FUSE

FUSE is an advanced fall arrester that redefines safety for work at height. Approved for users up to 140 kg, it offers unparalleled smoothness and safety.

FUSE sets a new standard for guided type fall arresters. It is the only safety device on the market for loads up to 140 kg that complies with all applicable standards in Europe and North America. Right from the first meter, it glides along the rope with outstanding ease. This is achieved through a new, sophisticated attachment to the lever arm.

The separation of the blocking mechanism and its speed-dependent activator – a patent application has been filed – improves the reliability and safety of the device. The device reduces wear on the rope, prevents tearing of the rope, and ensures that the blockage can be released without completely unloading the load. This is achieved by avoiding teeth on the clamping cam. If necessary, clamping can be activated with a practical locking function.

FUSE can be attached to and removed from the rope without being separated from the carabiner. In combination with the lightweight and compact DEFUSER energy absorbers (S, L or RESCUE), the maximum impact force is 30% below the standard. Different damping lengths and performance parameters ensure optimal handling – even for rescue operations and horizontal use.

Features

• The only device on the market that meets the standards EN 353-2, EN 12841-A, RfU 11.075 and ANSI Z359.15 for loads up to 140 kg – approved for horizontal applications
• Glides exceptionally smoothly along the rope right from the first meter
• Separation of blocking mechanism and speed-dependent activator – patent application filed – improves reliability and safety
• Activation of the clamping cam at speeds above 2 m/s
