Altrac crane kit now serves as a fall arrest system
Altrac crane kit can now be used for fall arrest systems also. The free-running trolleys can now be used by window washers to move themselves across the entire face of a building.
The strength of the Altrac crane kit that allows lifting up to one tonne in the factory while still having long lengths between supports, also makes it possible for multiple users to safely access the same area without disrupting each other if one of them falls.
The lesser deflection of the rail makes rescue easy after an accident. The durability that makes Altrac cranes ideal for all types of environments, from dirty mining applications to clean food and beverage manufacturing, make it a good fall arrest system in dirty mining environments and clean food and beverage manufacturing.
The Altrac crane can be used for window or facade cleaning and maintenance on hi-rise buildings as well as a freestanding fall arrest system for maintaining large mining trucks or construction equipment. The Altrac crane can be erected on a site when needed and just as easily moved to the next one.
The Altrac crane is also ideal as a fall arrest system attached to a large crane that needs routine maintenance and inspection. Altrac has been tested for this purpose and it meets all of the requirements for AS/NZS 1891 - Industrial Fall-Arrest Systems. Altrac crane kit is available from Safety Anchors.
