Falltech 11 FT-X Web Class 1 SRL-P Manuel D'instructions page 4

2.0 Description
The FallTech FT-X Web SRL-P is a personal self-retracting device for those working at height and may
TM
be subject to fall hazards. This product is not suitable for applications with leading edge exposures
where the lifeline of this device may come in contact with an edge during a fall event. This product is a
personal SRL and may be used with the SRL housing side connected to the anchor or connected to the
full body harness. Contact FallTech for more information or product selectionv questions.
This manual includes one Appendix containing figures and tables specific to the FT-X Web SRL-P
discussed in this manual.
The SRL discussed in this manual may be attached to an overhead anchorage, i.e., from directly over
the user's head, or to or around an anchorage at a maximum of 5' below the user's FBH dorsal D-ring
for a worker weight up to 310 lbs. or at a maximum of 3' below the user's FBH dorsal D-ring for a
worker weighing 311 to 420 lbs. Below D-ring tie-off is outside the scope of ANSI Z359 and is only
allowed when no edge hazards are present. At no point during a fall shall the lifeline be loaded over
any edge.
As shown in Figure 1 below, the FT-X Web has a nylon housing that contains a synthetic lifeline wound
onto a spring tensioned drum. The FT-X Web lifeline is equipped with an energy absorber and a leg-
end connector. When the user is attached, the lifeline extends and retracts with the user movement,
automatically maintaining taut lifeline. If a fall occurs, a centrifugal pawl system engages, stopping the
lifeline payout. Then, the in-line Energy Absorber (EA) will deploy, gradually slowing and arresting the
fall.
See Table 1A in Appendix A for product, material, and performance specifications.
