Key Operated Shut-off Valve (KO)
The Key Operated Shut-off Valve (KO) Accessory is a key operated shut-off valve for use on all Joraco Press Company models and equipment, as well as on other pneumatic devices that require a key operated shut off. Although all presses come with our standard “Padlock” supply shut off, this option allows maintenance personnel to make minor adjustments by locking off the air supply with a key device mounted right on the press. The key is retained in the lock when the valve is in the “ON” position and can only be removed in the “OFF” position. It is available in either "Keyed Alike" or "Keyed Differently" versions, and works well with any non-flammable, non-toxic, non-corrosive gas, except oxygen.
Locks Off Air Supply To Press – For Safe Maintenance Adjustments.
The Key Operated Shut-Off Valve has a heavy gauge steel main enclosure which is factory sealed to maintain lockset and valving integrity. The valve body is die cast aluminum and the spool, stem and spring and spring components are stainless steel. The valve itself is a 3-way type that bleeds the line downstream when it is in the “OFF” position. Seals are Buna N material. These construction features, plus its versatility and high CV, make the KO Accessory a great option for a wide range of applications.

THINK SAFETY – WORK SAFELY
IMPORTANT! The Joraco Press Company Key Operated Shut-off Valve (KO) is designed and sold for use as a general purpose pneumatic shut off. It can be used in those applications where a keyed device is required for various reasons. IT IS NOT DESIGNED, NOR SHOULD IT BE USED, AS AN ACTUATING DEVICE ON ANY PRESS OR OTHER TYPE OF PNEUMATIC MACHINE. IT IS STRICTLY DESIGNED FOR USE AS A SUPPLY SHUT OFF DEVICE AND SHOULD NEVER BE USED FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE! Because it is impossible to anticipate the conditions under which our equipment will be operated, additional devices and methods may be required to insure operator safety. In addition to conforming to all national, state, OSHA, and ANSI standards and codes, the buyer should consider the safety of the entire operation involving any press or machine, and see that any additional guarding, training, and maintenance deemed necessary is developed and enforced to protect the well being of the machine operator.
