Safe start-up, safe plant locking (LockOut) and safe operating modes (MSO) play an important role on modern machines and plants. These tasks are complex, but with Euchner's CKS2 systems, the solution is simple.
CKS2 is available as a flush-mounted version (photo right) and as an integrable submodule for the MGB2 door locks (photo left). In both versions, the electronics are integrated. The RFID keys are highly encrypted and copy-protected.
Independent of existing protections, one or more CKS2s can be added within the same environment. A key can also be assigned to multiple key adapters from different installations, allowing you to achieve key-transfer.
Thanks to FlexFunction, CKS2 is very versatile. After unpacking and connecting, CKS2 does not work at first. The behavior of each CKS2 unit is determined when a key is taught in for the first time. After that, the CKS2 "knows" which way to operate and whether there is one unique key or a set of keys.
Once a key is recognized as valid, the OSSD security outputs are enabled. If several CKS2s are used side by side, a serial chain can be obtained by connecting outputs to inputs.
Connecting to IO-Link is possible using a gateway. Then there are extensive diagnostic and communication functions. You can then identify keys and know which key was used to operate the system.
The CKS2 submodule for MGB2 door locks (pictured left) fits MGB2-Modular for ProfiNET/ProfiSAFE or EtherCAT/FSoE as well as MGB2-Classic. No more complicated configuration or complicated key management, and key distribution stations are not needed.
