Unisto Electronic Seals has redesigned its Crypta Data electronic seal to provide the ability to customise features to suit a user’s requirements, the firm reports.
The unit automatically generates a four digit random number every time that it is sealed, which remains unchanged until it is opened. The number can be checked, and thereby the security of the load verified, at any time by pressing the display button that illuminates the display, which can be easily read in any lighting conditions. Using the plastics expertise of its parent company Unisto Switzerland, Unisto Electronic Seals, formerly Encrypta, has developed a new, glass filled nylon body to replace the original die cast aluminium. The suitability of this material has been proven in the field, the makers claim, having used it on the company’s Crypta C2K product. Further innovative design features mean that the new Crypta Data II will be superior to the original in both strength and durability, particularly regarding resisting salt attack.
What they say
“As we further develop our RFID and RF communications capabilities, using a plastic body was essential to both improve product performance and reduce end user costs,” said Mark Hayward, Sales and Marketing Director of Unisto Electronic Seals. The new sleek ‘manta ray’ shape has been designed to be both aesthetically pleasing for the 21 century trucks and be functional in this harsh environment. Crypta Data II provides state of the art, highly reliable sealing and, because it is re-usable, it pays for itself in a short period of time compared with mechanical metal or plastic seals.”
