Master Lock S3910 Lockout Tagout Pressurized Gas Valve Lockout,Red

The Master Lock pressurized gas valve lockout is a thermoplastic hollow, circular shell that surrounds a pressurized gas valve handle and combines with a padlock (sold separately) to help protect against valve opening, and fits most valves up to 3"/7.6 cm diameter, with or without handle guards. This lockout consists of two halves; one slightly smaller half fits inside the larger half when not in use, for installation in confined spaces and a compact storage footprint. Where the two halves meet, flanges from each half align to form two locking holes, providing the ability to require multiple authorizations to allow operation of a locked out valve. Red thermoplastic is electrically nonconductive and functions in temperatures from -50 to 350 degrees F (-46 to 177 degrees C). Three (English, French, and Spanish) warning labels with rewriteable areas for task-specific details are included. This lockout device is part of a lockout/tagout (LOTO) safety procedure required at facilities where pressurized gas valves need to be isolated during maintenance and repair.

Lockout/tagout (LOTO) safety procedures require that lockout devices meet Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 1910.147(c)(5) standards for quality assurance. LOTO devices use color, warning labels or tags, and sometimes a physical barrier to help prevent machine operation or power activation during maintenance and repair.

Master Lock manufactures padlocks, combination locks, and related security products. The company, founded in 1921, is headquartered in Milwaukee, WI.
