The short answer: In general, only labelling does not create the physical obstacle that the lock provides. If the energy separation element can be locked, personal lock and label should be used together. Additional measures to provide equivalent protection if locking is not possible should be detailed.
What is the label?
The label shows the danger, the person who applies, the date and interference prohibition. but it does not physically fix the slider or valve.
What is the task of lock?
The personal security lock mechanically prevents the unauthorized reopening of the energy separation element and keeps control over the employee.
Why is the alert label weak alone?
The label can be deleted, missing or misinterpreted. Physical lock creates an additional barrier against human error.
How to choose the right application?
The structure of the energy separation element, appropriate product, number of employees, group work and related legislation are assessed together.
