Petzl ABSORBICA®-Y MGO European version

Description

• Designed for progression on a vertical structure or horizontal lifeline, and when passing intermediate anchors
• Absorbs energy in the event of a fall:
  – tearing of the energy absorber webbing limits the impact force on the user
  – works with users who weigh between 50 and 130 kg
  – progressive tearing reduces the deceleration on lightweight users
• Minimal bulk:
  – compact energy absorber facilitates handling
  – FLEX version with 150 cm of elasticized webbing to avoid hindering progression
• Durable fabric pouch with opening system at each end, protects the energy absorber from abrasion or contaminants while allowing for regular inspection of the absorber
• Two options for installation on the harness, depending on use:
  – frequent connection/disconnection: using either a carabiner held in correct position by the STRING positioning accessory (included with the lanyard), or a MICRO SWIVEL to avoid tangling
  – semi-permanent connection: using either a RING OPEN gated ring whose circular shape ensures optimal positioning, or a SWIVEL OPEN to avoid tangling
• Comes with two large-opening MGO connectors for connection to metal structures
• Available in two lengths: 80 and 150 cm
