Rotary Lock from SERV Trayvou Guarantees Safety for Electro-Mechanical Applications


Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Wednesday, April 21, 2010 -- (Business Wire India) -- French safety specialist SERV Trayvou has launched in India the PERTK, a rotary lock for electro-mechanical applications. The PERTK is designed to isolate the electrical supply of high-inertia machines, such as mixers and crushers or robotic assembly lines. The device's safety contacts allow the condition of the control circuit to be determined by a separate value, for example zero speed, pressure or temperature.

The lock works according to the trapped-key principle. When it receives an authorisation signal, an LED lights up to let the operator know that it is now safe to access the dangerous area. The operator then pushes the lock's button, removes the previously-trapped key and gains access to the installation. While the key is retained by the operator, the machine cannot be re-started.

Supplied as standard with a light and an energy-saving button, the lock is available in 24, 48, 110 and 220V AC or DC versions. The safety contacts can be configured as 4NO, 2NO/1NC or 3NO/1NC. The number of contacts can be increased according to requirements.

The PERTK is also available without a button or warning LED, and can feature an electromagnet with a 100% duty ratio. Whatever the chosen option, the lock can be supplied in an IP- or ATEX-compliant enclosure. The PERTK's small dimensions make it easy to install and the lock can be used in harsh environments.
