ROPS height stands for Roll-Over Protective Structure. It is a safety measure used in agricultural and construction vehicles that helps protect the occupants of the vehicle from being crushed by a rollover. ROPS consists of a frame or cage mounted to the vehicle chassis, often with additional components such as seat belts, canopies, and windshields. The height of the ROPS structure must be specifically designed to provide sufficient clearance between the occupant's head and any obstacles on top of or around the vehicle during an overturn event.
Benefits Of Adequate ROPS Height:
• Improved visibility while driving
• Greater protection from overhead objects in case of an overturn event
• Reduced risk for injury due to falling objects
