How to inspect self-retracting lifeline?

Self-retracting lifelines and lanyards that automatically limit free fall distance to 2 feet (0.61 m) or less must have components capable of sustaining a minimum tensile load of 3,000 pounds (13.3 kN) applied to the device with the lifeline or lanyard in the fully extended position.

What are the OSHA requirements for self-retracting lifelines?

The CSA groups SRL standard Z259. 2.2 bases inspection requirements on the equipments environmental and storage conditions. With the new standard, SRLs have to be serviced every five years for light use, two years for heavy use and once annually for severe use.

How often do SRLs need to be inspected?

Inspect the entire length of the cable for cuts, burns, frays, kinks, or tears. Perform a Strike Test: Grip the handle and quickly pull downward on the cable, place all the force above the fall indicator so you do not accidentally trigger it. This will test the braking mechanism of your SRL.
