This is a retractable safety device which, is anchored to a fixed element and connected to the worker with a safety harness.

When a fall occurs, the harness tenses up and the Fall Protection Device detects this tension.

This device is also responsible for sending the stop signal to the machinery in the plant, causing a quick halt in the functioning of the machine.


The device must be connected to the fixed mooring point, by means of the bearing swivel and the connector. Naturally, the fixed clamping point must be located above the user, in order for the force of gravity of the fall itself to cause the desired effect of generating the sudden tension in the harness. In addition, the connection must have a minimum static resistance of 12kN.

The shape and structure of the fixed clamping point should be sufficient to prevent the device’s automatic disconnection and slippage. The use of fixed mooring points marked and certified is recommended, according to the European standard EN795.

Traffic Control System (TCS)

The TCS solution is designed to prevent accidents between people and cargo vehicles. Forklift circulating around the workspace automatically activate the warning and signalling elements previously installed at different points in this space. The system provides an automated control in the spaces shared by operators and forklifts.
· This system is especially outstanding for its effectiveness and ability to solve problems. In spaces where accident at work rates are high, the TCS Solution provides security and it eradicates human error in relation to such important matters as accident prevention alerts and actions.

· The automation of the signals and pedestrian/forklifts segregation mechanisms becomes of great assistance and its results are very easily verifiable.

· You can install as many tags in parallel as necessary. This allows you to expand the alert zone and configure it according to the interests of each client and the needs of each work space.
The forklifts incorporate a PAS system with an AC-50 activator that generates a radio frequency field around it.

Similarly, TZ2-Tag devices are installed in different points of the workspace to detect previously equipped vehicles.

When a forklift enters the safety zone defined by the TZ2-Tag, the vehicle and warehouse lighting warnings are activated, alerting those in the vicinity of the presence of the vehicle.

At the same time, the system automatically turns the pedestrian traffic light red and blocks the safety gate to prevent any pedestrians from crossing. Only when the vehicle leaves the safety space, the traffic light will turn green and the gates will open.
When the System is used to detect personal tags, it’s effective up to maximum distances of about 6 - 6.5 meters (from where the antennas are installed) from the frontal and posterior areas, and about 4 meters from the sides.

In addition, there’s also a complementary functionality for this system. It has to do with the fact that, up until now, all the operating possibilities mentioned started from a unidirectional use of the TZ2Tag. However, the bidirectional model indicates to the forklift that it had just read a fixed Tag. This activates a signal on the vehicle, which can limit its speed, for example. In other words, when the forklift reads a wall Tag located within the zone that is detecting it, the forklift’s speed is automatically limited.
