TREOTHAM Automation has released the Eichner
Multifunctional Gate Box, an interlocking guard system.
Designed for the protection of safety doors on machines
and systems, the units are linked to machine controls
which prevent the opening of access doors via the
Multifunctional Gate Box (MGB) until the machine has
safely stopped.
The MGB comes with an integrated lockout mechanism
with an optional escape release handle. The optional
escape release is intuitive to operate and enables persons
to exit the danger area quickly and easily. When working
in the restricted area, the bolt tongue can be locked open
with up to 3 padlocks in the integrated lockout bar,
preventing unintentional activation
The unit can be mounted on frames, grilles or profiles and
the handle can be mounted level or rotated 90, 180 or
270 degrees without disassembly.
