application period
The lifetime of this safety products is basically dependent on the type and frequency of application as well as conditions of use,
care in maintenance and storage, and can therefore not be universally defined. Products manufactured from man-made fibres (e.g.
polyamide, polyester, aramid) are subject to ageing even if not used, depending in particular on the strength of ultraviolet radiation
and environmental influences.
Maximum lifetime 12 years
The maximum lifetime of euroline® plastic and textile products is 12 years from the date of manufacture, if not used and stored
optimally.
Maximum lifetime of 10 years
In case of occasional and appropriate use, without obvious wear, the maximum lifetime is 10 years from the date of first use.
Storage duration 2 years
The storage period before first use, without service life being diminished, is 2 years from date of manufacture.
In case of compliance with all instructions for safe handling and storage, following non-binding lifetime recommendations can
be made:
•
Intensive everyday use ................................ less than 1 year
•
Regular year-round use ............................... 1 year to 2 years
•
Regular seasonal us .................................... 2 to 3 years
•
Occasional use (once a month) ................... 3 to 4 years
•
Sporadic use ................................................. 5 to 7 years
Metal fittings such as buckles, carabiners, etc. ...:
The lifetime of metal fittings is basically unlimited, but they must also be subjected to periodic inspections that cover damage/wear
and deformation.
With use of different materials in a product, the period of use depends on the more sensitive materials.
Extreme operating conditions can make the elimination of a product necessary after a single application (type and intensity of use,
application, aggressive environments, sharp edges, extreme temperatures, chemicals, etc.).
a PPe against falls from a height must always be eliminated:
•
if there is damage to load-bearing components essential for safety, such as belts and seams (cracks, cuts or other)
•
in case of damage to plastic and/or metal fittings
•
in case of stress due to a fall or heavy load
•
after expiry of the period of use
•
if a product appears not to be safe or reliable if the product is outdated and no longer meets the technical standards
(change of legal regulations, standards and technical regulations, incompatibility with other equipment, etc.)
•
if the history of use is unknown or incomplete (inspection logbook)
•
if product labels no longer exist, are unreadable or missing (even partially)
•
if the instruction manual/logbook of the product is missing (because the product's history can not be traced!)
•
See also section: 2) Provisions for the equipment owner
If a visual inspection by the user, equipment owner or a QP has revealed defects or if the PPE's lifetime has expired, it must be
eliminated. The elimination must be done in such a manner that reuse is excluded with certainty (e.g. by cutting and disposing of the
straps, fittings, etc.).
In case of frequent use, intensive wear and extreme environmental conditions, the allowed period of use is shortened. The decision
on the applicability of the device must always be taken by the responsible COMPETENT PERSON within the prescribed periodic
inspection period.
