Clamp-On Circuit Breaker Lockout
The Clamp-On Circuit Breaker Lockout (CBL Series) is a highly advanced and robust safety device engineered to provide secure and reliable Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) solutions for electrical systems. Designed specifically for large and industrial-grade circuit breakers, this lockout device ensures that breakers remain firmly locked in the OFF position, preventing accidental or unauthorized energization during maintenance and servicing operations.
Electrical hazards are among the most critical risks in industrial and commercial environments. Circuit breakers control the distribution of electrical power, and improper handling or accidental activation during maintenance can result in severe injuries, equipment damage, or operational downtime. The Clamp-On Circuit Breaker Lockout addresses these risks by providing a strong mechanical barrier that physically restricts the movement of breaker handles.
Unlike conventional lockout devices, the CBL Series features a clamp-on mechanism, allowing it to securely grip the breaker handle without requiring complex installation procedures. This design ensures a tight and stable fit, even under demanding industrial conditions.
Manufactured from high-strength engineering plastics such as polypropylene, impact-modified nylon, and polycarbonate (PC), the lockout device offers exceptional durability, impact resistance, and long-term reliability. These materials are non-conductive, making them ideal for electrical safety applications.
The CBL Series is specifically designed for medium to high voltage breakers (120V to 600V) and accommodates various handle widths, making it suitable for a wide range of circuit breaker types used in industrial and commercial settings.
One of the standout features of this series is its multi-lock capability, allowing multiple workers to secure the same breaker simultaneously. This is particularly important in team-based maintenance operations, ensuring that equipment remains locked out until all personnel have completed their tasks.
With its tool-free operation, ergonomic design, and strong locking mechanism, the Clamp-On Circuit Breaker Lockout is an essential safety solution for industries such as power generation, manufacturing, oil & gas, construction, and facility management.
