Travsmart – Overhead corner kit

TRAVSMART – OVERHEAD CORNER KIT

These sub-assemblies are only used when the system has corners with a standard opening of between 75° and 105°*. Each corner kit acts as an intermediate anchor. The kits are supplied for assembly by the installer.

Depending on the type of mounting configuration used, the corner may be installed, considering the 45° indentations on the bracket, to achieve optimum passage of the traveler.

For overhead installation, the recommended angle is 225°. An angle of 180° is also possible if the self-retracting lifeline is relatively heavy as, for example, a self-retracting device as a fall arrest system with steel wire rope which is compliant with standards ANSI Z359.14-2012, OSHA 1910 and CSA Z259.2.2-98 (weight of fall arrester 22 lb. [10 kg] max.).

Corner kit consist of five parts:

• Two corner anchors
• Two mounting brackets, either for installation on ground, on wall or on post, or for installation on overhead
• Two HM12 x 45 mm (1⁄2 x 1-3⁄4 in.) bolts
• Two locknuts
• Corner tube

FEATURES

• Material: copper-aluminum/aluminium and stainless steel
• Net weight: 3 lb. (1,374 g)

* For corner installation with angle greater than 105°, contact Tractel®.

Note: the corner tube is supplied straight; the installer shapes the tube by hand to adapt it to the desired turn angle between 75° and 105°. Once shaped, it must be approved before use.

TRAVSMART – HORIZONTAL LIFELINE SYSTEM

The Travsmart is a single-line system that provides a smooth continuous travel along the entire length of the lifeline. It allows the traveler to move freely over the intermediate anchors, minimizing wear and eliminating user assistance. The user’s hands remain free to accomplish whatever task is required. Every user must wear shock absorbing lanyard with maximum arrest force of 900 lb. (4 kN).

The Travsmart is a permanent horizontal lifeline system that is easy to install and can allow up to three users for multiple span and two users for single span systems. It is a hands free system that does not require special tools to install. The system comes with a visual tension indicator and an in-line energy absorber.
