Rod systems keep enclosures firmly shut
Emka rod systems are now configurable with even more handles for easy assembly and operation of specialist electrical/electronic cabinets.
Situations such as Internet hotels, production line automation systems, or remote utility supply/monitoring stations.
The transponder key system fits directly into a standard Emka swinghandle complete with all rod and tab possibilities - it is activated when the transponder key is brought within 5cm of the lock.
Proximity activation does away with potentially vulnerable key apertures and speeds up the unlocking/locking procedure.
The key, which uses a 433Hz passive electronic chip, is programmed to match that particular lock.
For emergency situations, in case of power loss, there is an emergency battery facility to ensure door release.
The lock programming feature of the system not only ensures that lost keys are not a problem - since the key can easily be barred - it also allows the use of a hierarchical master key architecture so that personnel requiring access to many cabinets need carry only one key.
