The Zorbit Energy Absorber is used on the Securaspan line of Horizontal Lifelines from DBI/SALA. This little dynamo is placed at one or both ends of a horizontal lifeline cable to reduce the sudden impact load in the event of a fall. This allows significant reduction in the necessary strength, bulk and weight of stanchions used in these systems.
A significant amount of engineering thought has gone into this product. In the instruction manual (below) there are calculations laid out to allow on-site engineering staff to be able to make their own horizontal lifeline systems.
Zorbit energy absorber comes alone, or complete with two shackles, bolts and nuts making installation simple and easy
Allows you to customize your own system with added safety
Allows you to use a standard 5,000 lb. Rated anchorage connector such as our tie-off adaptor, fixed beam anchor, D-ring anchorage plate, etc.
Meets or exceeds all applicable industry standards including OSHA and ANSI.
