Miller TurboLite Personal Fall Limiters

Never need a shock-absorbing lanyard AGAIN!

Plant Engineering Product of the Year 2008 Gold Award

The cost-effective and competitive pricing of the new Miller TurboLite™ Personal Fall Limiters will make shock-absorbing lanyards obsolete on the jobsite. With the compact and lightweight TurboLite PFL, workers will no longer need to “switch-out” equipment to maintain a safe fall distance.

Miller TurboLite PFL features include:

  • First affordable alternative to shock-absorbing lanyards
  • Extremely compact and lightweight (1.9 lbs. [.86kg]) provides 6 ft. (1.8m) working capacity lifeline; unit attaches directly to the harness back D-ring for greater mobility and versatility
  • Engineered webbing for greater abrasion resistance and long service life
  • High-strength, impact-resistant nylon housing for maximum durability
  • Built-in swivel prevents lifeline from twisting
  • Rated for up to a 400 lb. (181.4kg) user

The benefits will have a positive impact on your safety concerns and your bottom line:

  • Eliminates the need for different fall protection equipment to address fall clearance
  • Reduces risk because workers are using the proper equipment when fall clearance changes
  • Increases productivity by keeping workers on the job longer
  • Miller TurboLite Personal Fall Limiters are competitively priced with shock-absorbing lanyards and will keep safety costs in line

How Sqwincher Keeps Muscles Strong!

In industrial heat-stress environments, the body cools itself by perspiring. When this occurs, much more is lost than just water; magnesium, potassium, sodium and calcium are also depleted. These minerals, or "electrolytes," are crucial to workers if they are to maintain healthy muscles and a productive energy level. Without electrolytes, workers become dehydrated and heat stress - or more serious injury - can be imminent. It's proven that water alone cannot sufficiently replace electrolytes to prevent heat stress. Pure water is absorbed slowly and cannot be retained in the extra cellular cavity. The rate of absorption of Sqwincher as compared with water is significantly faster in the first minute.

Be Cautious of other Sport and Energy Drinks!

Can other products created for a sports environment, where people are active for short periods on random days, be expected to perform in an industrial environment where workers are active up to eight hours a day, five days a week? Why take a chance? With 50 percent less sodium and approximately 50 percent more potassium than most sports drinks used in industry, Sqwincher gives workers one of the most effective electrolyte replacement drinks available.

Dyneema Gloves













When used in protective gloves, the Dyneema® yarn provides cut resistance levels up to level 3 (EN388) and level 2 (ANSI) without using composite fibers. If the higher level of cut resistance is required, Dyneema® yarns can easily be combined with glass or steel fiber.
Protective gloves are often exposed to sharp objects that can abrade the gloves. And of course, the more a glove is abraded the less protection it offers. Tests have demonstrated that gloves made with Dyneema® have up to 20 times more abrasion resistance than gloves made, for example, with Aramid-based (spun) yarns. This leads to a constant protection while wearing the gloves made with Dyneema®.

All gas detectors go into alarm. And, they all need maintenance.

So finding the right gas detector is not your most difficult decision. That’s the easy part. The hard part is deciding what to do when your people are exposed to alarm conditions … when they’re most at risk. And, what do you do when gas detectors go down and you’re waiting for them to be serviced?
