The Castell Salvo Safety system links the articulated trailer to the loading bay door during the loading or unloading of goods.
The Castell Salvo Safety system comprises of two sections:
Additionally, a data gathering and analysis software can be added to the system - Salvo DockMonitor.
The Salvo Susie is fitted to the emergency air line coupling when the trailer has been reversed into position at the bay. After successful fitment, a Salvo coded key is released from the Salvo Susie, locking the unit firmly onto the coupling. The coded Salvo key can only be released once the Salvo Susie has been fitted to the brake coupling. The coded Salvo key is then taken to the corresponding loading bay door and used to open the door.
The secret of the Salvo system is that only one Salvo key exists per bay, thus ensuring that the door can only be opened ONCE the trailer has been secured in place. To ensure the integrity of the system, each bay will have a different code.
Salvo Susie 2 3 4
The Salvo Susie is a key operated mechanical lock designed to fit on to all UK trailer, emergency brake line connectors. Its purpose is to prevent re-connection of the air brake hose, thereby immobilising the trailer. When fitted, the Salvo Susie can only be removed with the permit Salvo key.
Salvo Control Panel 5
The Salvo Control Panel (SCP+) is the main interface between the Salvo couplings and associated bay door controls. The SCP+ comprises of a wall mounted panel with easy to use Castell interlock key switch to allow operation of the bay. There is also panel indication to indication status and operation. Installation is via plug in terminals on the inside door of the panel. 6 When bay door is open, the Salvo key is trapped in the SCP+.
Salvo Wireless DockMonitor 7
Wireless technology now removes the expensive and cumbersome fit of hard wiring.
Using the latest wireless technology, Salvo Wireless DockMonitor can measure, display and record data that will enable you to access and monitor live bay usage information. This enables you to spot and implement efficiencies in your business avoiding the unnecessary costs associated with expansion or additional resources.
