CKS2 – One key, many functions

Automation

In modern plants, safety is an essential requirement. This includes the ability to lock and start machines safely, restrict access to certain areas and select the operating mode. Treotham Automation supplies the Euchner CKS2 key system to perform the sometimes complex tasks of this kind. It is a solution with a simple connection to the overall control system of machines and plants. The proven transponder technology and the use of one or more keys with a high coding level ensure maximum safety. The CKS2 is a compact system with integrated evaluation electronics for installation in machines and plants. It is also available as a submodule for the MGB2 Modular door locking system. This allows users to access comprehensive diagnostics data and communication functions either in connection with an IO-Link Gateway from Euchner or via the fieldbus directly from the MBM bus module.
