Abstract

An energy absorber device for use in a fall protection system has an energy absorber in the form of an elongate flexible element having first end spaced apart from and a second end. A containment structure (such as a housing or jacket) contains the energy absorber in an un-deployed state and has a first end secured with respect to the elongate flexible element near the first end of the elongate flexible element. The second end of the containment structure has a deployment exit such that in the event of deployment of the energy absorber arrangement, the elongate flexible element is pulled through the deployment exit. The device provides for easier deployment of the elongate flexible element than other designs employing hard shell casings or housings. Movement on the elongate flexible element is also highly resisted.
