stress: mechanical stress (impacts, sharp edges, etc.), chemical
stress (projection of acids, bases, solvents, etc.), electrical stress
(short-circuit, electric arcs, etc.) or thermal stress (hot surfaces,
blowtorches, etc.).
- The anchorage point on the structure where the fall arresting
system will be fixed must be above and close to the user, and
must satisfy the resistance requirement of at least 12 kN. It must
also meet the requirements of standard EN795:2012. Try not to
distance yourself too much from this anchor point in order to
limit the impact of a possible pendulum fall.
- In case of risk of falling, reduce the limp portion of the lanyard
as much as possible.
- Avoid areas that are prone to the risk of falling.
- The anti-fall system has to be connected to the dorsal D-ring
of the harness, or at the end-point of the extension strap if it has
one, or to the two sternal rings simultaneously. These points are
identified by the letter A (single fastenings) or A/2 (mandatory
to connect these points together).
- In the event of a fall, the equipment must be destroyed.
- If the user has to frequently open and close the connector
at the end, it is preferable to use a shock absorbing lanyard
equipped with an automatic locking connector. Otherwise,
it is possible to use a shock absorbing lanyard equipped with
manual locking connectors.
- A connector must never have its load focused at its clasp.
- In case of a NLSxx, NLSYxx, NLDxx ou NLDYxx product (lanyard
provided without connector #2), the user must attach the
lanyard to an anchor and a fall protection harness by means of
a connector complying with the EN362:2005 standard.
GENERAL CONDITIONS OF USE :
- A periodic inspection carried out by a competent inspector is
necessary to ensure the safety of the user, which is connected
to the maintenance of the effectiveness and resistance of the

equipment. A mandatory annual inspection will check the
condition of the equipment and it can only continue to be used
on obtaining a written agreement.
- Do not expose these products to temperatures less than -30°C
or more than 50°C.
- This equipment must not be used in any way contrary to these
specifications and under no circumstances should its limits be
exceeded.
- Storage: the product must be stored in a dry and well-
ventilated area, sheltered from any direct or indirect source of
heat and from ultra-violet rays. Drying wet equipment must be
performed in the same conditions.
- Cleaning and disinfection: exclusively with water and a neutral
soap.
- Packaging: use rot-proof and watertight protective packaging.
- Transport: packaged and sheltered from impacts or pressure
caused by the environment.
- The product must not be modified or repaired.
- Service life: NEOFEU fall-protection PPE are designed to last
for several years in normal conditions of use and preservation.
The service life depends on the use. Certain environments
that are particularly aggressive, marine, siliceous or chemical
can reduce the service life of PPE. In these cases, special care
must be taken regarding protection and the inspections before
use. The mandatory annual inspection will validate the correct
functioning of the mechanism and it can only continue to be
used on obtaining a written agreement from the manufacturer
, its representative or a competent person.
As concerns what has been mentioned above, the rough
estimate of the service life of the products, as recommended
by NEOFEU, is ten (10) years.
- Ensure that the identification sheet and the maintenance
monitoring table is kept up to date from the time of the
commissioning and during each inspection.
