Frequently Asked Questions

What is a trapped key interlocking system?

A trapped key interlocking system is a safety mechanism used in industrial settings to ensure that equipment can only be operated or accessed in a controlled and safe manner. It uses a series of keys that are trapped in locks, preventing incorrect or unsafe actions while ensuring safe operation and maintenance procedures.

Where can a trapped key interlocking system be used?

This system is primarily used in high-risk industries, such as energy, railway, and data sectors. It is ideal for controlling the safe deactivation and reactivation of high and medium-voltage electrical equipment, as well as ensuring overall personnel safety.

How does the RONIS trapped key system improve safety?

The RONIS trapped key system prevents incorrect operations by ensuring that only authorised personnel can control equipment or access certain areas. This adds an additional layer of security, particularly in environments with dangerous machinery or high-voltage installations.

What industries benefit most from a trapped key interlocking system?

The most common industries to benefit from trapped key interlocking systems include energy, railway, data, and other sectors where high or medium-voltage electrical equipment is used. These systems are critical for ensuring safety in high-risk environments.

Can the RONIS system be customised for specific safety needs?

Yes, the RONIS trapped key interlocking system is highly adaptable and can be tailored to meet the specific safety requirements of different installations. Customisation ensures that the system effectively manages the unique risks of each operation.
