Control protects operators from accidental restart after power interruption

The Sensing-Saf-Start® motor control from Rockford Systems LLC helps prevent accidental machine startup after a voltage drop or power interruption. In the event of a power interruption, the unit automatically disconnects power to the machine so that when it is restored, the machine will not start up even if the power switch is in the "on" position. The machine operator must press the reset button on the unit to restart the machine and resume normal operation.

The control instantly upgrades older machines to the latest safety standards, according to the company. It is suitable for replacing old, frayed, or ungrounded power cords. The unit is designed for use with equipment driven by small motors operating on 120 VAC and connected to a power source by a 14-ga., three-wire, flexible cord.
