Other Components That May Be Required

Main Power Disconnect Switch
A main power disconnect switch may have been supplied in the package shipment. This switch is designed to
disconnect the primary voltage to the machine and lock it out. Refer to the enclosed wiring schematics for proper wiring
of this switch.
OSHA regulation 1910.217 (b)(8), ANSI standards B11.1 and B11.3 require that:
A main power disconnect switch capable of being locked in the off position shall be provided with every control system.
If the machine already has a main power disconnect switch, it must be checked for the locking off and lockout feature.
Some switches use construction which can be easily altered mechanically to comply with this requirement. If this is
not possible, or an electrical disconnect switch is not provided, then you must obtain and install a proper disconnect
switch. Please contact Rockford Systems, LLC if a disconnect switch is needed.
Transformer—Part No. RSF-021
An enclosed transformer—Part No. RSF-021—may have been supplied with this shipment. This enclosed transformer
is a 100-VA, 230/460-V primary and a 115-V fused secondary unit. The fuse is 1 A, 230 V and it is accessible from the
outside of the transformer housing.
Air lockout valve
(If furnished—See enclosed manual KSL-098)
An air lockout valve is usually attached to the inlet end of a filter-regulator-lubricator assembly.
This three-way valve is operated with the manual movement of a slide that opens and closes the
valve. The valve can only be locked out when the slide is in the closed position. Downstream air
is automatically exhausted when the valve is locked out.
Foot Switch (If furnished—See enclosed manual KSL-001)
Foot Switch
Part No. CTD-011
12
To meet OSHA and ANSI safety requirements, a foot switch must be protected
from unintentional operation. This foot switch pedal is protected on the top and
both sides by the cast cover and the front is protected by the hinged flap. Always
follow the wiring schematics for proper wiring connection and be sure to maintain
the foot switch in first-class condition.
It is the responsibility of the employer (user) to always provide an
appropriate guard and/or device to prevent bodily injury whenever a
foot switch is used to initiate a machine cycle.
The guard and/or device must be properly installed, used, and
maintained. The safeguard must prevent personnel from receiving
bodily injuries.
