The EKS Light from EUCHNER is a transponder-based access control system consisting of two components: an Electronic-Key with RFID transponder and an Electronic-Key adapter with integral read unit.

The new FSA version of the EKS Light was specially developed to solve the widespread problem involving tampering of safety guards.
