ABSORBICA®-Y MGO European Version

Double lanyard with integrated energy absorber and MGO connectors ABSORBICA®-Y MGO is a double lanyard with compact energy absorber, designed for progression on a vertical structure or a horizontal lifeline, and for passing intermediate anchors. It functions with users weighing between 50 and 140 kg. It is available in two lengths: 80 or 150 cm versions (without connectors). The 150 cm version has elasticized arms to avoid hindering progression. With two MGO large-opening connectors, it is certified to European and Russian standards.

Energy Absorber for Vertical and Horizontal Use

Designed to support safe progression on vertical structures and horizontal lifelines, this energy absorber incorporates advanced features to manage the forces exerted during a fall, ensuring safety and comfort without compromising mobility.

Key Features

• Impact Force Reduction: The energy absorber features webbing that tears during a fall to limit the impact force on users, suitable for those weighing between 50 and 140 kg. Progressive tearing helps reduce deceleration for lighter users, enhancing safety for a broad range of body weights.
• Compact and Flexible Design: The compact nature of the energy absorber facilitates easy handling. The FLEX version includes 150 cm of elasticized webbing to prevent hindrance during movement, ensuring fluid progression.
• Protected Design: Housed in a durable fabric pouch with opening systems at each end, the absorber is safeguarded from abrasion and contaminants while allowing for regular inspection to maintain optimal functionality.

Installation Options

• Adaptable Installation: Offers two installation methods on the harness to accommodate different operational preferences:
  • Frequent Connection/Disconnection: Can be quickly connected or disconnected using a carabiner held in the correct position by the STRING positioning accessory, or a MICRO SWIVEL to prevent tangling.
  • Semi-permanent Connection: Can be securely attached using a RING OPEN gated ring, ensuring optimal positioning, or a SWIVEL OPEN to prevent tangling.

Connectivity and Specifications

• Enhanced Connectivity: Includes two large-opening MGO connectors for robust connection to metal structures, facilitating secure and versatile attachment.
• Available Lengths: The energy absorber is available in two lengths, 80 cm and 150 cm, to suit various user needs and task requirements.
• Compliance: Complies with the maximum accepted fall distances, ensuring safety and reliability. For more detailed technical information, visit petzl.com.
