Technical Data - KRATOS SAFETY FA 60 011 00 Manual Del Usuario

This notice must be translated (possibly by the retailer) into the language of the country of use.
For your safety, comply strictly with the instructions for use, verification, maintenance and storage.
KRATOS SAFETY cannot be held liable for any direct or indirect accident occurring as a result of use other than provided for in this notice; do not use
this equipment beyond its capabilities!
USE AND PRECAUTIONS: The Stainless Steel Anchor Point complies with the requirements of the European Standard EN 795:2012 (anchor device
- Type A). It is aimed to be installed on a concrete host structure to connect some P.P.E. against the fall of a person during works at height through a
connector (EN362). Make sure that in case of fall the effort is applied in the direction indicated on Figure 1.
This anchor point can only be used by one person at a time.
Position
The location of the anchor point has to be chosen so as to allow the user to connect / disconnect in a safe way.
The location will take into account:
- The clearance needed by the fall arrest system connected to the anchor point.
- The risk linked to the pendulum effect in case of fall
- The fall factor.
Observe the following dimensions for the host structure at the time of choosing the location of the anchor point:
Minimum thickness of the concrete wall
Minimum distance between the axle of the anchor point and the edge of the wall
Installation
Drill a 13 mm diameter and 115 mm depth hole in the host structure, fix the threaded rod (longest threaded end) in the host structure with a chemical
pouch (Figure 2, not provided). Strictly observe the instructions of the chemical pouch manufacturer (Fischer/Würth/Hilti) regarding the installation
of the anchor point. Use the slot on the threaded rod as a mark, this slot should be on the outside of the wall and as close to the hole made in the wall
as possible.
Then insert the marking plate (the marking on the plate should be visible), then the fastening ring on the threaded rod and secure its fixing thanks to the
safety screw (Allen key). Make sure the safety screw is properly positioned in the slot.
The whole flat surface of the anchor point must be in contact with the host structure.
Do not use the anchor point before the chemical pouch has completely dried; refer to the instructions of the manufacturer.
The minimum breaking strength for axial pull-out force must be at least 11 kN.
In every instance, we recommend submitting every structural anchor (threaded rod), once it is installed in the material in question, to an axial pull-out
force of 5 kN to confirm the solidity of the fixing. The structural anchor should sustain the force for a minimum of 15 s.
Be aware of the hazards that could reduce the performance of your equipment, and therefore the user's safety, if exposed to extreme temperatures (<
-30°C or > 50°C), prolonged exposure to the elements (UV rays, humidity), chemical agents, electrical constraints, twisting of the fall arrest system
during use, sharp edges, friction or cutting, etc.
User safety relies on the effectiveness of the equipment and full understanding of the safety instructions contained in this leaflet.
Before and during use, we recommend that you take all the necessary precautions for a safe rescue should it be needed.
This equipment is for the sole use of people trained, skilled and in good health, or under the supervision of a trained and skilled person. Warning! Certain
medical conditions may affect user safety; if in doubt, consult your doctor.
Before each use, please check: the condition of the fixings and the anchor point, they must be in apparent good condition, without marks, shocks, defor-
mations, oxidation... The marking should be visible. In case of doubt, the anchor point has not to be used any more.
Do not remove, add or replace any component of the product whatsoever.
Chemical products: put the system out of use if it comes into contact with chemical products, solvents or fuels which could affect its workings.
