Closed Door Voltage Check Reduces Arc Flash Risk

 ChekVolt® Non-Contact Enclosure Voltage Portal reduces arc flash risks and increases electrical safety by providing maintenance personnel a no-touch voltage portal on the outside of grounded metallic electrical enclosures.  ChekVolt® interfaces allow maintenance people to use a non-contact voltage detector 'pen' or voltage checker to check line voltage before and after they open the main disconnect.  

ProfiBus Network Tap Interface

With built-in end-of-network termination switch circuit.  Supports a 12MB transfer rate.  Terminals for cables 'IN' & 'OUT'

Blown Fuse Indicator  A blown fuse indicator provides added safety for electrical maintenance personnel.  Mounted on the panel exterior, this device allows personnel to see the status of fuses before accessing the panel.  The VoltageVision® R-3FS Fuse Status Indicator provides personnel with LED external indication on the state of all three fuses, thereby giving personnel the ability to begin troubleshooting electrical problems while the enclosure doors are safely closed.

Control Panel GFI Outlet designed around Electrical Safety Press Release

Test/Reset GFCI receptacles in your panel is impractical under NFPA 70e. That’s why our NFPA Compliant GFCI utility outlets belong on the outside of your panel in a GracePort®!

The Inside-Outlet™ included with every GFI GracePort®

70ENFPA 70e COMPLIANT VOLTAGE INDICATOR  An "electrically safe work condition" is critical for electricians performing maintenance on de-energized systems.  The VoltageVision™ R-3W Power Warning Ale is hardwired into the main disconnect or circuit breaker, and flashes whenever hazardous voltage is present in any individual phase. Reduces arc flash by pre-verifying electrical isolation from outside the panel.

Voltage is the single determining factor if an electrical accident or an arc flash is possible--No voltage means: No accident, No arc flash.  After disconnecting power to an enclosure, electricians can "pre-verify" voltage while the enclosure is safely closed.  The risk of arc flash will be reduced because electricians know if there is power inside the enclosure, before re-verifying isolation with a meter. Unmatched Reliability due to dual redundant circuitry and no separate power supply.  The R-3W is powered from the same “voltage” that it indicates.
