In European and American countries, there have been specific requirements for the use of safety locks very early. The US OSHA “Occupational Safety and Health Management Regulations” regulations on the control of hazardous energy clearly stipulate that employers must establish safety procedures and lock appropriate locks according to the procedures. Tagout devices are installed in energy isolation devices and stop machines or equipment to prevent accidental energy supply, activation, or release of stored energy, thereby preventing injury to employees.
First, what is a safety lockout? A safety lock is a kind of lock. It is to ensure that the device energy is absolutely turned off and the device remains in a safe state. Locking prevents accidental activation of equipment, which could result in injury or death. Another purpose is to serve as a warning. 2. Why use a safety lock? According to the basic standard to prevent others from misoperation, use targeted mechanical tools. Lock out when a hazardous work occurs. In this way, when the employee is inside the machine, it is impossible to start the machine, and no accidental injury will be caused. Only employees who come out of the machine and unlock the lock themselves can start the machine. If there is no safety lock, it is easy for other employees to start the equipment by mistake, causing serious personal injury. Even if there are “warning signs”, there are often cases of inattentiveness. 3. When to use the safety lock 1. When preventing the equipment from starting suddenly, you should use the safety lock to lock and tag out. 2. When preventing the sudden release of residual power, it is best to use the safety lock to lock. 3. When it is necessary to remove or pass through the protective device or other safety facilities, safety locks should be used; 4. Electric maintenance personnel should use safety locks for circuit-breaking equipment when performing circuit maintenance; 5. Machine maintenance personnel should clean or lubricate machines with moving parts. Use safety locks for switch buttons 6. Maintenance personnel should use safety locks for pneumatic devices of mechanical equipment when troubleshooting mechanical failures.
