ID Devices: Specialised Solutions for Advanced Access Control
Nortech's ID devices encompass specialized readers and identification solutions designed for unique access control requirements. This range includes multi-technology readers supporting traditional cards alongside modern mobile credentials, card capture systems for turnstiles and speed gates, legacy technology support, and touchless exit controls. The NVITE multi-technology reader represents the future of access control, reading QR codes, proximity cards (125kHz), smartcards (13.56MHz), and mobile credentials via Bluetooth Low Energy and NFC. The MRC350 card capture reader integrates seamlessly into turnstiles, supporting both reusable credentials and single-use visitor passes with motorized card retention capabilities.
For legacy system support, the RP10-Indala provides continued functionality for established Indala installations. Complementing the range, the AMS-EBIR3-RG infrared exit button enables touchless egress, ideal for hygiene-sensitive environments.
All devices feature robust construction, flexible communication interfaces, and seamless integration with Nortech controllers and third-party systems, delivering specialized solutions for demanding access control applications.
Multi-technology readers like the NVITE support multiple credential types simultaneously—proximity cards, smart cards, mobile credentials (BLE/NFC), and QR codes—within a single unit. This eliminates the need for separate readers for different technologies, reducing installation costs and hardware complexity. Multi-technology readers future-proof your investment by enabling gradual migration from cards to mobile credentials without hardware replacement. They're ideal for organizations deploying mobile access apps while maintaining card support for visitors or users without smartphones. OSDP support ensures secure, encrypted communication with control panels.
The NVITE reader supports mobile credentials via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Near Field Communication (NFC) using the Nedap Mobile ID protocol. Users present smartphones running compatible third-party access control apps, with BLE enabling hands-free access up to 15 meters and NFC requiring presentation within 5cm. Mobile credentials offer enhanced security through encryption, dynamic codes, and remote revocation capabilities. They eliminate physical card costs, enable instant credential issuance, and provide detailed audit trails. Integration requires a compatible mobile app and supporting infrastructure from your access control software provider.
Card capture readers like the MRC350 are motorized units that can physically retain cards when instructed by the access control system. They're essential for turnstiles and speed gates managing temporary visitors or controlling access to high-security areas. The system can capture expired visitor passes, revoked credentials, or stolen cards, preventing reuse. The MRC350 supports both reusable permanent cards and disposable visitor passes on the same lane, automatically distinguishing between them. It accommodates third-party reader heads for compatibility with virtually any card technology, integrating seamlessly into leading turnstile systems.
Yes, the RP10-Indala reader provides continued support for existing Indala-based access control systems. Configured as a direct replacement for discontinued Indala ASR-603 and VPB-603 readers, it reads standard Indala credential formats with Clock & Data output for seamless integration. The ruggedized weatherproof design (IP65) suits indoor and outdoor applications, with reliable 4cm read range for cards and 2cm for fobs. Compatible Indala-format cards and fobs remain available from Nortech, enabling you to maintain your investment in Indala infrastructure without costly system replacement.
Touchless infrared exit buttons like the AMS-EBIR3-RG detect hand proximity (3-20cm adjustable) without physical contact, making them essential for infection control in healthcare, laboratories, food preparation areas, and clean rooms. They eliminate mechanical wear from traditional push buttons while improving accessibility for disabled or elderly users. The stainless steel construction withstands frequent sanitization, while adjustable latch time (0.8-30 seconds) accommodates various door hardware. Standard UK back box mounting enables easy replacement of existing exit buttons, and dual LED indication provides clear visual feedback even in bright conditions.
