Crane Man Basket - Four Person - Crane Rescue Basket - Crane Gear
Man Basket
Crane Man Baskets or personnel baskets, are elevated work platforms designed to lift personnel to various heights for tasks such as maintenance, repairs, and construction. These platforms are typically suspended from cranes, aerial lifts, or forklifts, providing a secure and stable environment for workers to perform their duties. The primary goal of suspended platforms is to ensure the safety of workers operating at heights, adhering to stringent OSHA regulations. These platforms are engineered to meet specific safety standards, ensuring that they can handle the maximum intended load while providing necessary safety features with the latest lifting technologies.
Crane Rescue Basket
Crane Rescue Baskets should be on every job with work above a hoist, or below grade. Our man lifting baskets can be also used as a Crane Rescue Basket. We have an drop down end gate that can offers entrance to a 84 inches of length on the inside. The average rescue basket is 80.5 inches long. Get these powder coated in white and hang a medical cross on them showing what it’s for and be ready for this task at any time.
Safety Built In
Our Baskets come with OSHA Compliance Built in. We meet ASME B30.23 for Personnel Hoisting for safe operation. There are four tie off locations in this unit to hook in your body harness. Overhead protection is built into the unit in case anything is dropped from overhead which will keep the workers safe. They come with a door that latches and swings in to prevent accidental opening. Handrails are around the entire perimeter and a grab rail is inside at the top to keep all of the fingers safe. The intermediate rail is well above the 21 “ requirement. And the welding is done by certified welders. The load bearing capacity of the unit is 1257 lbs for people and tools inside. This is our Working Load Limit. You will need to stay within this rated capacity to be OSHA compliant and to keep the workers safe.
Rigging will need to be supplied locally as the requirements differ from location to location. The bridle legs should have four for the platform. If a fifth is required for personnel, then that is where the local regulations are best served by buying it locally. We can supply it from the US for an additional charge. You’ll need to share your local codes to get the right bridle. We will make sure the lifting technologies used match your regulations.
OSHA Regulations
OSHA regulations are crucial in ensuring the safe use of suspended platforms. These standards cover various aspects of design, construction, and operation to protect workers and ensure a safe working environment.
Design and Construction: Personnel baskets or man lifting baskets must be designed and constructed to meet OSHA standards, including requirements for working load limits, safety devices, and personal protective equipment. This ensures that the platforms can safely support the maximum intended load and provide necessary safety features.
Operational Standards: The operation of suspended platforms must comply with OSHA standards, which include requirements for safety inspections, training, and certification.
Safety Regulations: OSHA mandates the use of safety equipment and personal protective equipment to protect workers. This includes the use of guard rails, safety latches, and other safety devices to prevent falls and accidents. ASME B30.23 is very specific about how these Personnel baskets are constructed. We follow it to the letter.
Key OSHA regulations related to suspended platforms include:
1926.1431 - Hoisting Personnel Standard: This standard regulates the use of crane-suspended man baskets, ensuring they are used safely and effectively.
1926 Subpart CC - Cranes & Derricks in Construction: This standard covers the use of cranes and derricks in construction, including the safe use of suspended platforms.
1926.502 - Fall Protection: This standard mandates the use of fall protection equipment, including personal protective equipment and safety devices, to protect workers from falls.
Employers must ensure compliance with these regulations to provide a safe working environment for their employees.
