74

SAFETY

For safety reasons, only a few employees are allowed to operate and lock out switchboards and machinery. With colored padlocks it is clear

who has this authority. These regulations also apply in electrical and high-temperature surroundings: Use 74 series locks there.

HIGH SECURITY

Work safety is a high priority subject. With the locks of the 72 series, the safety of the employees can be significantly improved. Due to their color variety, the locks can be assigned to different persons or groups. Through this, it is clear who is locking out a machine and who has the responsibility to unlock it.

The ABUS41 Laminated Steel Series is a safety padlock that also features a high level of security. The robust steel body is not only resistant to physical attacks, but also to corrosion because of the special ETERNA™ plating on each of the laminates.

GROUP LOCKOUT

Maintenance or service work on big machinery is usually an organizational effort. Many different access points have to be locked out, many different groups of workers with different professions are at work. If all people involved had to lock out each access point, it would become not only a very timely effort, but it would also require a large number of padlocks.

The solution: The Safety Redbox™. Thanks to this product, only the foreman has to lock out all the access points and then put the different keys into the box. All other people involved lock the Safety Redbox™with their personalized padlock, thus all the keys are stored away until the end of the maintenance process.

ELECTRICAL LOCKOUT

Lockout

Hasp

To temporarily block access to switchboards, ABUS offers different varieties

of lockout hasps. With these, main power switches and thus the energy

sources can easily be locked out during maintenance or service work. This

is an easy and effective way to avoid accidental restarting of the machine.

TAGOUT –

THE IDENTIFICATION LABELS

Our strong, tear-resistant and writeable identification labels (tags) in two different sizes and made of polypropylene. This improves safety during maintenance: You can write hints and warnings on the tags or label them with an employee’s name or a department. Includes a resealable dispenser in which the identification labels are kept.

Safelex™ Universal-

Cable Lockout

There are situations when the right lockout device is not at hand. If a machine is malfunctioning and has to be serviced quickly, sometimes there is not enough time to search for a special valve, circuit breaker, or other device. The Safelex™universal cable lockout is the solution. It is univer- sally applicable, especially in cases where longer distances between two lockout points have to be bridged.

Valve Lockout

The regular maintenance of machinery is indispensable. In order not to endanger employees who are assigned to carry out the maintenance work, it is very important to lock out gate valves. The ABUS valve  lockout device is perfect for this job. It effectively blocks access to valves on pipes so that these cannot be turned on accidentally.

Ball Valve Lockout

To block most common ball valves (even those with more than two outgoing pipes), the ball valve lockout device is the right choice. If the flat lever is at an angle of 90° to the pipe, it can be locked by the device. With a padlock, the device ultimately gets fixated and the ball valve is locked. Accidental opening during maintenance work is therefore impossible.

Lockout device for motor protection switches

It is the first product of its kind on the market that can be used on all motor protection switches.

And that is true no matter what manufacturer or design the motor protection switch has. The E245 is attached to the motor protection switch. When the outer rotary handle is turned, a clamp is created. Then it is securely attached to the housing and prevents access to the motor protection switch. Patented. Only from ABUS.

Circuit Breaker

Lockout

Single circuit breakers can effectively be locked out by these devices. By turning the screw, the lockout device pinches single switches and blocks them from movement. During maintenance work, this procedure makes sure that switches and therefore the machines are not accidentally turned on

Multipolar Circuit

Breaker Lockout

This lockout device is used to keep mulit-pole circuit breakers turned off during maintenance work. To do this, the lockout device is clamped into the open space under the bridge over the switches; then the adjustment wheel grips the device and therefore blocks the switch off.

Power Plug

Lockout

In order to carry out maintenance work on machinery, some plugs have to be disconnected to interrupt the power flow. To make sure these plugs are not plugged in again by mistake, they can be locked inside this lockout device. The power plug lockout is available in two different sizes.
