In the heart of modern logistics, loading bay safety is one of the most delicate challenges in preventing workplace accidents. A miscommunication between the warehouse operator and the truck driver can turn into a serious accident or costly operational bottlenecks.
To eliminate every margin of error, Stagnoli is launching the ASFSW230, a traffic light selector switch: a manual 230V device specifically designed for controlling flows in industrial loading bays. This device works as a true loading bay signalling kit, essential for ensuring perfect coordination between external manoeuvres and warehouse activities.
One device, three levels of protection
The ASFSW230 has been developed as an advanced loading dock signalling device to meet the real needs of those who work in the sector every day:
1. For the Safety Manager (RSPP): control and prevention The core of the device is immediate risk management:
- Internal visual feedback: thanks to the integrated red and green lights, the internal operator sees exactly the status of the external traffic light, avoiding unauthorised departures or dockings.
- Immediate Emergency: the robust emergency mushroom button allows the system to be stopped instantly. In case of danger, pressing the button turns both the internal lights and the external traffic light to RED, signalling a total stop.
- Regulatory Compliance: Product compliant with directives 2014/35 EU (Low Voltage) and 2011/65 EU (RoHS).
2. For the owner: operational efficiency and durability Investing in this loading dock safety system means optimising loading and unloading times:
- Industrial Reliability: Designed to withstand extreme temperatures, from -10 °C up to +60 °C, it is ideal for warehouses subject to strong temperature fluctuations.
- Low Consumption: With a power of only 4.6 W, it guarantees continuous use without weighing on company energy costs.
3. For the installer: fast and safe wiring Ease of installation is guaranteed by a rational design:
- Standard power supply: 230 Vac operation, ideal for integration into existing industrial electrical panels.
- Dedicated terminal block: Clear connection diagram for phase, neutral and traffic light outputs.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the emergency state work on the ASFSW230? When needed, pressing the mushroom button activates the emergency state across the entire system. Both the ASFSW230 selector inside the warehouse and the external traffic light turn red to signal an immediate stop.
Is it possible to know from the inside if the external traffic light is green? Certainly. The ASFSW230 is equipped with integrated traffic light indicators that act as a repeater, showing the system status in real time:
- Internal RED light: indicates that the external traffic light is GREEN.
- Internal GREEN light: indicates that the external traffic light is RED.
Can the selector handle 230V traffic lights? Certainly. The ASFSW230 is designed to manage 230 V traffic light outputs with common, red light and green light.
