Product Description

Petzl has five ASAP and ASAP LOCK kits that come pre-assembled with a mobile fall arrester, energy absorber, and connectors. These kits provide a ready-to-use personal fall arrest system that meets OHSA fall protection regulations and the ANSI Z359.15 standard when used with RAY 11 lifelines (available with or without a sewn termination, sold separately).

Working Principle
The ASAP or ASAP LOCK mobile fall arrester is installed on a lifeline, such as a RAY rope, and follows the user as they move, whether on an inclined or vertical surface. In case of a slip or fall, the mobile fall arrester locks onto the RAY rope which arrests the user and stops the fall. The ASAP’SORBER provides energy absorption and limits the average arresting force to less than 900 pounds, in accordance with the ANSI standard.

Differences Between Kits
Depending on the working situation and intended use(s), there are a few important differences between the 5 kits that are important to keep in mind.

Mobile Fall Arrester (ASAP or ASAP LOCK):

ASAP: The ASAP is a simple mobile fall arrester appropriate for use on sloped roofs, in swing stages, on ladders and on vertical structures.

ASAP LOCK: The ASAP LOCK features an integrated locking function that allows the user to immobilize the device on the lifeline in order to reduce the potential fall distance. This function is also useful when working in windy environments, helping to keep tension in the lifeline. The connection arm makes the system drop-resistant when passing intermediate anchors.

Energy Absorber (ASAP’SORBER 20, 40, or AXESS):
The ASAP’SORBER energy absorbers allow the user to work at a distance from the rope, in order to protect it during certain work phases. Equipped with tear-webbing inside a pouch that opens on each end, the absorbers are protected from abrasion and allow for regular inspection.

ASAP’SORBER 20: A 20 cm energy absorber that provides a reduced fall distance and thus requires less clearance, designed for users up to 310 lbs.

ASAP’SORBER 40: A 40 cm energy absorber that allows the worker to be positioned at a greater distance from the lifeline, designed for users up to 310 lbs.

ASAP’SORBER AXESS: A 40 cm energy absorber that allows the worker to be positioned at a greater distance from the lifeline, designed for users up to 310 lbs and can be used for loads of up to 550 lbs. in two-person rescue situations.

Certifications
All 5 pre-assembled kits are certified to meet the ANSI Z359.15 standard (Safety Requirements for Single Anchor Lifelines and Fall Arresters) and OSHA fall protection regulations. A RAY 11 lifeline, with or without a sewn termination, is required to meet these requirements and is sold separately.
