PETZL VOLT Harness: technical performance and comfort for working at height

The PETZL VOLT harness is a benchmark in personal protective equipment (PPE) for working at height.
Designed for installers, industrial technicians, maintenance staff and energy-sector professionals, it offers a unique combination of safety, ease of donning and lasting comfort.

Ergonomic design and quick donning

The automatic FAST LT PLUS and FAST LT buckles allow the harness to be easily put on and removed with feet on the ground — no need to re-adjust between uses.

• FAST LT PLUS buckle (waistbelt): opens and closes quickly, even with gloves.

• FAST LT buckles (leg loops): allow dressing without lifting the feet.

• DOUBLEBACK self-locking buckles: ensure precise adjustment on waistbelt and shoulder straps.

Adjustable padding on the leg loops and shoulders improves ergonomics and ensures even weight distribution.

All-day comfort

The VOLT harness is designed for intensive, prolonged use:

• Semi-rigid, wide waistbelt and leg loops with lightweight, ventilated structure.

• Padded, separated shoulder straps prevent neck chafing.

• LADDER CLIMB ventral attachment point – compatible with sliding fall-arresters, lanyards and descenders.

During vertical movement, this attachment point distributes the load between waist and chest for better posture and balance.
In case of a fall, it automatically shifts to the sternal point to maintain an upright position.

Versatility and functional organisation

The PETZL VOLT is engineered for complex environments:

• Foldable side attachment points to avoid snagging.

• MGO connector holders keep energy absorbers securely stowed until deployment.

• Equipment loops and compatibility with PETZL accessories such as CARITOOL and TOOLBAG for efficient tool management.
