Confined Space Entry

A particularly challenging area of activity is when the worker is required to move into confined spaces. Not only is it required that descent into such a space is made smooth and safe, but incase the depth into such areas is large, it becomes almost equirvalent to working at a height. Hence, to protect the worker from falling into deep and narrow confinement also becomes the focus of concern.

Cantilever K-Pod

KARAM introduces the new K-Pod which provides a safe and sure system for easy access to confined spaces. The K-Pod is an ideal choice to provide overhead anchorage which can be mounted on different bases and it conforms to EN 795 Class B.
The K-Pod is made of highly corrosion resistant Stainless Steel, and can swivel a complete 360 degrees on its mounted base, hence providing a versatile reach and access.
The unique feature is that the height of the Cantilever arm of the K-Pod is adjustable at 3 defined points, with upper height adjustment of 2.3m, middle arm adjustment of 1.9m, and lowered arm adjustment at 1.5m. This enables the use of the K-Pod even in those areas where the roof height is small. The K-Pod can be easily mounted on the floor as well as on the wall through special floor and wall mounting brackets which are made available as per need. The K-Pod can also be mounted on the floor of heavy vehicles, hence making it extremely versatile in use.
KARAM Winch PN 801 can also be easily mounted on to the K-Pod with the help of Stainless Steel fasteners.
