Lock Out / Tag Out Signs

Lock Out / Tag Out Signs | North Jersey | NationwideLock out/tag out signs, or LOTO signs, help prevent accidents while servicing equipment and machinery. This keeps you in compliance with OSHA standards for maintenance safety. To make sure proper lock out/tag out procedures are being followed in your facility, The Sign Center offers a full line of markers for North Jersey. Additionally, lock out/tag out signs inform workers of possible dangers of the machinery they use and what could happen if this equipment is started while undergoing repair or maintenance.

What Are Lock Out/Tag Out Systems and Standards?

In an effort to reduce the worker injury and death rates, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) introduced the Lockout/Tagout Standard in 1989. The standard covers equipment and machine service and maintenance over which the unexpected start up, release of stored energy, or energization could cause injury. The rules apply to chemical, electrical, thermal, hydraulic, and mechanical energy sources.

Lock out devices, like valves, circuit breakers, disconnect switches, and slide gates, make certain that, until the lockout device is removed, an energy isolating device cannot be used. A combination lock, key, or other positive means is used by a lockout device to hold an energy isolating device in a safe position and prevent equipment or machine energization. Lockout devices must be substantial enough to prevent removal without unusual methods or excessive force.

Lock Out / Tag Out Procedure Posters North Jersey | NationwideTag out devices are prominent warning devices, like tags, that indicate an energy isolating device and its equipment must not be used until removal of the tag out device. Unless an employer can demonstrate that a tag out system is enough for full employee protection, a lock out device needs to be used. Tag out devices must be attached by hand, self-locking, non-reusable, and non-releasing with a minimum unlocking strength of 50 pounds.

There must also be a written program for how these safety precautions are to be carried out. We can help you with creating copies of the procedures to place in prominent locations in your facility.
