Pneumatic Lockout Devices
Pneumatic lockout devices help isolate compressed air and pneumatic connections before maintenance. They are useful in workshops, production lines and packaging machinery where stored or supplied air can move equipment unexpectedly.
Quick guide: Use pneumatic lockout to block or control compressed air connections so equipment cannot be reconnected or pressurised during servicing.

FAQ
Why isolate compressed air?
Pneumatic energy can move cylinders, actuators or tools unexpectedly if pressure is restored during maintenance.
Is bleeding pressure still necessary?
Yes. LOTO should include isolation, release of stored energy and verification according to the site procedure.
