Why Interlocks?
Interlocks are mechanical, electrical or other types of devices, the purpose of which is to prevent the operation of hazardous
machine functions under specified conditions. Interlocking can be used to help protect personnel and equipment, enforce
processes, and improve productivity.
More information on interlock devices and their use on machinery can be found in ISO 14119, Safety of machinery - Interlocking
devices associated with guards - Principles for design and selection. Further information on trapped key interlocking can be
found in the technical specification ISO/TS 19837.
Why Mechanical?
• Mechanical interlocking can be used to control hazardous energy sources.
• A key from one isolation control device can be used in an intermediate transfer (key exchange) device to release keys for
multiple guards.
• Personnel keys released from access locks can be used to proactively prevent unexpected start up of machinery as per ISO
14118.
• Mechanical systems reduce wiring and fault masking risk.
