Stops drive-aways
May 1st 2008

Diesel engine manufacturer, Cummins, is so satisfied with Castell's Salvo drive-awayprevention system at its Daventry site that it has at ordered a second system for its Darlington facility.

After reversing a trailer to the relevant bay, drivers collect a Salvo Susie lock from a storage cabinet inside the office. As the lock is fitted to the exposed emergency air line coupling (effectively immobilising the trailer), it releases a coded key. Drivers insert the key into the control box next to the bay and turn it, changing the traffic lights from green to red and allowing the dock leveller to be positioned. The key remains trapped until the dock leveller is returned to its starting position.
