Description

Petzl have extended their professional harness range by introducing a harness dedicated to the energy and telecommunications markets. The Petzl VOLT comes in two models, each tailored specifically to an industry sector. The VOLT for power transmission towers, the VOLT SEAT for telecommunications structures and the VOLT WIND for wind turbines. At the core of each model is a completely new EASYFIT design of fall arrest harness, enabling straightforward and rapid donning with the help of the latest Petzl FAST buckle. This design gives excellent support and enables comfortable progression with rigid rail fall arrest systems. In the event of a fall the ventral attachment, ideally placed whilst climbing, repositions by the release of load sensitive stitching, placing the wearer in a more comfortable, upright position. If attached to one of the other rated attachment points, fall indicators give a clear ‘tell-tale’ sign of a fall, requiring removal of the harness from service. Combine these features with carefully positioned back and lumbar padding, foldable lateral attachment points and ergonomic storage of lanyard hooks on ‘break-away’ parking points and the VOLT WIND adds up to a harness worthy of the Petzl brand.

Description

The fall arrest and work positioning Petzl VOLT WIND harness is very easily donned thanks to its EASYFIT design: a vest ensures the harness keeps its shape and the FAST automatic buckles on the waistbelt and leg loops allow the harness to be donned with both feet on the ground. The VOLT WIND harness’ anatomical design and wide, semi-rigid waistbelt ensure comfort throughout the work day. Its LADDER CLIMB attachment point allows for ventral attachment of the fall-arrest trolley, thus ensuring optimal comfort during progression. It has wear protectors on the waistbelt and below the dorsal point to limit wear when moving about inside the wind turbine tower. It is certified to European and Russian standards.

  • It has wear protectors on the waistbelt and under the dorsal point to prevent strap wear when moving about inside the wind turbine tower
  • Rapid donning thanks to the EASYFIT design:
    – vest ensures the harness keeps its shape
    – FAST automatic buckles on the waistbelt and leg loops allow the harness to be very easily donned, with both feet on the ground. These buckles retain their adjustment settings between donnings.
  • Comfortable throughout the work day:
    – anatomical design is close-fitting, while giving optimal freedom of movement
    – lightweight, breathable construction
    – wide, semi-rigid waistbelt for excellent support
    – for vertical progression with a rail or cable-based fall protection system, the LADDER CLIMB attachment point allows for ventral attachment of the fall-arrest trolley: it distributes the load on the waistbelt and thus ensures optimal comfort during progression. In case of a fall, this attachment point automatically moves upward to a sternal position to ensure a vertical post-fall body position.
    – leg loop foam position can be adjusted for perfect positioning
  • Easy to use:
    – waistbelt and shoulder straps equipped with self-locking DoubleBack buckles for quick and easy adjustment
    – side attachment points can be folded down to prevent them snagging accidentally when not in use
    – stowage system for the MGO connectors on fall arrest lanyards, on each shoulder strap. In case of a fall, this system releases the MGO connectors and allows the absorber to be deployed.
    – fall indicators on the sternal and dorsal attachment points. If a fall indicator is visible after a fall, the harness must be retired.
    – equipment loops, slots for CARITOOL tool holder and TOOLBAG tool pouch allow easy organisation of work tools
