Lock Tag Verify (LTV)

Lock, Tag, Verify, or LTV is a safety-focused procedure to ensure that the energy within a process is controlled in all events where employees are potentially exposed to the harmful effects of an uncontrolled energy release.

LTV procedures rely on a deep understanding of all forms of energy that can be present in a system. Resolution® EHS consultants provide expert direction in selecting and implementing LTV devices and procedures to control the following types of energy:

– Stored energy
– Chemical energy
– Thermal energy
– Mechanical energy
– Hydraulic energy
