How to perform lock out and tag out?

I have emphasized the importance of isolation of hazard of dangerous and released the several reports about tag out and lock out recently. But in the realia, many company does not want to afford the cost to lockout devices, also think it is not very suitable for some factories. So we consider the concept of how to adopt lockout and tag out to realized the purpose of insecurity warranty.
I would like to recommend some brand of insecurity items, such as QVAND, Baibu, Masidun, all are famous brand ahead of other factories of security field with competitive price, good feedback and service.
01. The nature of safety guaranteed.
It means to control the energy, such as chemical, electricity, mechanical, gravity energy etc. we adopts variety of measures like PPE, safety protection measures to avoid these energy to influence our healthy.
For example, Mr Zhang is maintaining the pipeline (medium is acid), but it is far away from here so he closed the valve ahead of the time, but have not lock out and tag out the pipelines, Mr Li is unknown about
that when he having a inspection, he was hurt by erupted acid when he opening the valve.
The above accident was happened under the situation of failure to control the energy.
02. How to carry out hang the tag?
The lockout is referring the professional padlocks and high cost of purchase. It can achieved 50% of safety purpose through the way of tag out. It is a good idea compared to the project without management on beginning.
So how we carry out the tag out?
1. Make the template of tag out, the content of template is different from the traditional tags, the content is more detailed impossible. It is including some content as below.
* Operating time (date, time)
* Operating personnel
* Operating items
* Prohibited items
* Warning words and signs
2. Clearly contents of work, to complete the content according the above requirements.
3. Make sure the location of ta gout, we need to make clear that the tags is with function of warning to the operator. To prevent the operator hurt by hazard energy after opened the device accidentally.so the tag out site must be on the valves or switch device.
4. Carry out the training. Set the related regulations to training our workers and to show how correctly the operation it is.
