How PESDs Transformed Torrence Casting

In the fast-paced world of industrial manufacturing, safety and efficiency are paramount. Torrence Casting, a leading name in metal casting, recently embarked on a journey to enhance their electrical safety protocols without sacrificing productivity. Their experience sheds light on how innovative solutions like ChekVolt and the Voltage Test Station can revolutionize workplace safety.

The Challenge at Torrence Casting

Torrence Casting faced the common industry challenge of maintaining rigorous safety standards while keeping operations efficient (read our full case study here). Although essential for worker safety, traditional lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures were time-consuming and impacted productivity. The company needed a solution that would streamline these procedures without compromising compliance or employee well-being.

Introducing ChekVolt and the Voltage Test Station

By integrating ChekVolt and Voltage Test Station into their safety protocols, Torrence Casting found the perfect balance between safety and efficiency.

  • High-Impedance Protected Test Points: These features allow for the verification of energy isolation points without direct exposure to electrical hazards. Workers can confidently test for the absence of voltage, reducing the risk of electrical accidents.
  • LED Voltage Indicators: Visual alerts provide immediate awareness if voltage is present, ensuring that employees are informed before proceeding with maintenance tasks.

The Impact on Safety and Efficiency

The adoption of these products led to significant improvements:

  • Enhanced Safety: With clear visual indicators and safer testing methods, the risk of electrical incidents decreased markedly.
  • Improved Productivity: Streamlined LOTO procedures meant less downtime. Employees could perform necessary safety checks more quickly, keeping projects on schedule.
  • Regulatory Compliance: The solutions are compliant with OSHA regulations and NFPA 70E standards, giving Torrence Casting peace of mind regarding legal obligations.

Why This Matters to You

If your operations involve electrical systems, the challenges faced by Torrence Casting might sound familiar. Implementing ChekVolt and the Voltage Test Station can offer you:
