NOTE: The stated loads are the maximum
values applicable, which must not in any event be
multiplied by the number of anchor points located on a
davimast bracket.
4.2. Description of systems compatible
with the davimast
Before using the davimast, the operator must have and
review the operating manuals of the davimast and each
associated accessory.
4.2.1. 150 kg PPE double anchor bracket with 360°
rotation
The 150 kg PPE double anchor bracket with 360°
rotation is compliant with and covered by EN 795:2012
class A. Each anchor point is certified for a 150 kg
operator. Each anchor point can be rotated around the
davimast axis.
One of the two anchor points on this bracket can be
used as a lifeline anchor point. It is compulsory to
ensure that the lifeline does not require the installation
structure to have a minimum strength greater than 15
kN, including any safety coefficient.
4.2.2. blocfor™ R bracket
Not covered by standard EN 795:2012. Compliant with
standards EN 360 and EN 1496.
It is supplied with its bracket and instructions, and
is fastened to the davimast mast. The blocfor™ R is
a self-retracting fall arrest device with a rescue lifting
system.
In the event of a fall, the operator is stopped by a safety
ratchet mechanism. blocfor™ R devices are equipped
with a manual hoist to allow the rescuer to raise or lower
the fallen operator.
blocfor™ R devices are not suitable for handling and
securing loads.
The blocfor™ R bracket is equipped with an EN
795:2012 class A 150 kg anchor point for securing one
operator on the surface.
4.2.3. caRol™ TS bracket
Not covered by standard EN 795:2012. Compliant with
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
Supplied with its bracket and instructions. The caRol™
TS manual drum hoist is used for lifting loads. With
its two independent braking systems, it offers high
operating safety. The caRol™ TS hoist is mounted on
its davimast bracket.
