System Compatibility - Honeywell Miller RA15-1 Instrucciones De Uso

Never use fall protection equipment for
purposes other than those for which it was
designed. Fall protection equipment should
never be used for towing or hoisting.
Environmental hazards should be considered
when selecting fall protection equipment.
Equipment must
environmental hazards and chemicals which
may produce a harmful effect. Polyester
should be used in certain chemical or acidic
environments. Use in a corrosive or caustic
environment dictates
inspection and servicing program to ensure
the integrity of the device is maintained.
All synthetic material must be protected from
slag, hot sparks, open flames, or other heat
sources. The use of heat resistant materials is
recommended in these applications.
Do not allow equipment to come in contact
with anything that will damage it including, but
not limited to, sharp, abrasive, rough or high-
temperature surfaces, heat sources, electrical
hazards, or moving machinery.
Do not expose the equipment to any hazard
which it is not designed to withstand. Consult
the manufacturer in cases of doubt.
Never remove product labels, which include
important warnings and information for the
authorized person/user.

1.2 System Compatibility

Honeywell Miller fall protection products are
designed for use with Honeywell-approved
components only. Substitution or replacement
with non-approved component combinations
or subsystems or both may affect or interfere
with the safe function of each other and
endanger the compatibility within the system.
This incompatibility may affect the reliability
and safety of the total system.
WARNING
Always refer to the regulations and
standards regarding
arrest system component requirements
and the instructions provided with each
component being used as part of the
personal fall arrest system.

2.1 Installation/Use Require-
ments, Warnings and Limita-
tions for All Roof Anchors
and Roofing System Kits
to
Before installation of any roof anchor or
roofing system, carefully inspect to ensure
that it is in useable condition. Check for
missing or damaged parts. Do not use if
any component does not operate properly
or appears to be damaged in any way. Re-
fer to the inspection section of this manual.
Only trained and competent personnel
should install and use this equipment.
Anchor and system must be installed and
used in such a manner as to minimize the
potential for a swing fall hazard and limit
free fall distance to 6 feet (1.8m) or less.
Ensure that the anchor point selected
is at a height that will not allow a lower
level to be struck should a fall occur. To
ensure adequate fall clearance, consider the
following:
• Rope grabs have a maximum fall
arrest distance of 39 in. (1m).
• Synthetic rope lifelines may stretch
up to 5%. For synthetic rope lifelines,
add 1 ft. (0.3m) of fall clearance for
each 20 feet (6m) of rope above the
connection point.
• Always
absorbers
subjected to fall arrest forces. Refer
to the labels on the connecting device
to obtain the maximum elongation
distance.
• In addition to the above, it is essential
to consider other components and
variables, including but not limited to,
the height of the worker to the worker's
back D-ring, the length of the lanyard,
the position of the worker in relation to
the anchorage, and potential harness
fall
stretch of up to 1 ft. (0.3m).
• Honeywell recommends that a 3 ft.
(0.9m) safety factor be added to all fall
clearance calculations.
• Call Honeywell Technical Service if
there is any question about calculating
fall clearance.
