1 Introduction
The reader is designed to read trovantm transponders. It is a robust device for industrial applications. It is especially suited for large reading ranges. The adaption to the individual needs can be performed by selection of
the most optimal antenna.
The wide range of applications for this device includes for example:
Production control in car assembly and paint shop, barrel logistics, bin identification, skilift management, etc.
Typical reading range is between 20 cm to 70 cm depending on the type of antenna and transponder.
2 Technical data
2.1 Mechanical characteristics
The scanner is integrated into a alloy housing with PG threads for the cable connection. When assembled correctly the housing is good for wet environment according to IP 65. The cable connection is done at the inside
of the housing with help of the terminal blocks.
The dimensions of the housing are 220 x 122 x 80 mm
The weight is approximately 1,8 kg
Storage and operation temperature: -20° till +70°C
Humidity; 95% at +50°C (not condensing)
70% at +70°C (not condensing)
