Biometric Switch

Utilizing fingerprint recognition technology, Schneider Electric’s Harmony biometric switch is a competitive alternative to other access control systems.

Utilizing fingerprint recognition technology, Harmony™ Biometric Switch by Schneider Electric is the only industrial switch of its kind to authorize users for operator or equipment usage. As a viable alternative to combat the weaknesses of the other access control systems, the switch provides simple, reliable and efficient operation to restrict access to sensitive zones and machine functions (starting, adjustment, maintenance, etc.) to only authorized personnel, which is essential in industrial environments.

Advanced access control using fingerprint recognition technology means increased security for your employees, machines and systems, plus lower operating and administrative costs.
