NOT JUST CLIMB ASSIST: INTELLIGENT CLIMB ASSIST™
The Limpet™ is the only work height safety product that offers Intelligent Climb Assist™ – designed to increase productivity and save money.
Let's face it, climbing turbine towers is hard work. However, our patented technology takes the strain (up to 90% of total body weight), reducing climber fatigue and making the ascent of tall structures quicker. And safer.
That means more climbs in every working day – draft Health & Safety guidelines recommend a maximum total climb, without assistance, of just 240m in an eight-hour shift.
Faster, easier and more efficient climbing also means fewer user errors, greater productivity and reduced turbine downtime (typically calculated as £3000 per day). So not only will the Limpet™ save lives, it will also save you money.
Intelligent Climb Assist™ from Limpet Technology calibrates itself when it first senses weight at the end of the safety line – then recalibrates when the user stops climbing. It automatically compensates for the weight of tools and equipment and, crucially, prevents a second user taking over the system with the wrong level of assistance. It's ideal for wind turbine inspection and maintenance, but has additional applications across many industries.
Key benefits
- Reduces climber fatigue – increases climb productivity
- Faster, more frequent climbs – reduces turbine downtime
- Permanently enabled fall prevention – no secondary fall arrest system required
