The GK Series is designed specifically for use on machines where key removal brings
the machine to an immediate safe condition. It provides enhanced operator safety
when added to hinged or sliding guard doors, screens and protective covers on en-
closures. The GK Series is especially well suited for large door applications, typically
in the automotive plant floor environment. Its heavy duty construction withstands
harsh industrial environments where rugged, long-term durability is required.
A safety lockout device is also available for use with the GK Series. The lockout
device (GKZL2) is specifically designed to prevent a key from being inserted either
manually, or by the access door being closed while maintenance personnel are work-
ing on the machine. When inserted, the lockout device can accommodate up to four
padlocks to prevent unauthorised removal of the device.
