ALL-in-ONE Stainless Steel 316 Trapped Single Key Solenoid Release with Rear Release, Request Button and Emergency Stop Button
IDEM’s SKORPION Trapped Key Exchange System is growing and over the next few mailshots new products will be unveiled that will be available soon. This mailshot features the stunning ALL-in-ONE SS-TS-SR-RR.
The SS-TS-SS-RR is shown above fitted with a Gate Bolt that can be used to secure large guard doors from attempts to access hazardous areas.
When the actuator tongue is inserted into the switch (guard closed) the key can be rotated and therefore trapped and the main safety contacts are closed – making the machine able to run.
The Actuator Tongue can then only be released when the internal solenoid in the switch is energised. This then enables to the key to be turned and released, the safety contacts open and the actuator tongue can be removed. The key can then be used on other parts of the system to release devices in the Trapped Key System.
Another great feature is that it can be used with safety delay timers to allow a “run-down” time prior to the solenoid being energised prior to releasing the key and actuator tongue.
Shown above in the image with the Rear Release – this provides a manual means of escape from within the guarded area. The Red Button and the Red Key Release Handle can be used to release the lock and the key simultaneously from within the guarded area in the event of an emergency. Both buttons protrude through the guard frame to enable access to the switch from inside.
