Capital Safety DBI-SALA
The new DBI-SALA 50-Foot Sealed-Blok Self-Retracting Lifeline is designed to withstand the harshest operating environment, and includes features that maximize work site versatility and lower the cost of ownership.
Features include the optional RSQ dual-mode rescue capability (choose between automatic rescue mode and fall arrest mode); FAST-Line field replaceable lifeline; 420-pound weight capacity; and IP68 certification. In addition, units are available with an integrated retrieval winch. The IP68 code, as defined by international standard IEC 60529, describes the product’s ability to seal out solids and liquids such as dirt, dust and water.
The Sealed-Blok SRL is the only sealed self-retracting lifeline available with a retrieval winch for raising and lowering personnel or materials. The SRL can be quickly converted to and from retrieval mode for fast and efficient operation. The input crank handle has a primary brake that will prevent movement of the load upon release of the handle. An optional bracket makes for quick and easy attachment of the SRL to tripods and davits. 800.328.6146, www.capitalsafety.com
