Sicur 08: ATEX harness by Sperian to be used in explosive environments.

Sicur 08: The ATEX anti-static harness by Sperian Protection (previously Bacou), is the ideal solution for high up work in explosive environments. It is particularly useful for the petrochemical or mining industries. One of its main features is the greater safety due to an anti-static material that guarantees the conductivity of the current to prevent any risk from sparks.

It provides maximum safety thanks to the use of an anti-static material that guarantees the conductivity of the current and to prevent the risk of sparks.

 It is a versatile product, since its two anchoring points, back and chest offer the user an important versatility in the work place. Additionally, it is easy to use, since its displaceable back piece allows a quick fitting of the harness at the same time as it prevents the straps becoming tangled up. Its integrated back extender allows the user easy access to the anchoring point, even when wearing the harness.
For complete safety, this harness must be used as a complement to a retractile anti-drop, anti-static element (for example the wired Falcon by Miller) and with an anchoring point connected to the earth. Some of its characteristics that differentiate it from other types of harness are: back anchoring points (with integrated extender with textile rings) and chest (textile rings); sub-pelvis tape; back piece for comfort, adjustable straps and adjustable leg straps with automatic buckles

Sperian also has other harnesses on the market, such as for example the Kevlar by Millar, which was designed to offer exceptional resistance to heat and fire in high risk working environments and risks of working high up. This harness is the ideal solution for firemen, defence, welding work and activities on marine platforms. There are two models of the Kevlar harness on the market and both comply with the maximum safety regulations. It is a harness that is very resistant to flames and to high temperatures thanks to its yellow Kevlar interior that provides strength and resistance at high temperatures. The fireproof tapes made from Nomex protect against sparks and flames. This article offers greater safety thanks to the brightly colour, contrasting tapes that aid inspections. There are two different versions on the market, but in both cases they offer a perfect solution for a wide range of applications for working high up. These are some of its main features: its sub-pelvis tape, adjustable straps (Model 650K), adjustable leg straps, fixing clips on the straps to fasten the rope when it is not being used.
