Product catalog summary
Overview of Process Interlocking: Ninety Degree Lock (NDL)
The Ninety Degree Lock (NDL) is designed for valves that operate with a 90º rotation, such as ball, butterfly, and plug valves. It can be installed without altering the host valve, maintaining the valve's original characteristics. The NDL replaces the original valve lever with a stainless steel sliding lever of the same size.
Key Features and Specifications
  • Constructed entirely from stainless steel AISI 316, ensuring durability and resistance to harsh environments.
  • Features a robust, reliable, and simple design with minimal parts, requiring no maintenance or lubrication.
  • Installation is straightforward and can be performed without plant shutdowns or valve modifications.
  • Designed to be tamperproof and resistant to sand, dirt, snow, and ice.
  • Includes an integrated secondary safety feature to prevent unauthorized unlocking.
Mechanical Key Interlocking System
The NDL uses a mechanical key interlocking system with two keys: one for the locked open position and one for the locked closed position. The system ensures that keys are unique and coded to guarantee the required sequence of operations.
Additional Features
  • Stainless steel 316 sliding lever for flexibility and operator-friendly use.
  • Key slots are protected with self-sealing weather strips.
  • Includes a purpose-machined bracket and mounting plate for secure installation.

Ninety Degree Lock (NDL)-1

Process Interlocking Ninety Degree Lock (NDL) This type of lock can be installed on any type of valve that operates with a 90º rotation, like ball-, butterfly-, and plug valves. The NDL can be mounted without any alteration to the host valve, and the characteristics of the valve remain unchanged. The lock is installed as an integral part of the valve, with the original valve lever removed and replaced by the NDL with a new, same-sized Stainless Steel sliding lever The principle of mechanical key interlocking is the transfer of keys. Each lock is executed with two keys: one for the locked open position and one for the locked closed position. When the valve is open the “open” key is released, can be removed ready to operate the next lock in the sequence, which will share the same code. All keys are unique and depending on the sequence NETHERLOCKS will determine the codes to guarantee the required sequence. Technical Specifications: o Fully made of stainless steel AISI 316 o SS AISI 316 lever is provided in the same size as the original o Robust, reliable and simple design with a minimal amount of parts o Maintenance free, No grease o Tamperproof o Mounting is very easy and can be done without shutting down the plant or making modifications to the valve o Invulnerable for sand, dirt, snow, ice, etc. o Thoroughly tested to withstand the most extreme operating environments o Integrated second safety to prevent unlocking with an unauthorized object other than the designated linear key
