Learn OSHA Lockout Tagout Procedures with LOTO EXP

LOTO EXP Lockout Tagout Experience

Choose from two different modes for learners: practice and evaluation. LOTO EXP runs on any standard PC, and learners use a game controller or mouse/keyboard to move around in a virtual environment where they practice safe lockout tagout procedures. Users work on equipment identification, control of hazardous energy, and problem solving skills. As learners work through the scenarios, they receive immediate feedback when mistakes are made.

LOTO EXP Is Available With Three Different Scenarios

Lockout Tagout Centrifugal Pump Scenario

Pump Scenario

Lockout Tagout Pneumatic Control Valve Scenario

Control Valve Scenario

Lockout Tagout Shell Tube Heat Exchange Scenario

Heat Exchange Scenario

With these three options, students gain valuable experience performing isolation for electrical energy and hydraulic pressure. Each scenario contains a common piece of equipment that operators will encounter at their plant or facility. The first challenge is the easiest to overcome, and as users progress, the complexity of the lockout tagout scenarios increase.

 

In practice mode, students will learn to perform these tasks as they are guided step by step. In evaluation mode, students are required to follow written procedures, and if a procedure is not followed, the session is halted so that the student can receive immediate feedback on what went wrong.

 

As a new operator, LOTO EXP emphasizes that employees follow procedures. The feedback they receive communicates how deviation from approved safety procedures can impact safety, the environment, and production.

LOTO EXP Comes With Everything You Need

Each license of LOTO EXP comes with a User’s Guide, and written lockout tagout procedures and drawings for each scenario.

 

LOTO EXP is a great introduction to energy isolation concepts, before practicing more complex lockout tagout scenarios on one of our Hands On Training (HOT) Units from Polaris.

LOTO EXP FAQs

LOTO, or lockout tagout, is a set of safety procedures in place to keep operators safe by disabling machinery to prevent the release of hazardous energy.

LOTO EXP, or Lockout Tagout Experience, is a 3D immersive training tool that allows users to learn lockout tagout procedures through a video game format.

They will learn to follow procedures, communication, and the basics of lockout tagout principles.

All you need is a computer, and we provide the rest: user’s guide, written procedures for each scenario, and drawings for each scenario.

LOTO EXP works with a pump, a control valve, and a heat exchanger. Users start with the easiest scenario with the equipment, and then each challenge after gets progressively more difficult. Students learn how to control energy isolation for electrical energy, hydraulic pressure, and other forms of pressure on these pieces of equipment.

Both options are available: practice and evaluation. Practice guides users through each exercise step by step. Evaluation tests a user’s ability to follow written procedures and communicate; if a mistake is made, the session immediately ends to provide feedback during the evaluation so students can understand what occurred.

Yes! connect the Xbox for Windows controller to your PC and the web version of LOTO EXP will recognize it.
  1. Your students can now be assigned practice and evaluation modules to complete on campus, or at home using their own PC.
  2. No more license dongles. Once the software is loaded into the LMS, you can assign it to students freely.
  3. The LOTO EXP assignments return grades into your online grade book automatically.
  4. Updates are as easy as installing any SCORM-compliant module into the LMS.
The web-based version comes with the same written procedures, P&IDs, and User’s Guide. Each of the scenarios comes in two separate modules, a practice and an evaluation version. There are three scenarios to practice learning about LOTO: Control Valve, Centrifugal Pump and Heat Exchanger
SCORM stands for Shareable Content Object Reference Model. This is basically how an LMS (learning management system) communicates with our system to get your animations up and running for students.
WebGL, short for Web Graphics Library, is based on JavaScript and enables the rendering of interactive 2D and 3D graphics within web browsers without the need for additional plugins or extensions. WebGL allows content developers to create visually rich and interactive web applications, training simulations, and visualizations.
