Read/write head for hazardous areas IUH-F190-FR2-02-20M-C1D1

The compact IUH-F190-FR2-02-20M-C1D1 read/write head operates in the UHF frequency range and is optimized for use in industrial applications involving ranges up to 1m. The device reads and writes passive tags according to EPC Generation 2 (ISO/IEC 18000-63). The read/write head can be operated in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. The read/write head complies with the respective radio regulations.

A wide range of options is supported for filtering data. The read/write head is connected to the IDENTControl interface using an M12 connector. The user can monitor the status of the read/write head using the integrated LEDs. The read/write head has a typical detection range of approx. 1 meter; this range is determined by the tag used and can be changed by adjusting the transmission power. Other influencing factors are the application-specific setup and surrounding materials, particularly metal. The read and write distances measured under ideal conditions can be found in a separate document. For the actual read and write distances under real conditions, the combination of read/write head and tag must be tested in the intended application.

This explosion-proof unit comes with a 20 m M12 straight pigtail pre-attached to the unit. The cable can be fed directly through a straight piece of conduit, or the M12 connector can be cut off and reconnected at the final destination after the cable has been fed through the conduit.

The conduit seal comes already poured so that no hazardous gasses can enter the enclosure by way of the conduit fitting. Removing the cover is not necessary but can be done if the read head IUH-F190-V1-FR2-02 needs to be replaced in the future.
