Area of Application
The ISOSTOP systems are generally characterized by a slim design. This makes transport and installation in high alpine terrain much easier. They are an effective and efficient system used to protect life, infrastructure and other elements at risk. ISOSTOP 1:1 scale tested carrying both European and Swiss certifications.
Rope Guidances
The upper and lower bearing ropes are led through a rope guidance that is integrated on each post head and base plate. Each guidance provides large curved surfaces to help protect the ropes and allow unobstructed movement. The guidance is designed to be robust and with no movable parts in order to ensure longevity and zero maintenance.
Middle Rope Guidances
In the event of rockfall, the innovative middle rope system simultaneously ensures low cable forces while reducing the cost of anchoring.
Integrated Ladder
Posts from this ISOSTOP system are built from RHP profiles that provide high torsional rigidity and extremely low weight. The detachable steps are installed after transport and enable the highest level of work safety.
Base Plate
The universal base plates of the ISOSTOP systems can be used for compression-tension anchoring, as well as for placement on foundations or walls. The unique mounting bolt enables free-standing installation of the posts, which saves significant time, especially when assembling a helicopter.
Lateral Anchorage
The lateral anchoring of the ISOSTOP systems is clearly structured and can be reduced to a minimum of anchors by use of efficient brake elements. This shortens the construction time and reduces construction costs.
Flex Net
The foldable FLEXNET can be pre-assembled on the posts. The net is extremely robust and elastic thanks to the structure of individual wire rope strands. After an event, the flexible wire rope ensures that it returns to its original geometry and thus significantly reduces maintenance costs.
ISODISK Brake Element
The ISODISK is a modular disc brake system that ensures linear energy absorption through deformation and the breaking of material bridges. This means that the brake is completely insensitive to environmental and climate influences in the long term. Due to its reliability, compact design and modular structure, the brake forms the core element of all ISOSTOP Ev systems up to 3000 kJ.
