Paul Reilly Company - Vehicle Restraints - Serco® PitBull® Safety-Loc®

Serco® Vehicle Restraint shave introduced a new level of safety and security to loading docks in thousands of warehouses and distribution centers by integrating powerful and effective restraints with instantaneous, clear, non-verbal communications systems.

Serco provides a complete line of non-impact, low-profile restraints to fit virtually any application and budget.

The rugged, low profile, non-impact design of the Serco PitBull Safety-Loc provides predictable performance capable of engaging virtually any rear impact guard configuration to ensure the highest level of safety, versatility and reliability at the loading dock. With its 9" stored height, the PitBull is an ideal solution for truly low-profile applications such as decline approaches and special trailer configurations.

The PitBull has a bite that locks on tight, engaging a trailer’s rear impact guard and securing it more effectively than rubber wheel chocks. This provides forklift operators with a solid and secure platform for moving goods.
Serco PitBull Safety-Loc restraints are most compatible with the new rear impact guards because of their non-impact, low-profile design.

As of January 1, 1998, the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration requires that all semi-trailers be equipped with rear impact guards following these guidelines:

Maximum 22" off of grade
Minimum 4" x 4"
Must be capable of 5" inward flex for energy absorbtion

Integrated Controls	N/A When integrated with Serco vehicle restraints, dock levelers, doors and other dock devices are prevented from operating until the trailer is firmly locked in place, providing an added level of safety and efficiency to your dock.
Digital Cycle Counter	N/A A factory or field-installed digital cycle counter module is available that monitors cycles and safe engagements to provide clear and accurate diagnostics of restraint operations.
Advanced Communications Package	N/A The programmable controls support clear dock-to-driver communications with interior and exterior stop and go light signals as well as an exterior caution sign.
Advanced Wiring Board Technology	N/A Significantly saves interior panel space making room for additional options and integration of other dock equipment controls into the same panel.
Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)	N/A Serco PitBull Safety-Loc restraints are available with a solid-state programmable logic controller (PLC) with advanced "real-time" diagnostic capabilities. A coded display system provides the operator with information on the restraint’s status.
Patented Dual Locking Positions	N/A PitBull® Safety-Loc® Restraints feature dual locking positions at 7" and 11" from the face of the dock bumpers. The unique dual locking design restricts trailer movement while providing additional horizontal range for recessed, wider and bent rear impact guards. PitBull Safety-Loc restraints can effectively engage virtually any rear impact guard configuration.
Advanced Safe Engagement Signaling	N/A PitBull Safety-Loc restraints are available with advanced safe engagement signaling to detect positive engagement of the locking arm. If contact is not made or is lost during the loading process, the restraint automatically returns to the stored position and signals the operator by flashing amber and red LED warning lights on the control panel.
Security Keypad Lockout / Override	N/A A numeric keypad option is available on powered PitBull Safety-Loc restraints to provide security lockout/override, which restricts disengagement of the restraint to authorized users with security code access only.
Auxiliary Power-Down Release	N/A In the event of a power failure, powered PitBull Safety-Loc restraints are available with an auxiliary power-down to allow speedy, safe release of the trailer.
Interlocking Capability	N/A All powered restraint functions are controlled from the standard push-button control panel or as a component of a Combo or Master Control Panel. Restraint controls can be interlocked with other dock functions such as building security, door operators and dock levelers to prevent operation unless the vehicle is secured safely.
