Petzl ASAP® Kit
Assembled ASAP + ASAP'SORBER 40cm/20cm + 2x BM'D + 2x CAPTIV
*RAY 11 lifeline required for compliance with ANSI Z359.15, (sold separately).
The ASAP kits are pre-assembled and ready-to-use personal fall arrest systems that meet OHSA fall protection regulations and the ANSI Z359.15 Safety Requirements for Single Anchor Lifelines and Fall Arresters standard when used with RAY 11 lifelines. Each kit comes with a mobile fall arrester, energy absorber, and connector(s).
Installed on a lifeline, these mobile fall arresters follow the user as they move, whether on an inclined or vertical surface. In case of a shock load or sudden acceleration, they lock onto the lifeline and stop the worker, even if grabbed during the fall.
MOBILE FALL ARRESTER
The ASAP is a simple mobile fall arrester appropriate for use on sloped roofs, in swing stages, on ladders and on vertical structures.
• Constant fall protection:
- Arrests falls, slides, and uncontrolled descents
- Works on vertical or angled rope
- Locks on the rope even if grabbed during the fall
• Simple to use, and effective:
- Moves up or down the rope, without any manual operation
- Easy to install and remove at any point on the rope
ENERGY ABSORBERS
• The ASAP’SORBER energy absorbers may only be used with an ASAP or ASAP LOCK mobile fall
arrester. They 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, while allowing for regular inspection.
There are two energy absorbers available for the ASAP Kit:
• ASAP’SORBER 20 provides a reduced fall distance and thus requires less clearance, designed for users up to 285 lbs.
• ASAP’SORBER 40 allows the worker to be positioned at a greater distance from the lifeline, designed for users up to 285 lbs.
CONNECTORS
• The Bm’D is a lightweight asymmetrical carabiner made of aluminum. It is a D-shape connector with a TRIACT-LOCK automatic locking system. The sleeve is reinforced for greater front and lateral gate strength.
• The CAPTIV positioning bar promotes loading of the carabiner on the major axis and limits the risk of rotation and keeps it well integrated with an ASAP’SORBER.
LIFELINES | Sold Separately
