Driver safety September 1st 2008 Pork Farms, baker of a wide range
of savoury products, protects its
employees from the threat of
driveaways using a Salvo safety
system from Castell.
Having reversed their trailer up
to the relevant bay, drivers collect a
Salvo Susie lock from the storage
cabinet in the office. As the lock is
fitted to the exposed emergency air
line coupling, effectively immobilising
the trailer, it releases a coded key.
Drivers insert the key into the
control box next to the bay, turning
traffic lights to red and allowing the
door to be raised and the dock
leveller positioned. The key stays
trapped until the door is fully closed.
When loading/unloading is finished,
the door is closed, the key released
and the Salvo Susie lock removed. More articles from Castell Safety International Ltd: |
