The 3M DBI-SALA Suspension Relief Strap is an essential safety accessory for construction workers, wind energy technicians, and height-safety professionals who utilize full-body harnesses. It provides a critical survival window by allowing a suspended individual to stand within the harness and relieve pressure on the femoral arteries, thereby preventing orthostatic intolerance. While it is a life-saving tool, it requires the user to remain conscious to deploy the straps after a fall, making it a complementary device rather than a replacement for a comprehensive rescue plan.

It helps mitigate the effects, but it is not a cure. It extends the time a worker can safely hang before rescue, but prompt professional rescue remains the priority.
Yes, it is designed to be a universal fit for most standard full-body industrial harnesses.
You should inspect the equipment before every use, following the manufacturer's inspection protocol provided in the manual.
While simple to use, it is highly recommended that all employees receive hands-on training for deployment while safely on the ground.
You can stand in the straps to relieve pressure, and once rescued, the straps can be inspected and reset for future use.
Clean with mild soap and water if dirty; ensure it is completely air-dried before re-packing the pouches.
Ensure the zipper track is free of debris, dust, or dirt; if stiffness persists, check that the pouch is not mounted in a way that puts tension on the zipper.
Adjust the mounting position on the harness webbing to change the reach distance; ensure the straps are adjusted evenly on both sides.
Installation of the straps is straightforward and involves securing the pouch to the harness straps near the hip area. Ensure the pouches are positioned so that they can be reached easily by both hands. To maintain the device, perform a routine inspection before each use to ensure the zippers move freely and the webbing is free of tears, chemical contamination, or structural degradation. If the strap is deployed, inspect the entire assembly before resetting. If the hardware is damaged or the stitching is frayed, the unit should be removed from service immediately.
