Electrical accidents remain one of the most significant workplace hazards across industries. According to statistics from Safe Work Australia, 142 workers died from electrical contact between 2003-2015. In Great Britain, electrical injuries to workers average one fatality every 10 days, while the U.S. recorded over 1,600 deaths due to electrical incidents in just one decade. These sobering statistics highlight why proper electrical safety monitoring is essential in any industrial environment.
Remlive: The Electrical Safety Warning Indicator Specialist
For over 25 years, Remlive has been keeping workplaces safe with their innovative electrical safety warning indicators. Their products provide an essential visual reminder that an electrical circuit is live, significantly reducing the risk of accidents. Today, we're showcasing two flagship products from REMLIVE's safety lineup that can transform your facility's electrical safety protocols.
The REMLIVE RL-24i Isolator Check
Peace of Mind During Plant Isolation
The REMLIVE RL-24i Isolator Check provides operators with a positive verification system when isolating plant equipment. This critical safety device creates electrical isolation between the DIN rail unit and the door-mounted display unit, ensuring maximum operator protection.
Key Features of the RL-24i Isolator Check:
- Visual Safety Confirmation: The door unit installs through the front of control panels or switches, providing operators with clear live/isolation status at a glance.
- Super-Bright Indicators: Flash once per second when a live supply is connected, ensuring high visibility.
- Enhanced Lockout/Tagout Procedures: Provides a quick and easy method of proving isolation during LOTO procedures.
- Broad Voltage Range: Monitors voltages from 24V to 1000V and individual phase lines, even after phase isolation.
- Maximum Safety: Low voltage to the door ensures operator protection.
- Easy Installation: 30.5mm door footprint and 22.5mm DIN rail width for simple installation in new or existing control panels.
- Maintenance-Free Operation: Once installed, requires no ongoing maintenance.
- Regulatory Compliance: Supports compliance with IEC 60204 - Safety of Machine tests, with extensive global certifications.
The RL-24i Phase Indicator
Simple Monitoring for 3-Phase Supplies
The RL-24i Phase Indicator offers a straightforward solution for monitoring three-phase electrical supplies up to 1000 VAC. The door-mounted Display Unit gives users clear indication of each phase and shows correct phase sequence or failure conditions.
Key Features of the RL-24i Phase Indicator:
- Electrical Isolation: Complete isolation between the DIN rail mounted Monitoring Unit and the Display, maximizing operator safety.
- Customizable Configuration: Available in two versions – with Display Units indicating either Clockwise Correct or Anti-Clockwise Correct phase rotation.
- Clear Phase Visualization: Four dual light-emitting diodes (L1, L2, L3, and N) illuminate to show the status of each phase.
- Phase Failure Detection: Immediately shows if a single phase or multiple phases fail, with the LED associated with the failed phase turning off while the Neutral LED illuminates.
- Neutral Voltage Monitoring: With Neutral and Earth connected, the system monitors Neutral voltage even when phases are correctly isolated.
- Simple Installation: Installs easily on standard DIN rails with a 30.5mm door mounting hole.
- Comprehensive Protection: Embedded 500mA fuse protection upstream of internal surge suppression.
Key Value Propositions
REMLIVE's engineering philosophy centers around several core value propositions that make their products indispensable in high-risk electrical environments:
- Quick and easy method of proof to check isolation and to enhance lockout/tagout procedures, ensuring technicians can verify power status before beginning work
- Bright, flashing LED's display live/isolation status on the front of a control panel, providing unmistakable visual cues about electrical conditions
- Broad range of voltages - Monitor voltages & phases from 24V to 1000V, making these devices versatile across nearly all industrial applications
- Simple way to monitor correct 3 phase rotation, preventing equipment damage and operational failures
- Easy to install with simple maintenance, offering "set and forget" reliability with no ongoing maintenance costs
Industry Applications
Protecting Workers Across Sectors
REMLIVE products have proven their value across numerous industries where electrical safety is paramount:
- Mining: Where harsh environments and high-voltage equipment create significant hazards
- Automation: Ensuring safe maintenance of complex automated systems
- Manufacturing: Protecting technicians during equipment maintenance and troubleshooting
- Automotive: Safeguarding workers servicing production line equipment
- Construction: Providing clear power status indicators in temporary and permanent installations
- Oil & gas: Enhancing safety in hazardous environments with additional explosion risks
Remlive Real Customer Testimonials
REMLIVE users consistently report significant safety improvements after installation:
"Skilled people not following procedures is common. The REMLIVE RL-24i prevents technical staff forgetting or getting out of phase when testing panels."
"The pressure to fix machines is enormous – the REMLIVE RL-24i helps to minimize production down-time."
"Fitting REMLIVE RL-24i extended the life of our panels. It's a fit and forget device with no ongoing cost."
Regulation Compliance Made Simple
The Electricity at Work Regulations state: "Adequate precautions shall be taken to prevent electrical equipment, which has been made dead in order to prevent danger while work is carried out on or near that equipment, from becoming electrically charged during that work."
REMLIVE products help facilities meet this critical regulatory requirement by providing a clear, unmistakable visual indicator of electrical status. As safety regulations emphasize, "It should never be assumed that equipment is dead because a particular isolation device has been placed in the OFF position."
Designed for Universal Application
Both the RL-24i Isolator Check and Phase Indicator are built to international standards with extensive certifications:
- Complies with UL 61010-1
- CSA C22.2 No. 61010-1 E115083
- Rated at IP66 & NEMA 4X for USA
- CE and UKCA certified
