Operation

Illustration shows SALUS-S (Mounting Orientation: Hand 1)

Illustration shows SALUS-H (Mounting Orientation Hand 2)

The interlock prevents access to the hazardous/guarded area by means of the bolt which can be released only when the key is inserted and turned. The key is then trapped and can only be removed once the guard or gate is closed, reinserting the bolt.

When the access door is locked, the side bolt is locked and the key is free.
Through inserting and turning the key into the access interlock you can release the bolt. This will trap the key into the lock.
The bolt is now retracted and access door can be opened. The key is trapped.

Usage

The SALUS single key automatic access interlock should be used to allow safe access to potential hazardous and dangerous areas.

The SALUS interlock is not designed for security purposes, such as safe or external access to buildings. The SALUS interlock has been vibration tested to (TBA), if the unit is to be subjected to vibration levels higher than this, then anti vibration pads should be used.

No hazardous substances were used in the manufacture of this product. The product can be disposed in standard waste.

Installation

The Mounting Bracket can be mounted on the static frame or the door, depending on opening direction of the door. On the frame, for doors that open inwardly. On the door, for doors that open outwardly. The mounting should be positioned so that adequate clearance is available for bolt engagement.

The Salus unit is then presented to the mounting plate at an angle and clipped on by engagement with the internal tangs.

Once the unit is clipped on, the two dog screws are tightened (using the security bit supplied), trapping the mounting plate and securing the unit for use.

The Bolt should then be aligned and mounted, using the M6 or M4 screws provided. The design of the bolt allows for some misalignment to the housing.

The SALUS should be mounted on the guard using anti-tamper fasteners to prevent unauthorised removal.

The SALUS must be installed by a competent and qualified person who has read and understood these instructions.

Force required to shear lock bolt is 24 KN.

Maintenance

Periodic visual checks should be carried out by the site manager/safety officer.

Do not lubricate lock barrel with oil or grease, use CK Dry Powder Graphite if necessary.

In case of detected defects please contact your nearest Castell Support Department for further actions.

Please see Contact section for contact details.

Records of key and lock coding will be maintained at Castell. If you loose a key or require replacement keys then please contact Castell Sales. You may be asked to complete a disclaimer.

Application

A typical application of the SALUS is machine guarding to ensure a machine is shut down before access is allowed.

This system involves a KS20 key switch that breaks the machine safety circuit when the key is removed.

The key can then be taken to the SALUS door lock to enable access to the machine.

The machine cannot be restarted until the door is closed, the bolt is replaced and the key is removed and taken to the KS20.
