Drop Test Manikin
The Drop Test Training Manikins is manufactured by Ruth Lee Ltd and distributed exclusively in Ireland by Phoenix STS (Safety Equipment Ireland). As the authorised sole distributor for the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, we provide full sales support, product guidance, and after-sales service.
As the name suggests, this manikin is the perfect choice for testing fall arrest equipment and harnesses. It is has a more rigid trunk to reduce slumping when suspended in a harness and will allow you to properly assess the safety of your fall arrest equipment.
Features
- Similar in construction to the Duty Range manikins but utilises closed-cell foam to the trunk to provide greater rigidity and reduce ‘slumping’ when using a rescue harness.
- Anatomically correct weight distribution gives the ‘feel’ of an unconscious person - well suited to pole top or tower rescues.
- Realistic sizes and weight 100kg! - will demonstrate the difficulties of dealing with an adult unconscious casualty
- Strong Polypropylene webbing loop to the back allows the manikin to be easily hauled into position prior to training.
- Strong enough to be dropped from 2 or 3 storeys with no damage - these manikins are tough!
- The Polyester is waterproof, making it suitable for training in wet or dry conditions as it can be easily cleaned and dried.
- Soft body joints eliminate the risk of pinch welts and bruising, a common injury when using plastic bodied manikins.
- Protective consumables including, coveralls and boots, greatly extended the life of the manikin and help save you costs.

The Drop Test Manikin is a specially designed anthropomorphic test device (ATD) used to replicate the physical behaviour and forces acting on a human body during fall or impact scenarios. Built to withstand repeated drops from varying heights, this manikin is essential for testing fall arrest systems, rescue equipment, personal protective gear, and packaging safety. Constructed from high-strength, impact-resistant materials, the manikin maintains structural integrity while accurately distributing weight to simulate a real human subject. It is commonly used in industrial safety testing, R&D labs, workplace training environments, and product certification processes. Key Features: Impact-Resistant Design: Withstands repeated high-force impacts without damage to internal structure. Realistic Human Form: Accurately simulates weight distribution and size of a typical adult for realistic testing outcomes. Instrument-Ready (Optional): Can be fitted with sensors or data loggers to measure force, acceleration, or shock levels. Durable Exterior: Built for long-term use in both indoor and outdoor testing environments. Customizable Configurations: Available in various weights and sizes to suit specific test standards or applications. The Drop Test Manikin provides a consistent, safe, and measurable way to evaluate the performance and safety of systems designed to protect people or transport fragile loads. It is a vital tool for manufacturers, engineers, safety officers, and compliance testers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57iAiySrDSc Extensively Used By Manufacturers of Fall Arrest Equipment.
