  • Chalwyn Valves

    Chalwyn Valves

    Typically used in Petrochemical plants and areas where petrol and other flammable materials are present, Chalwyn valves provide emergency overspeed shutdown protection for diesel engines and are the most effective way of preventing runaway situations. They work by blocking the engine's air intake system, cutting off an uncontrolled external fuel source and the air required to keep the engine running.

    When operating diesel engines in Petrochemical plants and other hazardous environments such as petrol station forecourts, a sudden release of flammable gas or hydrocarbon vapour can happen at any time and be instantly drawn into the engine's air intake. This external fuel source would prevent the machine from shutting off, meaning the engine would continue to accelerate rapidly. Chalwyn Valves are the most effective way of preventing these runaway situations, providing emergency overspeed shutdown protection by blocking the engine's air intake system, cutting off the uncontrolled external fuel source and the air required to keep the engine running.

  • Telematics

    Telematics

    Telematics can be added to your machine and act as an additional layer of security. Not only do they provide real-time monitoring, but they also help to prevent unauthorised use, limiting access to either IPAF-trained personnel only; or specific individuals with a unique pin code. Geo-Fencing can also be setup, further strengthening site security by ensuring the machine can only be operated in a pre-defined area.

    Tool Tethers

    When working with powered access, there is a risk of dropping tools out of the platform, which if working high enough, could prove fatal. Tool tethers offer a safe and effective way of preventing this and can be easily secured to a wristband, harness or fixed anchoring point on the platform.
