Switch Room Grey Cabinets Small REMSAFE was designed in response to demand for improvements in safety and production when electrically isolating minesite conveyors, but the same safety-rated automation technology applies for virtually any fixed plant such as crushers, screens and car dumpers that need to be safely isolated from their energy sources.

Australian and International Standards specify when machinery must be isolated from its drive energy sources and locked out before maintenance or other tasks can be started.
The REMSAFE Technical Information sets out performance and safety specifications. International patents are pending.

REMSAFE is available exclusively from licensed provider ICM Group WA Pty Ltd in Perth, Western Australia.

REMSAFE provides the verified isolation required for tasks such as:

Planned and unplanned maintenance and repairs
Removing tramp metal from a conveyor
Replacing conveyor idlers
Clearing blockages
Brake testing and maintenance
Belt trimming, alignment and repair
Mechanical and structural maintenance generally
Cyclone tie-down
