Reliance Fall Protection Unveils Improved Website

Houston, TX, August 06, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Reliance Fall Protection, a leader in custom fall protection solutions, introduces a completely revised website. The site includes a searchable product database, product literature, and access to the Reliance Horizontal Lifeline Wizard™ (for registered users).

The Wizard is designed to aid in quickly determining the viability of a horizontal lifeline installation. The program provides traceability to actual test results obtained in extensive testing on single and multi span systems. This program is accessible to registered users of their website, located at http://www.relsafe.com.

Users have the ability to test the viability of a proposed system by entering system details into the program. Anticipated lifeline tension and minimum required clearance beneath the walking surface are determined instantly by entering the following five items :
• Number of system users required
• Total lifeline length
• Number of intermediate supports
• Elevation of the lifeline above the walking surface
• The type of deceleration device used

Since the calculations are almost instant, many design combinations may be viewed to obtain the best design for protection of the affected worker(s). The program will automatically invalidate the system if it is not viable based on the entries. When a viable system is configured, the user can generate a bill of material based on the components required for the system designed.

The Horizontal Lifeline Wizard™ also gives users the ability to :
• Adjust variables for changing workplace geometry
• Automatically generate design documents for traceability and identification
• Preview performance data
• Create site specific designs
• Analyze comparable designs
• Invalidates system configurations that do not maintain the 2:1 Safety Factor required by OSHA.

Reliance Fall Protection began operations in the year 2000 by patenting a revolutionary new technology for the design of horizontal lifeline systems that allowed the reduction of fall height requirements without increased end-loadings. These advances were followed by development of unique solutions in anchorages, engineered systems, snap hooks, harnesses and lanyards. Reliance Fall Protection is quickly becoming the go-to organization for custom and unique industry solutions. With a full in house engineering staff, product development department, testing facility and vertically integrated manufacturing process, difficult fall protection solutions go from concept to application in a single streamlined process.
