Fortress mGard Mechanical Trapped Key Interlocks
Fortress mGard Mechanical Trapped Key Interlocks
Fortress mGard is a configurable family of mechanical trapped-key interlocks for enforcing a defined access and equipment-state sequence, using selected locks, key exchange and associated isolation or control arrangements in a complete machine architecture.
Review Summary
mGard is useful when a documented mechanical key sequence fits the required access and hazardous-energy design. Select and validate the complete arrangement, including personnel-access requirements where applicable; a certified component family does not automatically validate the machine or replace its approved isolation procedure.
