KI 280 Single-Leg Lanyard with One Side Prusik

KI 280 Single-Leg Positioning Lanyard with Boğata

The KI 280 Single-Leg Positioning Lanyard is a static positioning lanyard designed to help workers maintain a stable working position during work at height. The product consists of a 12 mm polyester static rope and a Boğata connection component on one side.

Its static rope construction is intended for work positioning, securing and controlled positioning during suitable work-at-height applications. The product is specified on the IPMARKETİ product page according to EN 354.

KI 280 Positioning Lanyard Features

The primary purpose of the KI 280 is work positioning and helping the user remain in a controlled working position. It should therefore be distinguished from energy-absorbing fall arrest lanyards.

The 12 mm polyester static rope provides a stable connection for positioning applications. The product is available in 1.20 m, 1.50 m, 1.80 m and 2.00 m rope length options.

Technical Construction and Material

The KI 280 is made with a 12 mm polyester static rope. The product page specifies the material as “12 mm Polyester Static Rope + Boğata.”

Its static construction is intended to support controlled positioning during work. The listed product weight is 200 g.

Intended Use

The KI 280 is specified for:

• Work positioning
• Securing the user's working position
• Controlled positioning during work at height
• Applications requiring a stable working position

The product may be used in applications such as steel construction, maintenance and repair, and scaffold work where work positioning is required. The complete personal protective equipment system must be selected according to the working environment and risk assessment.

EN 354 Standard

The KI 280 is listed on the product page with the EN 354 standard.

EN 354 covers requirements for lanyards. However, an EN 354 lanyard should not automatically be considered a complete fall arrest system.

The KI 280 is specifically described on the product page as a static work-positioning lanyard. Its intended function should therefore be understood as work positioning and securing rather than as a standalone fall arrest system.

Positioning Lanyard and Fall Arrest Systems

The KI 280 is described as a positioning lanyard. Where a fall hazard exists, the required fall protection system must be assessed separately.

Depending on the application, a fall protection system may include a full-body harness, suitable connectors, an appropriate anchor point and suitable fall arrest equipment.

The positioning function of the KI 280 should not be confused with the fall arrest function of an energy-absorbing lanyard or other fall arrest equipment.

Applications

The KI 280 can be considered for suitable work-positioning applications such as:

• Steel construction and maintenance work
• Installation and assembly operations
• Maintenance and repair activities
• Scaffold work
• Work-at-height tasks requiring a stable working position

Equipment selection should always take into account the work environment, risk assessment and applicable manufacturer instructions.

What to Consider When Choosing

When selecting the KI 280, first confirm that the required function is work positioning rather than fall arrest.

The rope length should be selected according to the intended working position. The product is listed in 1.20 m, 1.50 m, 1.80 m and 2.00 m options.

The compatibility of the positioning attachment points on the harness and the other components used in the work positioning system should also be considered.

Where there is a risk of falling, a separate suitable fall arrest system must be assessed and used as required.
