By Michelle Froese | January 4, 2016

The Miller DuraSeal Self-retracting Lifeline is up to 30% lighter than conventional SRLs to better reduce user fatigue.

Honeywell’s new Miller DuraSeal Self-retracting Lifeline (SRL) is designed to provide greater reliability and safety in the harshest environments, including for offshore wind-power sites.

The DuraSeal SRL offers patent-pending sealed technology that prevents contaminants from entering the mechanism, earning the design an IP69K certification — the industry’s highest sealed technology rating. The seal ensures that the lifeline’s brake system, power spring, and bearings are never exposed to debris, water, or chemicals.

The DuraSeal SRL includes many other advanced, practical features as well. For example, the braking system is designed to withstand multiple falls. Plus, the unit easily installs and transports with quick and low-cost replacements available for in the field if required.

The Miller DuraSeal is also engineered to be up to 30% lighter in weight than competitive SRLs to reduce user fatigue and increase productivity. With a weight capacity of 420 lbs. (180 kg), the DuraSeal provides protection for a wider range of workers who often carry heavy tools.

The SRL requires no annual re-certification, keeping the product in the field longer while increasing the safety of workers.
