Vaultex UB 2011 OUS Rope grab Fall Arrestor

Key specs: weight capacity 100 kg, maximum fall-arrest strength 25 kN, maximum working length 10 m, rope diameter 4 mm stainless steel, polyamide casing, included steel karabiner, swivel alloy steel snap hook, and conduit rope. Certification: CE 0082 and EN 360:2002.

It uses a durable polyamide casing to protect the rope and mechanism, a 4 mm stainless steel rope for strength and corrosion resistance, and includes a steel karabiner, swivel alloy steel snap hook, and conduit rope for secure attachment. Its design supports reliable fall arrest with rated capacity and standard certifications, contributing to safer height-working operations.

This device is suitable for various height-working scenarios such as construction, maintenance, inspection, window cleaning, telecom/mast work, and other tasks requiring fall protection along a rope system within a 10 m working length.

1) Identify a compatible anchor point and ensure it meets required load ratings. 2) Attach the device to the rope and position it correctly along the rope. 3) Connect the included steel karabiner to your harness and the device’s attachment point, ensuring the swivel hook is secured. 4) Set the working length up to 10 m and verify that the rope can move freely without twists. 5) Perform a functional test before starting work to confirm the arrest mechanism engages properly.

Always inspect the device and rope before each use for wear, corrosion, cracks, or deformation. Ensure the rope remains untwisted and free of knots. Do not use if the device or rope shows signs of damage. Use proper PPE, maintain a safe working position, avoid dynamic shocks to the rope, and follow your site’s fall-protection procedures.

Inspect before each use: check the polyamide casing, rope integrity (no fraying or corrosion on the stainless steel rope), fittings (karabiner, snap hook, conduit rope) for wear, and ensure the device moves freely along the rope. Periodically replace components if wear is detected or per your organization’s maintenance schedule. Store in a clean, dry place away from chemicals and direct sun.

The product is certified to CE 0082 and EN 360:2002, confirming compliance with established European safety requirements for fall-arrest devices and rope-access equipment.
