Asap, by Petzl, is an essential device in your fall protection system and accompanies you in your daily life as a worker at height.
In normal use, during your movements on the rope, the device moves freely without having to be manipulated.
In the event of a fall or uncontrolled descent (beyond two metres per second), the device locks onto the rope and stops you.
Depending on your needs, choose an Asap'Sorber 20 or 40 energy absorber to be able to work comfortably at a greater or lesser distance from the rope.
