New Cable Lockout Device Suitable For Wide Range of Applications
Features Ergonomic Design and Choice of Two Cable Types, Including Nonconductive Nylon
MILWAUKEE - (October 25, 2004) - Brady makes lockout of hazardous energy sources faster, more efficient and effective with the introduction of the All Purpose Cable Lockout. It is the most versatile, easy-to-use cable lockout available, and the only device of its kind to feature a choice of two different cable types. In addition, its unique design helps ensure that switches and valves are locked down tight.
Locking out control points before equipment is serviced is an important part of a workplace safety program. Unlike other lockout devices, the All Purpose Cable Lockout makes it possible to select the right cable for the job. It lets users choose from two types of flexible cable. The cable is offered in 1/18" non-conductive nylon, and in 3/16" rust-resistant sheathed metal.
The interchangeable cable feature makes it possible to use the nonconductive nylon cable to lock out disconnect switches and other electrical control points, and the sheathed cable to lock out large valves and other mechanical energy controls.
The ergonomic design makes it easier to properly tighten the cable. This provides more secure restraint, preventing accidental activation of the switch or valve when the lockout is in place.
The lockout is designed for use in tough industrial environments, with a durable nylon body that withstands impacts, corrosion and chemicals. Easier to handle than heavy, rust-prone metal chains, the lightweight and portable cable lockout accommodates up to four locks, facilitating group lockout without a hasp. A built-in loop keeps the cable neatly coiled for easy transport and storage, and prevents the loose end of the coil from dangling and causing a hazard when the lockout is in use.
The All Purpose Cable Lockout from Brady is just one component in a complete energy control program. Call 1-888-272-3946 for information on Brady's safety, facility and equipment identification products, or visit www.bradyid.com.
