This device allows for the fast and efficient release of hazardous stored energy (compressed air) from the door dump system components (reservoir, filter, valve, cylinder and connecting lines) in one easy motion. Simply push the red knob to exhaust the system. Add a safety pad lock or OSHA approved “LOCKOUT/TAGOUT” hasp for multiple safety locks and the door dump system is depressurized and can safely be accessed for servicing. Once service procedures have been completed, the system is easily re-pressurized by removing the lock or hasp and locks and pulling the knob out. Use of this device is a huge time saver and adds a layer of safety for personnel while servicing or working near the door dump components on a rail car.
The Saf-T-Lok isolation valve is based on the same “sliding shoe” design used in our Second Generation Railcar Valves for decades. This design is extremely tolerant of the rust, scale and moisture typically found in railcar airlines. In addition to use on railcars, this valve can be used on any type of outdoor equipment, machinery or device that needs to be safely exhausted of hazardous stored energy (compressed air) per OSHA 1910.147 “LOCKOUT/TAGOUT” procedures.

• High flow design allows rapid release of hazardous stored energy (compressed air)
• Can easily be retrofitted to any bottom dump car door circuit
