Manual Lockout L-O-X ® Valves with Soft Start EEZ-ON ® 15 Series Product Overview

Energy Isolation for Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) – Lockout with Soft-Start

The L-O-X ® with EEZ-ON ® operation valve combines shut-off certainty with gradual pressurization upon start-up.

Combining two functions critical to safety concerns in any application, the ROSS L-O-X ® valve with EEZ-ON ® operation provides the shutdown and the gradual start-up (or, “Soft-Start”) capabilities today’s systems require. In addition, because the L-O-X ® valve with EEZ-ON ® operation is two units in one, you eliminate the need for multiple components.

The valve permits the gradual increase of downstream pressure in the pneumatic circuit that has just been actuated. The same unit also features a shut-off and lockout of system air to limit inadvertent actuation. Exhaust port is threaded for the installation of a silencer or a line for remote exhausting.

MANUAL LOCKOUT L-O-X ® VALVES WITH SOFT-START EEZ-ON ®(3-Way 2-Position Valves)

Valve Operation

Valve Closed		With a short push of the blue handle inward, the flow of supply is blocked and downstream air is exhausted via the exhaust port at the bottom of the valve. It is required by OSHA and ISO 14118 that the L-O-X ® valves with EEZ-ON ® operation be padlocked in this position to prevent the handle from being pulled outward inadvertently when potential for human injury exists or servicing machinery.
EEZ-ON® Function	Modular Style Valve	The blue handle will only shift part way due to a mechanical stop button allowing only partial flow from inlet to downstream causing the pressure to increase at a slower rate.
EEZ-ON® Function	Classic Style Valve	With the blue handle pulled out, the adjustable needle valve (accessed through top of handle) setting determines the rate of pressure buildup.
Valve Open	Modular Style Valve	Pressing the mechanical stop button allows the blue handle to be shifted completely open allowing full flow from inlet to downstream.
Valve Open	Classic Style Valve	After the blue handle is pulled out and pressure downstream has gradually increased, the valve automatically changes to a fully open state, allowing full flow from inlet to downstream. Full flow is achieved at approximately 50% of inlet pressure. 5.
