Working side-by-side with Unitech`s Smart Interloc...
Working side-by-side with Unitech's Smart Interlock System (SIS) which ensures correct switching order through simulation based on real-time equipment status, the Smart LOTO System utilizes a smart LOTO Adapter and RFID Key that prevents the unexpected startup or release of stored energy prior to the completion of maintenance or service work.
The following SIS steps with the Smart LOTO System will ensure a maintenance task is performed safely and efficiently:
- Create an operation order to stop and disconnect field equipment on the Smart Interlock System host
- Create a LOTO order on the Smart Interlock System host by selecting the field equipment on the maintenance order
- Transmit the LOTO order to the Smart LOTO Adapter
- The Smart LOTO Adapter will automatically assign a LOTO key for the order. Until LOTO key is returned and LOTO order is completed, no operation can be performed on the service equipment.
