Interlock System

Need for Interlocking (in partnership with Petrosafe)

    • Safety is an important part of any industry, especially in hazardous industries such as Oil & Gas and Chemical Industry. These industries work at a great speed and are subject to hazardous environments and rapid changes. These same industries are controlled by humans. Human error due to fatigue, distraction, stress, illness and one or other unforeseen circumstances cannot be ruled out.
    • Ordinary padlocks are used in critical places in refineries and process plants. However these padlocks have serious limitations and due to these limitations any type of error during uncontrolled process operation can result in damage to the plant costly equipment, human life and consequential losses due to stoppage of production in the plant. This can be avoided by introducing system checks in a process.
    • Linear key Interlocking Systems ensures that human error is eliminated by following correct process to be performed in predetermined steps. In the event when a mistake is made then the operator will not be allowed to proceed.
    • Therefore creating a safe industrial environment in every possible way is a wise investment. And your choice of supplier of safety systems is an important one. Here’s where PSS can help.
