Key adaptor

摘要

Fortress Interlocks has added the new E1 Extracted Key Adaptor to its amGard range of modular safety gate switch interlocks. The E1 has been designed to ensure that the door to haz- ardous machinery cannot be opened without removing the safety key, and the machinery cannot then be restarted until the key is returned. Fortress says that it has achieved this by designing a mechanism that traps the actuator in the head until the key is removed which then allows the 'gate' to swing over the keyhole. While the actuator remains out of the head, the gate remains over the keyhole preventing the key being returned to the lock.
