Entry-level configurator for your RFID system
Without in-depth knowledge of RFID technologies, you can put together your individual solution with Balluff's entry-level configurator. By answering various questions about the application's detection range, the desired frequency, the communication interface and other properties, you are provided with a portfolio tailored to your needs for selection. This makes it easy for you to create an RFID system that is a perfect fit for your requirements. Simply follow the questions listed in the configurator.
The mounting situation and the metal surfaces in the immediate vicinity play a role in data carrier mounting. To achieve the desired read/write distance, the data carrier must be mounted in a metallic environment at a certain distance from steel (B) and within a defined free zone (A).
The free zone designates the lateral distance at which a data carrier is mounted in a metallic environment in order to achieve a defined read/write distance.
In addition to the free zone, the distance between the data carrier and the steel surface must be taken into account for optimum function.
This refers to the distance between the read/write device and the RFID data carrier.
