NEMA 4/12 Control Box with Timer, Start and Stop Buttons, Red Emergency Stop Button, Lockable Main Disconnect, 24V DC Control Supply, and Wire terminals for safety interlock switch.		 Guard Enclosure for Morse Drum Rotator
Guard Enclosure with Safety Interlock, so that drum rotator automatically shuts of if enclosure gate in opened.

Enclosure outside post-to-post dimensions:
L88" x W52" x H63.25" (224 x 132 x 161 cm)

Note: OSHA Requirement for enclosure with safety interlock IMPORTANT - OSHA holds the employer responsible for the suitability of design and application of tools and machinery.
Install all Morse Rotators in accordance with requirements for enclosure and safety interlock, etc. One way to accomplish this is with a Morse enclosure with safety interlock, so the rotator automatically turns off when enclosure door is opened. Power connections and motor controls must also comply with applicable local codes.

For OSHA compliance in the USA, see OSHA subpart O.1910.212(a)(4) "Barrels, containers, and drums. Revolving drums, barrels, and containers shall be guarded by an enclosure which is interlocked with the drive mechanism, so that the barrel, drum, or container cannot revolve unless the guard enclosure is in place."
