Interlocking systems for hazardous areas
Even knowledge, skill, caution and written procedures cannot permanently guarantee safe operation during production or maintenance. At times, human failure even defeats the most advanced electronic safety measures.
Alcatraz designs, manufactures and installs interlocking systems to prevent potentially hazardous situations caused by errors in the operating sequence of industrial processes. With Alcatraz interlock systems, the operator is simply forced to follow a predetermined sequence by means of a mechanical coded key transfer.
Interlocks for critical installations
Alcatraz interlocks are successfully in use in the petrochemical, chemical and offshore industries. The automotive, food and beverage industries have also discovered the advantages of the Alcatraz products.
