Fall Clearance Charts
V-TEC SRL / V-TEC Synthetic SRL
Ensure sufficient clearance exists to prevent striking an obstacle or leading edge (e.g. crossbeams and girders) during a fall. Insufficient clearance, obstructions and leading edges can prevent the function of the V-TEC SRL and V-TEC Synthetic SRL. To reduce the risk of a swing fall, it is preferable to anchor directly overhead.
The minimum fall clearance is 2.8 m. Fall clearance is calculated as the vertical distance between the working platform and the first obstacle below (such as the next platform or ground).
The V-TEC SRL and V-TEC Synthetic SRL are suitable for use on approved horizontal lifelines or rigid anchors. If the V-TEC SRL or V-TEC Synthetic SRL is attached to an anchor that may deflect or deploy in a fall, such as a deadweight anchor or anchor line, the additional deployment of that device shall be included as a safety margin to the minimum clearances. For further clarification on determining suitable fall clearances, contact MSA.
To reduce the potential for injury in a fall, the fall distance should be minimized.
