Authentication system PITreader
With PITreader you can implement tasks relating to access permissions for plant and machinery. The options range from a simple enable and user authentication to a complex permission matrix and company-specific coding. PITreader is flexible as a standalone device or it can be used in conjunction with a Pilz controller. The transponder keys with RFID technology are available in freely writable versions and also with fixed, stored permissions.
Overview
Safety and security functions in one system
Pilz offers you safety and security functions in one system, with the operating mode selection and access permission system PITmode. The devices enable functionally safe operating mode selection and the control of access permissions on plant and machinery. Incorrect operation and tampering are thereby prevented and human and machine are protected. In order to find the perfect solution for individual requirements, the offer includes various hardware and software components for your one-stop safety and security solution.
Entry and access permission with PITreader
With PITreader you can implement tasks relating to access permissions for plant and machinery. The options range from a simple enable and user authentication to a complex permission matrix and company-specific coding. PITreader is flexible as a standalone device or it can be used in conjunction with a Pilz controller. The transponder keys with RFID technology are available in freely writable versions and also with fixed, stored permissions. Of course, suitable software tools are available for fast and simple programming of the PITreader keys and the PITreader settings.
PITreader S
PITreader S also offers integration of the OPC UA standard. On the one hand, this increases the security of communication between Server and Client. On the other hand, PITreader S expands the connection options to other manufacturers’ systems that also use OPC UA, thereby promising greater security and usability for access permission. For optimum safety gate guarding with authentication, PITreader S is also available in the pushbutton unit PITgatebox.
PITreader Keys – New colours for simpler handling
PITreader card unit – Greater flexibility thanks to new RFID transponders in card and sticker format
PITreader (S) card units offer the same wide application area you have come to expect from PITreader (S). However, the transponder type is new. The PITreader card and PITreader sticker use RFID transponders in card or sticker format. The company’s existing RFID-capable cards, plus the familiar PITreader keys, can also be used for authentication, offering you even greater flexibility when choosing the transponder.
One clever feature of the PITreader cards is the transparent window, which means the LED status indicator on the PITreader is visible at all times, even when a card is held to the machine.
