Vessel Closure Interlock
Product Model: H-VCiL
ENEX i-LOCK Series H-VCiL is the heavy industry Vessel Closure Mechanical Trapped Key Safety Interlock product range and is suitable for all Vessel Closure product designs. The H-VCiL ‘Patented’ lock portions and keys allow for either dual or single trapped key sequential or standalone operational procedures.
The basic principle of this safety equipment is to lock the Vessel Closure closed. For dual key system requirements, only if both rotary keys are inserted and rotated 90°, will the internal locking mechanism be released allowing the H-VCiL Actuator to be dis-engaged. For single key system, inserting and rotating the individual key, will release the internal locking mechanism allowing the H-VCiL Actuator to be dis-engaged.
Each lock portion and rotary key is uniquely coded to allow a truly safe operating sequence procedure. Once the H-VCiL Actuator has been removed, the initially inserted key will be trapped until the Vessel Closure is closed and the H-VCiL Actuator is re-engaged.
H-VCiL product range can be supplied with on/off switches and proximity limit sensors to confirm :
