Enhancing Safety at Hydraulic Stations with Fallprotec Solutions

Enhancing Safety at Hydraulic Stations with Fallprotec Solutions

Hydraulic stations have inherent risks of falls from height given their situation on the edge of the significantly lower surface, into which the water pours. It starts from the access to the structure, often in mountainous areas, difficult to reach, and continues with stairs made slippery by the environing water to access on the dam itself. Several Fallprotec products have been made to good use in these situations, the Securope overhead and the Securail Pro horizontal, vertical and into confined spaces. Fallprotec used its expertise in providing the best energy absorption and the lowest deflection to provide the most secure possible systems for these specific structures. Special thanks to MTA Consulting MTA International for installing our lifelines in Italy and Switzerland and taking nice pictures of them!
