3.1 Notes on mounting

 RFU630-13101 UL-certified: Install the device only inside of buildings. The device is not

suitable for outdoor use.

 The RFU630 should be attached as free from shock and vibration as possible.

 If the external antenna or the RFU630 with an internal antenna is mounted in front of

the front metal surfaces, observe an angle of approx. 10°.

 Use one of the optional SICK mounting sets 1 to 4, also in combination if required

depending on the application. For mounting samples, regarding the RFU630-131xx version serie, see the following pages.

The corresponding power loss values of the cables in the frequency band of 860 MHz to 960 MHz are also listed there.

Mounting

The housing of the RFA630-00x antenna has the same dimensions and mounting thread holes like the RFU630 write/read device. You can use the same optional mounting accessories (brackets, plates). To do so, see Chapter 3.2 Optional mounting accessories,

Page 10.

If several antennas are used in a reading station, e.g. two on each side of a conveyor system, make sure that the antennas are not directly facing each other, but are installed at staggered parallel positions.

The corresponding power loss values of the cables in the frequency band of 860 MHz to 960 MHz are also listed there.

Mounting

The housing of the RFA630-10x antenna has the same dimensions and mounting thread holes like the RFU630 write/read device. You can use the same optional mounting accessories (brackets, plates). To do so, see Chapter 3.2 Optional mounting accessories,

Mounting

Fixed wall-mounting (alignment not adjustable):

1. Mark and drill four fixing holes in the installation surface in accordance with the dimensional drawing.

2. When installing on a plate or frame, insert the supplied bolts from the rear through the installation surface and tighten the antenna.

Installation to a tube (alignment adjustable in two axis):

Use the mounting bracket no. 5321692.

1. Tight the bracket to the antenna (step 1).

2. Use a retainer and a bushing to install the bracket to the tube (step 2a). Due to the combination of the retainer on the tube and the curved arranged drill holes at the der leading edge of the bracket, the antenna can adjust in two axis to the objects. If mounting across to the axis of the tube is sufficient, both retainers can also be used for stable installation (step 2b).
