Honeywell has launched the Miller H-Design™ confined space harness, a unique safety solution for people working in confined spaces. The harness features a specially designed belt that holds a respiratory mask, providing workers in utilities and water treatment sectors with a comfortable, flexible and easily accessible self-rescue solution.
“Based on customer research, wearing a self-rescuer mask on a traditional harness is not only uncomfortable but can be painful,” said Céline Verdot, Product Manager of Fall Protection Products for Honeywell Safety Products, EMEA. “The new Miller H-Design confined space harness offers users quick access to their respiratory mask whenever there is a known or potential exposure.”
Suitable for use with all major self-rescuer masks on the market, due to a unique single webbing attachment system, the soft and flexible padded belt is comfortable and can be adjusted in height to suit the user. The self-rescuer mask can be placed either on the front, side, or back of the harness for greater freedom of movement with a smooth, sliding action bringing the mask to the front of the belt quickly and easily in case of emergency.
The EN361:2002 compliant harness is available on its own or as a complete unit with belt and harness. The belt is offered in two sizes (S/M, L/XL) to fit any body shape.
“The Miller H-Design harness provides an unmatched user experience and workers using it feel free in their movements. This is thanks to the H-shaped design, which makes adjusting straps and buckles faster, while also offering greater freedom of movement,” said Céline.
Fitted with DuraFlex® stretch webbing at the shoulders for additional comfort, the Miller H-Design has special features that make it up to three times faster to put on than traditional harnesses. These features include easy to access buckles that offer the ability to make intuitive adjustments by pulling from the top down (vs traditional harness buckles that require pulling from the bottom up); as well as a chest strap that can be adjusted for a more comfortable fit.
