Aluminium Powered or manual suspended work access tripod for man-riding with no maximum working height.

SELS offer our this mobile / temporary access man riding Tripod system with independent fall arrest facility and manual rescue winch for applications specifically where a long lift height is needed offering a maximum working height of 90 metres. This Tripod kit is designed / tailored specifically to suit our customers individual needs; the illustration helps demonstrate how the system could work; it offers maximum portability and can be quickly set-up in scenarios where using a fall arrest retriever block is simply not possible due the the excessive working height. For example a fall arrest retriever inertia reel is only available up to maximum rope length of 40 metres.

The lightweight aluminium tripod is 3.3 metre tall when erected though is also height adjustable with telescopic legs; it is very strong being made from larger section material.

The standard manriding hoist is available as a manual 2 speed hand winch or as electric or battery powered (Batter powered has a manual back-up handle). The longest rope that can be fitted to the hoist is 90 metres. The powered or manual hoist safety provides means of suspended man access / egress; i.e. lifting the worker in and out of the confined space. We can use other hoists with indefinite heights of lift.  (manual and electric)

When a person is suspended while working at height there is the always a risk of falling due to equipment / winch failure and therefore the manriding system should incorporate means of arresting a potential fall - The Fall arrest plan! The system must also incorporate a way to retrieve the casualty after the arrested fall - the rescue plan!

For this man-riding application (suspended work at height) we offer an independent fall arrest system anchored to the leg of the tripod; we use a fall arrest devise on an independent cable that is connected to the user with a lanyard. The fall arrest block relies on the manual intervention for it to be able to move up and down the independent rope; like a dead mans handle! If the user lets go of the lever on the fall arrest block it will no slide on the rope.

Once a fall has happened the rescue winch is then used to raise the casualty to safety. As a 'second back-up' the independent rope is also anchored with a fall arrestor to the tripod leg.
