Pepperl+Fuchs: Enhanced Flexibility and Efficiency with HF-RFID Readers

0

Pepperl+Fuchs introduces a new range of RFID read/write devices that combine an unmatched reading range with a wide range of helpful additional features in a space-saving flat-pack design. These devices are based on the proven high-frequency RFID technology (13.56 MHz) and are particularly suitable for industrial applications where objects or RFID transponders need to be identified automatically.

Enhanced Flexibility and Range with HF-RFID Readers

The HF-RFID read/write devices from Pepperl+Fuchs prioritize flexibility. With their redesigned flat-pack design, these devices can be easily integrated into any application environment. Additionally, they offer a unique adjustable reading range of up to 30 cm, providing users with maximum flexibility and freedom to adapt to specific applications. Another advantage is their multi-tag capability, allowing up to 20 RFID transponders to be simultaneously captured in a single read operation, enabling faster throughput and optimized processes.

The new HF-RFID read/write devices from Pepperl+Fuchs are known for their reliability and process security. Designed to meet IP67 protection class, these devices can operate in temperatures ranging from -25…+70 oC. Additionally, they have the ability to detect interfering metallic objects in their environment by checking their own resonance frequency and automatically adapting to such disturbances. Any disruptions or errors are indicated by a red status LED on the device and can be analyzed in more detail through visible software parameters. The devices also provide RSSI values (Received Signal Strength Indicator) which can be used to detect faulty transponders early and remove them from the process. This condition monitoring helps avoid costly deviations and downtime. The RSSI values can also be used for position determination.

The HF-RFID read/write devices from Pepperl+Fuchs offer seamless integration into the system environment via IO-Link or IDENTControl. The IQT3* devices are ideal for implementing Industry 4.0 applications and can be integrated into various architectures using the built-in IO-Link interface. Depending on the complexity of the application, users can choose between an “Easy Mode” without any programming effort or an “Expert Mode” for challenging applications. On the other hand, the IQH3* devices are suitable for more complex applications and have an interface for connecting to Pepperl+Fuchs’ IDENTControl evaluation units.

Enhanced reading range of up to 30 cm enables maximum application flexibility

The HF-RFID read/write devices from Pepperl+Fuchs offer maximum flexibility in applications due to their extended reading range of up to 30 cm. This allows for easy integration into various application environments and provides users with the freedom to adapt to specific requirements.

The HF-RFID read/write devices from Pepperl+Fuchs offer a particularly wide detection range and the ability to read multiple tags simultaneously, allowing for optimal adaptation to various applications. This enables users to efficiently identify and track multiple items within a wide range, enhancing productivity and streamlining processes.

The reliable processes of the HF-RFID read/write devices from Pepperl+Fuchs are ensured through their automatic adaptation to environmental interferences and the output of RSSI values. These devices have the ability to detect interfering metallic objects in their surroundings and adjust accordingly. Any disturbances or errors are visualized through a red status LED and can be further analyzed through visible software parameters. The RSSI values can be used for early detection of faulty transponders and for positioning purposes, aiding in the avoidance of costly deviations and downtime.

The HF-RFID read/write devices from Pepperl+Fuchs offer seamless integration into Industry 4.0 applications through their compatibility with IO-Link or IDENTControl. This allows for easy incorporation into existing systems, enabling efficient identification tasks in industrial environments.

The HF-RFID read/write devices from Pepperl+Fuchs offer a comprehensive solution for efficient identification tasks in industrial applications.
