The compact energy absorber can withstand user loads of up to 220 kg. The high load capacity enables users to work with heavy equipment and offers an additional reserve for rescue situations where users need to bear the weight of the person in need of assistance on their own system. At 4 kN, the maximum impact force is significantly lower than the legally stipulated maximum of 6 kN. The window makes it possible to visually check the intactness of the energy absorber at any time.

The specially designed DEFUSER energy absorber may be used exclusively with the guided-type fall arrester FUSE: They are light, compact, and the maximum arrest shock is 30 % below the standard.
