Safety information
RFI341 Radio Frequency Interrogator
2.1.4 Intended Use
The RFI341 is designed to detect and decode 13.56 MHz, ISO 15693 compliant RFID transponder signals. It is used together with antennas installed in a reading station and reads from and writes to RFID transponders on objects positioned, e.g., on a conveyor belt. The RFI341 enables the bi-directional communication with a host for, e.g., further processing. Any warranty claims against SICK AG will be rendered invalid if the device is used for any other purpose or if changes are made to the device including changes made during the installation and electrical connection procedures.

Safety information
RFI341 Radio Frequency Interrogator
2.2 General Safety Instructions and Protective Measures
Read carefully the general safety instructions and observe them at all times. This also applies to the warnings provided for the activities described in each chapter of this document.
Risk of injury by electrical current!
The power supply is connected to the main voltages 24V DC. When working with electrical equipment, always follow the relevant
safety instructions.
2.3 Quick Stop and Restart
Switching off the power supply of the RFI341 can result in loss of the following:
The specific application parameter set, if it was set only temporarily
The last reading in the result buffer
2.4 Environmental Conditions
The RFI341 is designed to cause minimum impact to the environment.
2.4.1 Power Requirements
The RFI341 has a maximum power consumption of 50W
2.4.2 Disposal after Final Placing out of Operation
.
Always dispose of unusable or irreparable devices in a manner that is not harmful to the environment and in accordance with the applicable national waste disposal regulations. The RFI341 can be separated into recyclable secondary raw materials and special category waste (electronic scrap). At present, SICK does not accept the return of unusable or irreparable devices.
