Lock out Tag out (LOTO) systems are part of the basic collective and individual protection elements for maintenance work in industrial installations.
The use of these systems is necessary whenever work is to be carried out in areas where there are potential hazards due to residual energy or risk from automatically moving parts (e.g., tank interiors or robot work areas).
LOTO procedures act on the energy causing the potential risk. De-energizing and blocking, in such a way that the performance of the maneuver is ensured and blocked by the same person who is going to perform the action. Thus, in order to reactivate the potentially dangerous energy, it will always be necessary the positive action of unblocking by the person who was performing the work action in the risk zone.
The implementation of LOTO procedures implies the establishment of robust work processes.
From the Safeway360 team we offer solutions to achieve security through the implementation of LOTO systems. We are up to date with the latest developments in the market and best practices. Evaluating and advising on the best measure to implement in each case.
We advise and supply all the necessary elements for blocking and signaling:
LOTO padlocks.
LOTO padlock box.
Labels LOTO.
Various LOTO locking devices.
LOTO panels.
