  • Technical Information

There are many applications for this product; maintenance of trucks, trains, aeroplanes, internal and external glass/atrium cleaning and more.

HOW IT IS USED

Provides security for those who work at height, by providing a reliable and safe abseil system. Altrac accommodates multiple users without displacement. The permanently fixed trolleys provide smooth uninterrupted access along the length of the rail. Altrac is used by hundreds of organisations around the globe, in industries as diverse as manufacturing, tourism, education and construction.

HOW IT WORKS

T slots on the top face of the extrusion allow for a wide range of mounting options to cater to variations in heights, lengths and angles. The circular rolling track section does not become contaminated by the build-up of dirt, dust or foreign matter and can be easily inspected and cleaned as required.

INSTALLATION

Installation should be carried out by a manufacturer trained technician who is familiar with the parameters of fall arrest and abseil systems.

MAINTENANCE

As per AS/NZS 1891.4 Bomac Altrac must be certified every 12 months by a qualified height safety equipment inspector. All of the exposed materials in the system have been specified as naturally corrosion-resistant, or have been coated with sacrificial coatings to prevent oxidisation of the base material. It is important to consider that in some environments the system may need to be cleaned to gain the best possible life expectancy from the materials.

WARRANTY

Bomac Altrac Overhead Rail Abseil System has a product warranty of 10 years from the date of installation. The warranty is invalidated if inspections are not maintained every 12 months by a qualified height safety system equipment inspector.
