The ManSafe SRL range of products is unique—Latchways have totally re-engineered the method by which SRLs function, utilizing modern design and engineering principles, creating additional safety features. The major benefit is complete field serviceability reducing product downtime and ownership costs. Latchways re-engineering is based on a modular design allowing all units to be maintained on-site, without needing to be returned to a service center during their lifetime. On-site maintenance is possible due to a very simple stainless steel coil mechanism which absorbs the energy in the event of a fall—Constant Force. Also the 100% reliable Full Contact™ pawl locking mechanism creates an audible click which can be felt whilst in use indicating the system is working correctly. Serviceability is a key consideration when purchasing SRLs. The cable and hook assembly is traditionally the component seeing most wear, so all Latchways units have been developed to enable simple cable replacement in a matter of minutes. Furthermore, if a fall occurs, the energy absorber can easily be replaced, allowing the SRL to be safely returned back to service. Training for this and the other simple service techniques are available free of charge from Latchways avoiding complete factory rebuilds.
