Key Exchange X
The X type key exchange unit is designed to form part of an integrated safety system linking machine control and access interlocks. The key exchange is configured to trap and release keys in a pre-determined sequence, depending on the operating requirements of the safety interlocking system.
The box can be supplied in numerous key configurations: one key to release three or six keys to release four, or any combination to suit the operating sequence of the machine. The X type of box allows multiple in-out keys but is always supplied in one row (see the photograph below).
In all cases, the use of a key exchange box forms part of the integrated solution to machinery safety - Access to the machine.
Depending on the number of access points requiring control, this box would work in conjunction with Access interlocks and key switches (Powersafe).
