fall arrester
The BACK-UP is a fall arrester for a flexible anchor line developed for work at height fall protection systems.
Compatible with EN 1891 Type A ropes with diameters ranging from 10 to 12 mm. For optimal performance, the use of ropes with a diameter of 10.5 or 11 mm is recommended.

It features a selector lever that allows you to choose between two modes of use:
- free sliding along the rope in both directions
- upward sliding only, which allows the user to reduce the fall factor.
It may also be used as an ascender or as a rope clamp for rescue systems.

Supplied with an OVALONE CARBON ANSI connector, this version also complies with ANSI Z359.15. A special lanyard with fall indicator is also included in the package .
