Transponders

Requesting and collecting your transponder

The transponder is requested through the newcomer paperwork. Mélanie Le Guen will invite you to collect it in E127d once you have sent back the welcome booklet and safety sheet. The transponder will not be issued until these two documents have been submitted.

Returning transponders (end of contract/internship/stay)

Transponders must be returned at the end of the contract/internship/stay:

    • to Mélanie Le Guen in E127d;
    • to a member of the administration staff (Cécile Durand in E127c, Pauline Barjolin in E133);
    • or to your supervisor (who must return it to Mélanie afterwards).

If the transponder is not returned, €150 will be charged to the team to which the owner of the transponder belongs.

Reprogramming transponders (contract/course/stay renewal)

Your transponder will stop working on the last day of your contract/internship/stay. In the event of renewal/amendment/extension, it must be brought back to Mélanie Le Guen, who will set up its new expiration date.

Adding rooms to a transponder

Transponders provide access to “common” rooms (classrooms and such: E012, E022, E045, E122, and E126), as well as to the offices and labs of the relevant team, according to the specific settings for each:

UMR 8228 CPCV : AIV | CBEA | Chimie théorique | ElectroNanoBio | MESOBioLab | METHROX | RMN | SOFT | SPIN
UMR 8004 IMAP

Any request to add an additional room must be made:

    • either in the welcome booklet, before the transponder is issued;
    • or after the transponder has been issued, by sending an email to logistique.chimie@ens.psl.eu, either by the person concerned (cc: supervisor) or by the supervisor.

Special case of LBT (ES142)

Access to LBT is restricted. All access requests must be sent to Marie-Aude Plamont, who will launch the specific LBT procedure for newcomers and request the addition of the room to your transponder.

“My transponder stopped working!”

Any transponder malfunction must be reported to logistique.chimie@ens.psl.eu. You may be asked to return your transponder to E127d if the problem cannot be resolved remotely (e.g. battery replacement).
