EMKA IP69K stainless steel hygiene compression latches<\/a><\/strong> with rounded\/double flat or triangular key inserts are EHEDGE Certified to make equipment in food processing and other hygiene areas more secure against unauthorised access.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are specially engineered to offer tamper and vibration resistance for most industrial installations and are able to withstand frequent high pressure washes where appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, EMKA point out that correct installation and care in use is important for long term effective service of this type of quarter turn latch fasteners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to minimise vulnerability to bacterial build up especially in food processing areas EMKA Hygiene latches have a highly-polished stainless steel surface and rounded design. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Care in correct orientation during installation enables water and contaminants to drain off easily, so reducing accumulation, while use of a special hard plastic key prevents damage to the lock surface, where scratches from a metal key could otherwise offer a site for bacterial build up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In assembling such a lock to an enclosure door, it is also important to ensure that it is fitted to a sufficiently smooth surface and regularly cleaned\/maintained in order to preserve integrity of the gasket and its seating.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
