Alsipercha, an unlimited world of fall protection solutions
The Alsipercha, one of the most successful fall protection systems in the construction sector, include a wide range of complements and accessories, expanding the use to the industry and other sectors, providing a valuable versatility with unlimited installation possibilities. CE-OSHA/ANSI-CSA compliance, the family of solutions meet the demanding standards from Europe, USA and Canada.
The Alsipercha provides an effective overhead fall protection for those who are exposed to falls when working at heights. Includes a built-in energy-absorber device (diagonal), reducing the impact forces transmitted to the user and to the structure, in case of activation due to a fall of a user.
With an advanced and robust design, the product admits a maximum number of 2 users connected simultaneously, being one of the most versatile and effective overhead fall protection systems on the market.
Main advantages of the system: preventive system (fall factor “0”) – avoids the accident before it occurs-, simple, fast and intuitive assembly process, increase productivity since the user feels total confidence when working protected, contributes directly to the reduction of work accidents when there is a high risk of fall.
After 15 years at the forefront of fall protection in construction sites with the classic version Alsipercha, (79kgs made of steel, without permanent deformation), Alsina launched in 2019 a light version Alupercha, made of HQ aluminum, weighing just 19kgs, allowing an installation and relocation process by hand. The built-in energy absorber ergonomically reduces the force of a fall and together with the retractable fall arrest block, Alupercha can safely deliver a fall factor of zero.
The latest innovation development launched during 2020, is the Mobile Base Unit (MBU), an anchor-free portable base easy to install and relocate by using standard forklifts, which provides an effective overhead anchor point of up to 6,5m with high versatility of use and easy to relocate wherever it is necessary. A perfect solution to have a multi-transportable effective anchor point for industrial environments, maintenance jobs, loading-unloading vehicles, and unlimited situations.
A renewed version of the specific product website (www.alsipercha.com/en), include the total possible available combinations, which are:
- Alsipercha + Housing tube (more info): an effective overhead anchor point above the user, provides total safety during the formwork decking stage, installation of guardrails, gallows- type safety nets, formwork risers and in general, all formwork assembly activities that entail the risk of falling from heights in construction sites.

- Alsipercha / Alupercha + MF counterweight system (more info): consists of a modulable structure with no need to be anchored, which guarantees an effective use of the Alsipercha / Alupercha by using the vehicle weight as counterweight. Includes 3 built-in adjustable supports to correct possible unevenness on the surface, providing an effective overhead anchor point up to 6,5m height. It can be used for up to 2 users connected simultaneously, and is CE-OSHA/ANSI-CSA compliance.
- Alsipercha / Alupercha + Post for reduced spaces (more info): A support of the Alsipercha / Alupercha specially designed for installation in limited spaces, thanks to the minimum dimensions of the base with just Ø 350 mm. With a strong construction, the POST is the perfect complement to use the Alsipercha / Alupercha mainly within industrial environments. Provides an anchor point up to 6,5m height, and It can be used for up to 2 users connected simultaneously. CE-OSHA/ANSI-CSA compliance.
- Alsipercha / Alupercha + Wall Bracket (more info): the Alsipercha / Alupercha can also be installed to reinforced concrete walls or columns, increasing the range of multiple applications significantly. The installation process is fast and simple, performed in just a few steps thanks to the intuitive holes and simplicity of the installation process. Consist of a set of brackets to be anchored over reinforced concrete surfaces, providing an unlimited anchor point height. Loading – unloading vehicles, preparing tanker trucks, cleaning or maintenances over machines, are some of the main activities that can be done in a safe manner with this combination. It can be used for up to 2 users connected simultaneously. CE-OSHA/ANSI compliance.
- Alsipercha / Alupercha + Mobile Base Unit (MBU) (more info): An anchor-free portable base easy to install and relocate by using standard forklifts, which provides an effective overhead anchor point of up to 6,5m with high versatility of use and easy to relocate wherever it is necessary. A perfect solution to have a multi-transportable effective anchor point for industrial environments, maintenance jobs, loading-unloading vehicles, and unlimited situations. With an easy and intuitive installation process, it can be installed and relocated in barely a few minutes. 25 Kg counterweights for easier assembly/disassembly and relocation. Protect workers at heights during maintenance work in industrial environments, loading and unloading trucks, maintenance on trains, and unlimited situations. It can be used for up to 2 users connected simultaneously. CE-OSHA/ANSI compliance.
- Alsipercha / Alupercha + RAIL (more info): The Alsipercha / Alupercha RAIL is the combination of the full range of Alsipercha / Alupercha accesories available, with a rigid lifeline that eliminates the possible pendulum effect in case of the fall of a user when working at heights. Perfect for the use within industrial environments, where the work over tanker trucks continues to be a critical issue, the combination with RAIL provides an effective and reliable fall protection solution at 6.5m height, admitting up to 2 users simultaneously per spans of 6m. Allows extensions in 6m spans, and offers the possibility of assembly in a fixed or foldable format, for those who need to move the whole system without interfering with other elements (overhead cranes, rail catenaries).
