Q:
Why is Safety Signal one of the hottest
ideas in dock safety?
A: Safety Signal is designed to be the COMMUNICATION
line between the dock worker and the truck
driver. This communication line has proven
to be the key factor in dock safety. Additionally,
the Red/Green light signals are universally
accepted protocol.
Q: How does Safety Signal differ
from other products on the market?
A: Safety Signal is not just another Red/Green
light package. The automated control panel
uses LED lights, a convergent photo
eye (in lieu of a mechanical switch) and
a patented outside light box specifically
designed to project the Red outside light
beam directly at the driver’s mirror.
Q: What is the purpose of the convergent
photo eye?
A: Safety Signal uses a convergent photo
eye in lieu of a whisker switch that can
fail mechanically or a manual light switch
that is subject to the possibility of human
error.

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.
