COMPATIBLE CONNECTIONS

Compatibility of Components: Unless otherwise noted,

Ergodyne safety equipment is designed for use with

Ergodyne approved components and subsystems only.

Substitutions or replacements made with non-approved

components or subsystems may jeopardize compatibility

of equipment and may affect safety and reliability of the

complete system, potentially resulting in severe injury or

death.

Compatibility of Connectors: Connectors are considered

compatible with connecting elements when they have

been designed to work together such that that their

shapes and sizes never cause any gate mechanisms to

inadvertently open regardless of how the connectors

become oriented while in use. Anchor point and harness

D-ring must be compatible with travel restraint Snap

Hooks.

Never use equipment that is not compatible. Non-

compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage

and prevent travel restraint resulting in serious injury or

death in the event of a fall. Self-locking snap hooks are

required by ANSI Z359.3 and OSHA and all connectors

must be compatible in size, shape and strength.

Making Connections: Snap hooks are designed to be

used only as specified in these instructions, ensuring the

connector gate is closed and locked to a D-ring or anchor

point as shown in (fig. 2) below. Only use connectors that

are suitable to each application. Ensure all connections

are compatible in size, shape and strength. Do not use

incompatible equipment.

FIG. 2

While in use, the snap hook must be free to align with the

applied load as intended regardless of the size or shape of

the mating connector. Inability of the snap hook to align

with the applied load may result in gate loading or a

roll-out disconnection.
