The Pilz operating mode selection and access permission system, PITmode, protects plants and machinery from unauthorized access and prevents damage from improper use. The new Pilz modular safety relay, myPNOZ, is flexible, powerful, and ensures reliable monitoring of safety functions. As well as other products specifically related to the packaging automation industry where there are very high requirements for the robustness of the products used and protection against manipulation.
With the operating mode selection and access permission system PITmode, a user can protect both personnel and machines from unauthorized access. In combination with the smaller controllers PNOZmulti 2 or PSS 4000, the reader unit PITreader prevents unwanted access or unauthorized operations.
Even access to safety gates can be controlled using individual permissions for each transponder key. With the Pilz “Key-in-pocket” solution, users’ security IDs are stored safely and securely and implemented using either a PNOZmulti 2 or PSS 4000. The system cannot be restarted until all users have signed out.
The product range also includes corresponding software tools, diagnostic and visualization systems as well as services. Pilz also provides a comprehensive range of services worldwide, including safety advice, engineering, product training, and seminars on the subject of machinery safety.
