Premier Factory Safety

Premier's lockout tagout system goes beyond the OSHA standard. Every lockout procedure includes the following...

• Exact procedures for releasing, locking out and verifying zero energy for every source.
• Machine specific information including machine name, description, serial number and location.
• Plan-view drawing of the machine.
• All energy sources identified on the graphic for easy locating.
• A "You are here" is identified on the graphic making it easy to orient yourself and locate all energy sources quickly.
• Unique identifier for the overall procedure using a barcode.
• Physical tags hung on or near each energy source making them stand out.
• Company specific lockout notification policy.
• A set of highly durable, best in class placards for each machine.

Our NFPA 70E visual signage is developed for each location where arc flash and shock hazards are likely to be present. The NFPA 70E placards include technical information, PPE requirements, lockout protocols, and other safety procedures required to comply with OSHA and NFPA requirements.

An arc flash can result in temperatures up to 35,000 degrees fahrenheit. This is four times hotter than the surface of the sun and can result in fatal burns up to five feet from the arc, and severe burns at distances up to ten feet away. Arc flash blasts can create pressure waves that can damage hearing and cause a concussion resulting in memory loss.
