Locking Device Eaton LOCK-KLV model 178930 by EATON

Eaton LOCK-KLV model 178930 by EATON is a mechanical locking device engineered to provide secure physical locking in industrial electrical and mechanical systems. It is designed for applications where controlled access and safe operation are essential, offering a robust solution for securing components on distribution boards and other equipment. The device integrates with standard installation points and is compatible with related accessories for distribution boards.

Advantages

The LOCK-KLV locking device delivers reliable mechanical retention and simple operation without requiring electrical power. Its durable construction ensures long-term stability in industrial environments, while the compact form factor facilitates installation in confined spaces. The product supports controlled access procedures by providing a physical barrier to unauthorized operation, and it works with accessories intended for small distribution boards.

Suitable for

• Securing components on small distribution boards
• Locking switches, breakers or mechanical actuators to prevent unauthorized operation
• Industrial control panels requiring physical locking for safety procedures
• Maintenance and lockout-tagout applications where mechanical isolation is needed

Key specifications

• Function: Mechanical locking device for controlled access and secure retention
• Material: Robust construction suitable for industrial use
• Size/form factor: Compact design for installation in confined panel spaces
• Compatibility: Designed to interface with distribution board mounting and related accessories
• Power: Passive mechanical operation (no electrical supply required)

How to use

Install the locking device at the designated mounting point on the distribution board or equipment according to the system layout. Position the LOCK-KLV so that it mechanically prevents movement of the target component (for example, a switch or breaker handle). Securely fasten the device using appropriate hardware; confirm that the locking mechanism engages and prevents operation when in the locked position. Remove or release the lock only when it is safe to restore operation and following site-specific safety procedures.

Usage recommendations

Verify compatibility with the target panel and accessories before installation. Use the device as part of a documented lockout-tagout or access control procedure and inspect periodically for mechanical wear or damage. Ensure that only authorized personnel handle locking and unlocking operations to maintain safety and compliance.
