What does the EN 360:2002 standard mean for this fall protection?
The EN 360:2002 standard indicates that this product is officially certified as reliable fall protection with an automatic lifeline tensioner.
This means that the mechanism locks immediately upon sudden acceleration to keep fall distance to a minimum. The automatic retraction mechanism ensures that the line is always taut and moves smoothly with your actions.
