Tested and approved for descents with a released
energy of 7.5 MJ (according to EN 341 class A):
W = m ∙ g ∙ h ∙ n
W = energy [J]
m = mass [kg]
g = acceleration of gravity= 9,81m/s2
h = height [m]
n = number of descents
EN 12841:2006 Type C
Tested for use with low stretch ropes (EN 1891 type A)
with diameter 10 mm ≤ ø ≤ 12 mm
Maximum working load: 250 kg.
EN 15151-1 Type 8 (SIRIUS); Type 6 (SPARK &
SPARK TACTICAL).
ROPES (commercially available ropes have tolerances
of ± 0.2 mm):
- Dynamic: 9 - 11 mm;
- Low-stretch: 9 - 11 mm.
