ACT 433 long range receiver & transmitters integrate gate entry/barrier control into existing access control systems

The ACT 433 from Access Control Technology (ACT) Ltd., delivers gate entry or barrier control within a new or existing access control solution. It can be integrated into the ACTpro access control solution or any 37 bit Wiegand or clock and data system. 

The ACT 433 range of products includes a receiver and two long range transmitters, one of which has a built in proximity. Receivers from 3rd party manufacturers, such as Prastel receivers supplied by ACT, can also be read by the ACT 433 receiver making it feasible to upgrade existing systems to the ACT 433 solution by simply changing the receiver.   

As the ACT 433 can be easily integrated into an existing access control system, such as ACTpro or ACTsmart2, the administration of tags, for gate entry or barrier control, becomes a much simpler, manageable and secure process than is the norm. Lost, stolen or obsolete tags can be removed from the system immediately, through the use of the ACT developed ACTWin pro or ACTSmart software. Entry will be denied to anyone trying to gain access using such a tag.      

Allocation of car park spaces in a shared car park can also be managed by the ACT 433 working in conjunction with the ACTWin software. User groups can be set up and a maximum number of spaces can be allocated to each group. When the spaces allocated to a group have been filled access will not be granted until a group member leaves. 

The ACT 433 products are not limited in terms of their functionality. As well as the popular integration of gate entry or barrier control into an existing access control system they can also be used for the activation of external lighting and the operation of motorised roller shutters, blinds or awnings. 

Unlike many similar products on the market the ACT 433 Receiver has an IP67 rating making it suitable for outdoor as well as indoor installation. With an attractive, polycarbonate housing it can be surface or flush mounted. 

The long range transmitters (ACT 433TX and ACT 433TXprox) have a read range of up to 50 metres, site dependent. With built in proximity the ACT 433TXprox can be used to gain entry at a door secured by an access control reader.
