SafeAccess fall arrest rail system

SafeAccess from Fallprotec is a rigid rail fall arrest system for demanding industrial environments. When installed overhead, the low deflection results in a shorter fall distance, making the system particularly suitable where available clearance height is limited.

SafeAccess is manufactured from aluminium 6060 T6 and has a powder-coated finish adapted for marine environments. The system is ATEX-certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, such as within the petrochemical industry. The rail can be installed with spans of up to 6 metres and used by up to four people. SafeAccess can also be combined with Flexbow, a foldable support structure with integrated fall arrest for work at locations such as loading zones and machinery.

Areas of use

SafeAccess is used for fall arrest, fall restraint and work positioning in industrial environments. Typical applications include the maintenance of aircraft, buses, trams, underground trains, trains and production machinery, as well as the loading and unloading of lorries.

FAQ

When is SafeAccess a suitable fall protection system?

SafeAccess is particularly suitable for industrial workplaces where the fall protection is installed above the user and the available fall clearance is limited.

Can SafeAccess be used in potentially explosive atmospheres?

Yes. SafeAccess is ATEX certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and can therefore be used in, for example, petrochemical environments.

What is Flexbow?

Flexbow is a support structure that can be combined with SafeAccess to create overhead fall protection at, for example, loading bays and machinery. It has integrated fall arrest and can be folded away when the system is not in use.
