November 28, 2008—Designed for climbing fixed ladders, new Miller Vi-Go Vertical Cable Climbing System Kits from Miller Fall Protection provide continuous fall protection with easy-to-install components, says the company. Ladder applications include telecommunication towers, wind power, tanks, silos, drilling rigs, electrical transmission towers and general industry.
The system’s patent-pending Vi-Go Cable Sleeve automatically bypasses intermediate cable guides, keeping both hands free for climbing. In the event of a fall, it travels smoothly along cable and locks instantly, notes the company.
The Miller Vi-Go Ladder Climbing System Kits offers select Automatic Pass-Through Brackets or Manual Cable Guides to secure the cable in windy environments to prevent wear
All systems allow for up to 4 users simultaneously, which increases productivity. The top bracket is engineered with integral shock absorbers to reduce forces in the event of a fall.
The system also indicates when the lifeline is properly tensioned for quick, easy installation and inspection.
