EN 353-1:2014 (E) 5 Introduction This European Standard is intended to act as a complementary standard for existing European Standards covering other components used in personal fall protection systems. The scope and the requirements are based on the philosophy that a guided type fall arrester including a rigid anchor line is rated to sustain the maximum dynamic load generated in a fall from a height by the mass of one person, including any equipment carried. This European Standard provides requirements and test methods for guided type fall arresters including a rigid anchor line used in personal fall protection systems in accordance with EN 363. SIST EN 353-1:2014
EN 353-1:2014 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the requirements, test methods, marking, information supplied by the manufacturer and packaging for guided type fall arresters including a rigid anchor line. This anchor line is usually attached to or integrated in ladders or rungs adequately fixed to suitable structures. Guided type fall arresters including a rigid anchor line conforming to this European Standard are components of one of the fall arrest systems covered by EN 363. This European Standard applies to rigid anchor lines which are intended to be installed vertically and/or with a combination of forward-leaning angle and/or sideways leaning angle between the true vertical and the vertical +15° (see Figure 2). Multi-user applications, i.e. rigid anchor lines that allow more than one user to be attached at any one time, are not addressed in this document. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
