Esta norma europeia determina, referindo-se à norma (EN ISO 20344), as exigências fundamentais e adicionais (facultativas) do calçado de segurança para uso profissional, levando a marca «S». O calçado foi equipado de uma biqueira de segurança para garantir uma proteção contra os choques de energia máxima equivalendo a 200 Joules e contra um esmagamento de 15 kN.

Esta norma define os métodos de ensaio do calçado de segurança, do calçado de proteção e do calçado de trabalho para uso profissional. Esta norma só pode ser utilizada junto com as normas EN ISO 20345 e EN ISO 20347, que precisam as exigências do calçado em função dos níveis de riscos específicos.

Equipment consisting of a mobile fall arrester with self-locking, integral with its flexible anchorage line (rope, cable…). An energy reducer (absorber) can be built-in in the equipment.

Equipment consisting of a mobile fall arrester with self-locking, integral with its rigid anchorage line (rail, cable…). An energy reducer can be built-in on the equipment.

Body securing device intended to stop falls. The full body harness can be made of straps, buckles and other elements; set and adjusted in a right way on the body of an individual to secure him during a fall and afterwards.

Component of a fall arrest equipment, which guarantees the stop of a fall from a height in safety by reducing the impact of the shock.

WARNING: If we associate a lanyard energy absorber, the total length of the entire device must not exceed 2 m.

Fall arrester with self-locking device and a self-retractable system for the lanyard. An energy reducer (absorber) can be built-in in the equipment.

SCIP information

Connection element or equipment component. A connector can be karabiner or a snap hook.
Class A: Anchorage connector, automatic lock used as the component and designed to be connected directly to a specific type of anchorage.
Class B: Primary connector with automatic lock used as the component.
Class M: Multi-purpose connector, primary or quick opening, used as a component, which can be loaded along its major axis or minor axis.
Class Q: Quick opening connector used in long-term or permanent applications, screw lock. When completely screwed this part is a supporting part of the
connector.
Class T: Manufactured end connector, automatic lock, designed as part of a subsystem for attachment so that the load is carried in a predetermined direction.

Connection elements or equipment component. A lanyard can be in rope made of synthetic fibres, in metallic rope, in strap or in chain.
CAUTION: A lanyard without energy absorber must not be used as a fall arrest equipment.

A work positioning system consists of elements (belt and work positioning line), joined together to form a complete piece of equipment.

Element of a fall arrester system to which a personal protective equipment can be fastened.
