Diagram 5. EN 813: 1997 seat harness
Ventral attachment point
The EN 813: 1997 standard
concerns seat harnesses that
are used in work positioning,
restraint, and rope access
systems when a low attachment
point is necessary.
Use this ventral ring to attach a
descender, positioning lanyards
or progression lanyards.
This attachment point should
not be used to attach fall arrest
systems.

Compatibility: attachment points /
connectors
An incompatible connection can cause
accidental disconnection, breakage, or
affect the safety function of another piece of
equipment.
WARNING, the attachment points of your
harness can act as a lever on the gate of a
connector.
When a sudden tension comes onto the rope
and/or an external pressure on the locking
system, and the connector is poorly positioned,
the locking sleeve can break and the gate can
open itself.
To reduce this risk, check that your connectors
are properly positioned each time the system is
loaded (lanyard, descender, etc.).
Also make sure your connectors are compatible
with the attachment points (shape, size, etc.)
by avoiding the use of connectors showing a
tendency to position themselves incorrectly
(and stably) in the attachment points.

another piece of equipment.
Contact Petzl if you are uncertain about the
compatibility of your equipment.
Anchors: Work at height
The anchor point of the system should
preferably be located above the user's position
and must conform to the requirements of the
EN 795 standard, in particular the minimum
strength of the anchor must be 10 kN.
