Work at Heights » Introduction

Dear valued customers and partners,

2

The history of our company dates back to 1990 and began with production of outdoor equipment. After a long period of shortages, the Velvet Revolution offered new business opportunities and the first production of sport sit harnesses and slings fueled the enthusiasm of several climbers. From the beginning, there was a close relationship with the emerging business network of Hudy Sport, which, in 1994, led to the creation of our sister company, Hudy Production.

The company specialized in climbing harnesses, and the ROCK EMPIRE® brand became synonymous with first-class climbing equipment. Development of the company was closely linked with Hudy Sport, and, after a few years, the company successfully secured the ROCK EMPIRE® brand for business activities in Czech Republic as well as abroad. Together, we supported a plethora of climbing talent, climbing expeditions as well as events for climbing enthusiasts and the general public. These contacts were always very important to us when deciding what direction the company should take. Unfortunately, every development has its limits, and, in 2007, it was decided to separate the interests of the export-oriented Hudy Production and the business network of Hudy Sport. In the summer of 2008, ROCK EMPIRE Inc. was created, and, since 2009, the company has the export rights to the ROCK EMPIRE® registered trademark.

Currently, our products are sold worldwide in more than 30 countries. The design of our products is based on years of experience cooperating with our customers. For all the equipment we design and produce, we strive for maximum functionality, usability and comfort.

Development of climbing equipment has always gone hand in hand with the general needs of movement at heights which translates into many other activities. One of the most important is undoubtedly safely working at heights, which is subject to strict standards and certifications. Our most well-known work harness, the full body harness Skill Uni, first produced in 2002, has been used by mine rescuers in Chile, Green Peace activists in New Zealand and rescue personnel in Czech Republic. The result is ROCK EMPIRE´s comprehensive range of high-quality, personal protection gear that protects users against falls from heights.

» 1. The anatomical shape of the handle allows for easy gripping and keeps it parallel to the loading direction. Rubber handle fits comfortably in your hand and is also thermally insulated » 2. Fused latch has an anatomical shape which allows for spring-loaded securing of the latch in the open position » 3. A small hole in the bottom of the handle can be used to attach climbing irons with maillons. A second larger hole can be used for connecting slings » 4. Slots in the latch automatically remove unwanted dirt that may be on the rope » 5. Two openings at the top can be used for a carabiner around the rope for higher safety » The ascender´s body is of aluminum alloy to provide a lower weight » Latch securely locks the rope and prevents the ascender for moving against the loading direction » Colors for differentiation of ascenders: light grey for the left hand, dark grey for the right hand » Used with a single rope with diameters between 8-12 mm » Each ascender is marked with a lasered unique identification number

Âť FALL FACTOR The fall factor expresses the proportional severity of the fall. It is the ratio of the vertical drop to the active length of rope, which is available to absorb the impact force of falling.

This is the desired distance under the user, consisting of the length of the connecting slings plus the extended length of the fall absorber. Thus, this is the necessary amount of free space required under the worker, in the event that the fall arrest is deployed, so the worker will not be hurt. The total length of all the pieces must not exceed 2 m (pieces include anchor, connectors, slings, lanyards). The laws are designed to prevent wrong choices of the fastener lengths and consequent severe crashes. A two-meter fall is extremely dangerous and it is therefore appropriate to shorten the length of the fasteners as much as possible. Unfortunately, even a correct selection and deployment of slings and fall absorbers does not guarantee complete safety. The essence of clearance is the space between the anchor point and the ground or the nearest obstacle. In such calculations, it is necessary to take into account the following factors depending on the system used. A. Slings and fall absorber B. Mobile system for fall arrests C. Effect of inertia.

Safe distance from the ground after the fall is about 1 m.

The minimum safety height during use of connecting devices is about 2 m.

These devices and their additional components allow the fall arrester to work with maximum safety in normal conditions, which are defined by the EU standards: Slings EN 354, Fall Absorbers EN 355, and the fall arrest systems. Absorbing the fall energy is done by controlled destruction of the internal webbing shock absorber. This process is assured under any climatic conditions. According to the standards, the use of the fall absorbers is only possible where there is adequate clearance height, see page 28.

Sport rope. Despite its small diameter, the rope offers a long life and abrasion resistance.

Light weight, higher fall rating and excellent handling.

Dynamic rope with excellent characteristics and great design. Maximum user convenience is achieved by the combination of high suppleness, good knotability and strength. The right choice for all climbing enthusiasts.

Maximum wear resistance, low elongation and increased water resistance are properties that make Canyon the right rope for various water sports.

Thanks to the combination of the materials PA for the sheath and PPV for the core, the rope has a low capacity for absorption and floats on the surface.

As of December 31, 2011, full-body, chest, sit and adjustable harnesses from ROCK EMPIRE have a product life set at 10 years from the date of production. During the first 5 years from the date of first use, inspections should done at least once every 12 months. Product life can then be extended by an additional maximum of five years on the condition that the inspections shall be conducted at least once every six months. The above conditions apply to harnesses made after 1.1.2009. Harnesses made in 2008 and earlier have a product life of 5 years. Other personal protection equipment produced by ROCK EMPIRE from 1.1.2009 have a product life of 5 + 5 years (the same conditions as harnesses), ropes - 10 years, metal products are restricted by wear and tear. Wear of metal products can be of maximum of 1 mm.

Product life of textiles produced starting on 1.1.2015 (harnesses and other textile products) has been adjusted to 10+5 years (5 years storage, 10 years from date of first use). Product life of ropes has been extended to 10+5 years (5 years of storage, 10 years after the date of first use).

If an inspector authorized by ROCK EMPIRE finds that the personal protection equipment is not eligible for further use, the inspector has the right to exclude from further use even though the product life has not yet expired.

Example: Harnesses made in 2015 can be properly stored for 5 years, and then should be put into use. If the harness is not damaged during use, the product life would be until 2030.

roc k empire / W O R K A T H E I G H T S

Âť ROOFS When moving on a roof, a worker is exposed to risks: slipping, falling over the edge or into open spaces. If there are not sufficiently strong securing points on the roof, securing points on the ground can be used. When the worker moves near the edge of the roof, the risk of falling increases and then it is necessary to incorporate a fall absorber.
