Has your risk assessment identified the risk of industrial doors falling during use? A failure in the door's primary operating system could result in an uncontrolled drop, thereby risking severe damage to any equipment or, more critically, people below. The older the door, the higher the risk. A large number of our customers have used Guard load arrestors as a cost effective, easy way of managing this risk, avoiding the expense in replacing the entire door / lifting mechanism. Simply install one (or more) load arrestors above the door, and attach the end of the Guard's cable to door itself. Should the door fall, the Guard will catch the falling door, preventing potentially catastrophic damage.

Guard load arrestors are ideal for this type of application, because the cable automatically extends and retracts, following the movement of the industrial doors.

Una consideración importante, cuando se utiliza Guard de esta manera, es la velocidad de activación de Guard. Si la puerta baja a un ritmo más rápido que la velocidad de activación del Guard (0,6 m por segundo), entonces el arrestador de carga se activará cuando no se necesite, lo que sería problemático. Por lo tanto, asegúrese de establecer cuidadosamente la velocidad de funcionamiento de la puerta de antemano.
