PSA-7 is a complete horizontal safety system with a steel cable in one handy device. Inside the housing, there are 7 m of steel cable, extended and retracted using the handle.
The system can be anchored to various structural parts using anchors according to EN 795A with a minimum strength of 30kN. Recommended are dynamic anchoring posts of the DSA type.
One person is able to tension the cable unassisted. No other tools or tensioning devices are needed or allowed – all it takes is the handle located at one side of the housing. It is also not allowed to use any tools or objects to elongate the handle.
To loosen the tensioned cable, simply pull the locking lever towards the exit opening, from which the cable extends, to unlock the mechanism and retract the cable. Throughout this operation the handle needs to be able to move freely.
