Pilz PITreader electronic access permission system

Click2Contact

Pilz has introduced an RFID-based electronic access permission system known as PITreader. Users can implement tasks relating to access permissions for plant and machinery whether simple or complex, from a simple enable and authentication of specific machine subfunctions to a complex hierarchical permission matrix.

The transponder keys are also available in a freely writeable version and with fixed, stored permissions. For manipulation protection, the RFID keys can be coded using PITreaders with company-specific programming. PITreader is flexible and can be used as a standalone device or in conjunction with a Pilz controller.

PITreader is a compact device for controlling all access permission tasks, is suitable for use in a rugged industrial environment and is easy to retrofit. It has a standard installation diameter of 22.5 mm and a low modular depth of 45 mm.

Both Ethernet and serial communication are available, with a standard 24 V output if the transponder key is valid. All functions can be programmed via integrated web server, and front protection meets IP65/IP67.
