⚠

Safety first. A full body harness is only one part of a personal fall arrest system. Verify anchorage strength, connector compatibility, and fall clearance before work begins, and never use a harness that has arrested a fall until a competent person removes it from service. When calculating minimum required fall clearance, the FallTech manual adds 1.5 ft for harness stretch and D-ring shift during arrest.

Compliance Standards

ANSI Z359.11-2014

Meets the ANSI/ASSP standard for full body harnesses per declaration of conformity B0119136.

OSHA 1926.502 and 1910.140

Satisfies OSHA construction and general industry requirements for personal fall arrest system body support.

Applications

Road and bridge constructionCrews working near live traffic where visibility and fall protection are both mandatory.

Rail and transit workTrack and platform workers who need reflective conspicuity from every layer of PPE.

Utility and lineman supportGround and structure crews working around vehicles and equipment at night.

Heavy civil projectsExcavation, paving, and structure crews on sites with equipment traffic.

Positioning tradesForm work and rebar crews using the hip D-rings with a positioning lanyard and tool belt.

Night and low-light workAny elevated task where woven reflective striping adds a margin of visibility.

How to Use

Donning a full body harness takes less than a minute once the straps are adjusted to your body.

Inspect first. Check webbing, stitching, D-rings, and buckles for damage before every use. Remove the harness from service if you find cuts, burns, or deformed hardware.
Don the harness. Hold the dorsal D-ring, shake the harness so the straps fall free, and slip it on like a jacket.
Close and adjust. Connect the chest and leg closures, then adjust the torso so the dorsal D-ring sits between the shoulder blades.
Check the fit. You should be able to slide a flat hand, but not a fist, under the leg straps. Tuck loose strap ends into the keepers.
Connect and verify. Attach your lanyard or SRL to the correct D-ring for the task, and verify anchorage and clearance based on the delivery location of the work.

Inspection and Service Life

OSHA requires personal fall protection to be inspected before each use, and ANSI Z359.11 adds a formal inspection by a competent person at least annually. Log formal inspections so the service history follows the harness.

Webbing: look for cuts, fraying, abrasion, burns, chemical damage, and UV fading along every strap
Stitching: check for pulled, broken, or abraded threads, especially at load-bearing junctions
D-rings and hardware: confirm no cracks, sharp edges, corrosion, or distortion, and that buckles engage positively
Labels: verify the label pack is present and legible, including the date of first use
Load indicators: confirm the fall arrest indicator has not deployed

Retire the harness immediately if it has arrested a fall, if any inspection point fails, or if the label is missing or unreadable. Cut the webbing on retired units and destroy retired equipment so it cannot return to service.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes does the 7078BHVD come in?

The 7078BHVD is currently offered in the dual-size Small/Med configuration (SKU 7078BHVDSM). Use the FallTech harness sizing chart in the submittals section to match chest, waist, and thigh measurements before ordering, and confirm fit by adjusting the harness to your body before first use.

What standards does the 7078BHVD meet?

The 7078BHVD complies with ANSI Z359.11-2014 per declaration of conformity B0119136 and OSHA 1926.502 and 1910.140. The declaration lists the dual-size Small/Med configuration offered here.

How many D-rings does the 7078BHVD have and what is each one for?

The 7078BHVD has 3 D-rings: one dorsal and two hip. The dorsal D-ring is the fall arrest connection point for your lanyard or SRL, and the hip D-rings connect a work positioning lanyard so you can work hands-free at the task.

The ANSI user capacity is 130 to 310 lb max. and the OSHA user capacity is 130 to 425 lb max., including the worker, clothing, and tools. Static strength of the harness is 3,600 lb min.

Does the hi-vis webbing replace a safety vest?

The hi-vis orange webbing with woven reflective striping adds conspicuity, but whether it satisfies your visibility requirement depends on the standard your site enforces. Many crews pair the harness with rated hi-vis apparel; the harness webbing keeps you visible when a vest shifts or opens.

How often does the 7078BHVD need to be inspected?

OSHA requires an inspection before each use, and ANSI Z359.11 calls for a formal inspection by a competent person at least annually. Retire the harness immediately if it arrests a fall or fails any inspection point.

When should I replace the 7078BHVD?

FallTech does not impose a fixed shelf life; service life is determined by inspection. Replace the harness after any fall arrest event, when webbing shows cuts, burns, or heavy abrasion, when hardware is damaged, or when the label is no longer legible.
