Safety access control
The subject of successful field trials with Nationwide Platforms, the Kosran Safety Access Control (SAC) system was specifically designed and developed to help prevent unauthorised use of access equipment on job sites.
It is also said to also deliver money-saving efficiencies for equipment rental companies including increased utilisation, accurate servicing intervals and improved rental income.
The technology can be easily retrofitted to most brands of aerial work platform. It requires the user to enter a unique, four digit PIN code before the machine will activate. If the operator does not have the right code, the access platform remains shut down.
This helps to increase site and worker safety and reduces accidents and machine damage. The rental company or machine owner can allocate up to 100 PINs to each machine and monitor in real time who is using each machine via their PIN – this also means multiple contractors working on the same site can share machines.
Kosran SAC is said to be the only technology on the market that provides remote control over both the aerial work platform and who can operate it. A particular feature is the telematic converter, linking the keypad PIN code-operated immobilisation system to any tracking device. This enables the machine owner to view and remotely add or delete authorised keypad PIN codes from a laptop, PC, or an App for smart phones and tablets.
