Key to safe operation
06 January 2014
Smith Flow Control (SFC) has designed a range of horizontal key cabinets to hold operational keys and ensure safe application under secure supervisory control.

Each interlocked system has a dedicated, engraved tag location within the key cabinet to ensure total integrity and all keys are visually displayed inside the cabinet during periods of normal operation.
Once the initial key has been retrieved from the central key cabinet, an operator can begin the sequence of key transfer events that allows dangerous machinery and critical valves to be operated in a safe and pre-determined way, eliminating human error.
