Benefits of Fluidsentry
Reduce Risk with Control of Fluid Power
The valves are designed to prevent unexpected start-up or movement of machinery by controlling the pneumatic or hydraulic energy.
Safety Redundancy
Devices offered with dual channel safety and dual channel exhausts (pneumatic) and tank outlets (hydraulic).
Safety Up Time
The Fluidsentry range has been designed with ‘up time’ in mind, that’s why Fluidsentry products all proudly boast ‘ single tool swap out’.
Robust and Durable
Fortress Fluidsentry products are built for longevity to guarantee a long operational lifetime.
Fully Serviceable
Perform a ‘single tool swap’ and send the affected unit to us. We can rectify, re-certify, and return the unit to you.
Retrofittable
Easily integrate Fluidsentry into your system. Installation is quick and easy with four pre-threaded holes on the base of the unit.
Reduce Risk with Control of Fluid Power
Valves can be interfaced with guard locking interlocks, ensuring power is in the off state before enabling access.

Fluidsentry Features
Network Communications Model
Fortress offers an add on module to enable safety information to be communicated on ethernet networks.
Monitor Pressure in Low Frequency Access Applications
Confirm pressurised systems are in a safe state. Non-adjustable, non-tamperable device to confirm zero pressure in your system.
Highest Safety Level for Access Control
Valves can be interfaced with guard locking interlocks, ensuring power is in the off state before enabling access.
Mounting Plates and Connectors
Devices can be pre-fitted on mounting plates, reducing installation time and costs. Multiple connector configurations are available with the respective mating cables in different lengths.
Heads and Actuators
A variety of actuators for hinged and sliding guards. Market leading misalignment capabilities to cope with guards’ movement and variability in machine guarding installation.
Monitored and Controlled Access
Interlock monitoring to detect guard opening. Interlocks can also include a solenoid controlled locking functionality for guard locking or locking for the protection of process.
Feature
Pneumatic Monitored Safety Valves
Directional control valves for pneumatic safety applications in five port two position sliding spool type with static seals, mounted on a safety manifold configured for three port two position operation.
Feature
Hydraulic Monitored Safety Valves
Dual directional control valves mounted on a specially manufactured mainfold for hydraulic safety applications.
