Loading
Dock Safety continues to be a major
challenge for most companies. Whether
your business is large or small,
manufacturing or distribution,
accidents are real and can be fatal.
Safety Signal uses the universal signal
protocol – utilizing
Red and
Green
LED Lights. It is a simple,
yet effective means to provide safety
at your loading dock door.
|
Safety Signal’s highly engineered
design also provides customers with
not just a Red
Light/Green
Light package, but
a Dock Communication System that offers
advanced safety, energy savings
and no maintenance.
SAVES
TIME & MONEY
Safety
Signal automates your loading dock by
providing a clear, distinct communication
signal to your loading dock workers
and truck drivers. It eliminates the
need for manual communication systems
that are often unreliable. Safety Signal
offers amicroprocessor – based
control panel, convergent photo eye
and LED light signals to ensure reliability
and productivity with no maintenance.
With optional interlocks for your dock
light, fan, and leveler, Safety Signal
automates your loading dock area to
improve productivity and reduce energy
consumption.
SAFETY
IS A MAJOR CONCERN
Safety Signal
goes beyond ordinary communication packages
by using 180° LED lights on the
inside control panel to ensure dock
workers are aware of an unsafe situation
at the dock. The outside light box
not only uses high intensity LED lights
but each circuit is designed to handle
two LED’s. Therefore, if one LED
were to fail, the light output is more
than enough to generate a clear, distinct
signal. The outside box has a patented
light process that channels the flashing
red
light
signal directly into the mirror of the
truck so the light can’t be ignored.
This patented light process also reduces
communication error to other truck drivers
at nearby loading docks and protects
the light signal from interference caused
by direct sunlight. Safety Signal uses
a convergent photo eye mounted above
the door in lieu of whisker switches
that are old technology and unreliable.
SAVES
ENERGY...GO GREEN
Safety
Signal’s interlocks are not only
a great safety feature for the dock
worker, but they also take care of turning
equipment on/off – saving you
costly energy consumption. The interlock
is engaged by the photo eye. When the
door opens/closes and the photo is engaged/disengaged,
the interlock turns the light and fan
on/off automatically. Depending on the
model, there can be two outlets on the
bottom of the inside control unit to
plug in a fan and light. The leveler
can also be interlocked with the Safety
Signal so that it can only be turned
on after the door has been opened. With
LED’s used in the inside and outside
boxes, Safety Signal is not only energy
efficient it is also maintenance friendly.
Additional
Engineering Advantages
- Safety
Signal’s high intensity flashing
RED LED light on the outside box
is designed for extreme brightness
and is directed to the drivers mirror
so it's not a distraction
to other driver’s in the area.
- Control
boards can be programmed
to interlock electric/hydraulic
and pneumatic levelers.
- Optional
mounting brackets are available
for inside and outside box installation.
-
The convergent photo eye is a non
mechanical system (no friction wear)
and mounted above the door. Therefore,
there is no maintenance and it’s
safe from forklift damage.
