CS2617 Tripod Mounting Bracket (For SRL-R)

CS2617 Tripod Mounting Bracket — Secure SRL-R Attachment for Confined Space Operations

The Palmer Safety CS2617 is a heavy-duty mounting bracket engineered to secure Self-Retracting Lifelines with Rescue capability (SRL-R) to the leg of the CS717 Aluminum Tripod. Constructed from hot rolled steel with a zinc plated/galvanized finish, it is built for the demanding conditions of confined space entry and retrieval work. Designed specifically for use within an ANSI Z359.4 compliant confined space system, this bracket provides a stable, semi-permanent connection point for retrieval devices. It is intended for contractors and safety professionals who require a reliable, purpose-built interface between their Palmer Safety SRL-R and the CS717 tripod.

Technical Specifications

Unlike generic mounting solutions, the CS2617 is purpose-designed to interface directly with the CS717 Aluminum Tripod leg, eliminating improvised rigging that can compromise system integrity. Its bolt-on installation creates a semi-permanent fixture, making it a more reliable choice than field-adapted alternatives for repeated confined space operations.

Key Features & Benefits

Secure Fit for SRL-R Units

The CS2617 is designed specifically to mount Palmer Safety SRL-R units to the CS717 Tripod, ensuring a precise and stable connection. A purpose-built fit reduces the risk of movement or misalignment during retrieval operations, which is critical in confined space rescue scenarios.

Easy Bolt-On Installation

The bracket bolts securely onto the tripod leg for a semi-permanent fixture, allowing crews to set up quickly and confidently. This straightforward installation minimizes setup time on the job site without sacrificing connection integrity.

Durable High-Strength Steel Construction

Constructed from hot rolled steel (SPHC-PO), the CS2617 is built to withstand the mechanical stresses associated with confined space retrieval operations. The zinc plated/galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance, extending service life in harsh or wet environments.

ANSI Z359.4 System Compatibility

The CS2617 is designed to work within an ANSI Z359.4 compliant confined space system, supporting compliance with recognized fall protection and rescue standards. This makes it a suitable component for contractors who must meet regulatory requirements on permitted confined space jobs.

Broad SRL-R Compatibility

The bracket is compatible with all Palmer Safety 3-Way Rescue SRL-Rs, providing flexibility across a range of retrieval device configurations. Contractors who operate multiple SRL-R models within the Palmer Safety lineup can use a single bracket solution across their equipment inventory.

Common Applications

Confined Space Entry and Retrieval

The CS2617 secures an SRL-R to the CS717 tripod for use during permitted confined space entry operations, providing a stable overhead anchor point for worker retrieval.

Tripod-Based Rescue Systems

When configured with the CS717 Aluminum Tripod and a compatible Palmer Safety 3-Way Rescue SRL-R, the bracket completes the mounting assembly required for a functional confined space rescue system.

Manholes and Underground Utility Access

The bracket and tripod combination is suited for use over manholes and underground utility vaults where a portable, stable retrieval anchor is required.

Industrial and Municipal Confined Space Work

Applicable to industrial facilities, wastewater treatment plants, and municipal infrastructure projects where confined space entry regulations mandate retrieval capability.
