Compact fall protection helps workers move more naturally at height while keeping the connecting lifeline under control. Unlike a fixed lanyard, a retractable block extends only when the worker moves and automatically retrieves the unused line.

MIC02N(000_136)(R&B)(ME) is a Self Retracting Fall Arrester from the Mikron range. Your supplied configuration features a red and black casing, an integrated PN300 energy absorber, and a PN136 aluminium scaffold hook at the attachment end.

KARAM’s current Micron family uses a compact polymer casing and a 2 metre retractable lifeline. The current MIC02 listing describes the block as suitable for professional fall protection, including horizontal and foot-level anchorage applications under the manufacturer’s approved conditions.

Nassguard supplies the Self Retracting Fall Arrester MIC02N across Qatar and Doha for construction, structural work, industrial maintenance, utilities, towers and other professional work-at-height applications.

What is MIC02N Self Retracting Fall Arrester?

MIC02N is a compact Mikron Fall Arrest Block designed to provide automatic lifeline control during work at height. The internal mechanism allows the lifeline to extend when the worker moves away from the anchorage point. As the worker moves closer again, the system retracts the unused line automatically. This helps reduce slack compared with a conventional fixed-length lanyard.

If sudden downward acceleration occurs, the braking mechanism activates and locks the retractable line. This allows the block to arrest the fall within the performance limits of the complete system. Your MIC02N(000_136)(R&B)(ME) configuration also includes a PN300 energy absorber. Energy absorbers are used to limit the force transmitted through a fall-arrest system; KARAM describes its energy-absorbing lanyards as limiting impact force to below 6 kN. The attachment end uses PN136, a forged aluminium scaffold/rebar hook with a wide 60 mm gate opening.

Technical Specifications

KARAM’s current MIC02 specification confirms a polymer casing, 2 metre maximum length, 16 kN minimum breaking strength and compact construction for the current Micron block family.

Because your supplied MIC02N(000_136)(R&B)(ME) configuration differs from the current MIC02 product page in its attachment hardware and PN300 absorber arrangement, the exact product label or supplied datasheet should take priority for configuration-specific values.
