are three alternatives to choose from:

Cable thimble
A cable thimble can only be used for the upper end. The exact rope length must be specified at the time of ordering. It is available for 8 as well as 10 mm steel cables. Special advantages are the saving of component costs and time during assembly.

Cable sling
A cable sling can be used for both ends. The rope length is variable. Components are available for 8 as well as 10 mm steel cables. In addition to the money it saves, this variant also proves to be extremely flexible during installation.

Pluggable rope ends
This solution, available for all cable types, is especially sophisticated and quick and yet sufficiently flexible. It requires minimal time for installation.

UNIVERSAL CLAMP

Available in stainless or galvanized steel, serves as cable fixing. Cable end parts are hung here. Rope end parts are hung here.
A unique feature of the universal clamp is that it can be fastened to pipe structures of various diameters as well as angular or flat steel profiles depending on the assembly.

RUNG CLAMP

An alternative to the universal clamp; the rope can directly be fastened to the rungs of a ladder. It is also available in two different materials.
Various elongated holes at varying distances from each other make it possible for the rung clamp to be mounted on the most varied of ladders.

IDENTIFICATION PLATE: vertical cable system

The identification plate is prescribed in the standard and specifies the type of system, the approved fall arrester and the personal safety equipment to be used as well as the manufacturer.
