Safe blind lockout for the widest range of pipes


Brady Corporation offers a new pipe blind lockout solution that can be applied to the widest range of pipes. By easily and temporarily locking pipe blinds in place, companies can improve safety by preventing the release of gas, steam and hazardous liquids while pipe maintenance is ongoing. Increased safety and compliance The Pipe Blind Lockout can provide a very visual, physical barrier that acts as a deterrent for touching pipe blinds while maintenance is ongoing. When used with a properly installed pipe blind, the lockout device and a padlock reduces the risk of accidental release of pipe contents. This enables companies to increase workplace safety and also improve compliance with EU Guidelines 89/655 and the European Norm 1037. Non-sparking material The Pipe Blind Lockout has been UL tested for ISO 80079-36:2016 Explosive Atmospheres and falls within the parameters of the norm. The device is built out of a heavy duty 304 stainless steel with rugged, cast aluminium locking bars and a powder coated polyester finish. Widest range of pipes With 3 sizes to choose from, Brady's Pipe Blind Lockout is applicable on the widest range of pipes, including all pipe diameters from 13.2 mm to 1219.2 mm. The device's extendable locking arm enables users to optionally lock not 1, but 2 pipe bolt sets for additional security. Up to 4 workers can apply a padlock directly on the device.

“Delba Electrical continues to remain the benchmark for how all electrical rewinder processes and operations should be managed,” says SKF’s Anton Theunissen, Manager - Distribution Development, Southern Africa, after awarding the electric motor solutions specialist its sixth recertification as a SKF Certified Electrical Rebuilder in September 2016. Factors such as substandard motor repair and rebuild, stringent production requirements or incorrect transportation, storage and installation are key drivers of premature electric motor failures; subsequent unplanned production stoppages can lead to devastating cost implications. SKF’s objective with introducing the Certified Electrical Rebuilder Programme to the South African market in December 2006 is to enhance motor reliability and extend mean time between failures (MTBF) through improving motor repair effectiveness. Audited every two years, the Programme is a three-way partnership between the electric motor rebuilder, SKF’s authoris
