Energy Absorber

The Energy Absorber for Fall Protection by Secure First is a critical safety component designed to reduce the force of a fall, ensuring maximum protection for workers at height. Whether in construction, industrial maintenance, telecom, or rescue operations, an energy absorber plays a vital role in fall arrest systems, helping to dissipate impact forces and prevent severe injuries.

How Does the Energy Absorber Work?
An energy absorber functions by gradually decelerating the fall, absorbing and dispersing the kinetic energy generated during a sudden drop. When a fall occurs, the tear-webbing technology inside the absorber activates, slowing the descent and significantly reducing impact forces on the worker’s body and anchorage system. It is commonly used with lanyards, self-retracting lifelines (SRLs), and safety harnesses for enhanced fall protection.
