Your context is not clear: what is this sign actually intended to show? I have grave doubts about the answers proposed, simply from the plain English meaning of the words, but more context is needed to be sure...

'à consigner par mesure de sécurité'

Well, I can't say I'm that confident of my French, hence the quotes, but that's certainly what it means: 'this item must be locked out in order to create a safe situation'

I'm far from convinced that my other colleagues' answers have correctly captured this meaning, though as I'm not the FNS, I stand to be corrected on that!

'consigner' in this sense has come up a lot before in FR > EN, it appears to be the specific term usually used for 'lock-out' --- not really anything to do with 'locking' = 'vérouillage'
