Product Specific Applications
Restraint: Diablo 2.5 Cable SRL-LE may be used in Restraint applications. Restraint systems prevent
workers from reaching the leading edge of a fall hazard. Always account for fully deployed length
of lanyard/SRL. Structure must withstand loads applied in the directions permitted by the system
of at least 1,000 lbs. No free fall is permitted. Restraint systems may only be used on surfaces
with slopes up to 4/12 (vertical/horizontal). Applicable D-rings: Dorsal, Chest, Side, Shoulder.
!
WARNING
Use of equipment in unintended applications may result in serious
injury or death. Maximum 1 attachment per connection point.
Limitations
Fall Clearance: There must be sufficient
clearance below the anchorage connector to
arrest a fall before the user strikes the ground
or an obstruction. When calculating fall
clearance, account for a MINIMUM 2’ safety
factor, deceleration distance, user height, length
of lanyard/SRL, harness stretch, and all other
applicable factors.
Diagram shown is an example fall
clearance calculation ONLY.
Swing Falls: Prior to installation or use, make
considerations for eliminating or minimizing
all swing fall hazards. Swing falls occur when
the anchor is not directly above the location
where a fall occurs. Always work as close to in
line with the anchor point as possible. Swing
falls significantly increase the likelihood of
serious injury or death in the event of a fall.
Diablo 2.5 Cable SRL-LE recommended fall clearance
(Does not factor in any potential swing fall hazards.
Clearance numbers specified based on lifeline
installed vertically overhead and in-line with worker.):
• LE Use: 13‘-17’
• Non-LE Use: 5½’ (no free fall) to 7½’ (maximum 2’ free fall)
Personal Fall Arrest: Diablo 2.5 Cable SRL-LEs may be used in Personal Fall Arrest applications as
a component of a MAXIMUM 1 Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS). Structure must withstand loads
applied in the directions permitted by the system of at least 5,000 lbs. Applicable D-ring: Dorsal.
• Free fall, non-LE Use: Maximum 2’.
• Free fall, LE Use: Maximum 5’. Please note that free fall in excess of 2’ is not in compliance with
ANSI A10.32-12 fall protection regulations, but is still fully compliant with all applicable ANSI
Z359.14-14, OSHA 1926 Subpart M, and OSHA 1910 regulations.
For all applications, worker weight capacity range (including all clothing, tools, and equipment):
LE Use: 130-310 lbs.
Non-LE Use: 130-420 lbs.
*Eliminate Swing Fall whenever
possible! If Swing Fall exists,
always account for additional
fall clearance.
