Tractel J3666858 Travspring Tension Indicator

The Travspring® is a horizontal lifeline system that is easy to install and can allow up to five users. These systems can be permanent or temporary and no special training or tools are required to install. It comes with a visual tension indicator and a new in-line energy absorber. This in-line energy absorber look like a big spring hence the name Travspring®. This is a proximity horizontal lifeline system meaning that you must manipulate your lanyard when traversing
through anchor points.

As with all fall protection systems, a professional engineer or a qualified person must certify the design and installation of them. These systems can be mounted on the wall or on ground. They must not be used as an overhead system. When a fall occurs, the energy absorber deploys or un-winds acting as the visual indicator that something has happened.

Warnings: When using a horizontal lifeline as a fall arrest system, you must ensure that there is enough space below the walking/working surface to fall and not hit anything. Tractel® Ltd. can supply you with system deflection if you contact us. When used as a permanent installation the Travspring® horizontal lifeline system is an engineered designed system. This means that before any installation commences, a specific technical study of the site must be undertaken. This would include a shop drawing showing the system layout, general notes, connection details and expected loading. These shop drawings are to be reviewed by a professional engineer licensed to work in the state or province that the project is in. A site study may be required if drawings are not available to use when preparing these shop drawing. The shop drawings will also show the total fall height required if the system is designed for fall arrest. Tractel® Ltd. or the Tractel® Ltd. computer loading program will determine system loading. (Tractel® also recommends that similar steps be taken for temporary installations.)
