SICK RFH5 Series

■
In order to avoid absorption of HF waves and any associated physical phenomena,
make sure if possible that there are no metal surfaces on the side of the device in
the direction of the transponder as well as on the front of the device.
■
Ensure that no electrically conductive objects or liquids are positioned between
the device and the transponder during the read/write process, for example, metal
or water. These objects would also attenuate the generated HF field and thereby
reduce the scanning range of the device.
Mounting
■
RFH505, RFH510: mount the device in one suitable bracket using the nuts and
the enclosed spring washers.
■
RFH515: device in the clamping bracket using the two drill holes.
■
Mount the device in a shock and vibration insulated manner.
5.2.2 Instructions for mounting the device when the ambient temperature can fall below 0°C
The device can also be operated at low ambient temperatures. For details, see "Techni‐
cal data", page 59.
NOTICE
Operating the device at the lower limit of the permissible ambient temperature range
The ensure that the device can produce the required heating power, do not expose it to
strong air flows (e.g. from a ventilation system).
►
If necessary, take appropriate measures to shield the device from air flows.
NOTICE
If the ambient temperature is below 0°C, please note:
•
Do not move the connecting cable to the device
5.2.3 Auxiliary equipment required
■
RFH505 (M18) and RFH510 (M30): mounting device (bracket) with correct dimen‐
sions, see "Device view", page 14 and sufficient load-bearing capacity, see "Tech‐
nical data", page 59.
■
RFH515 (C44): 2 M5 screws for mounting the device to the base using the
delivered bracket. The required screw length depends on the mounting base (wall
thickness).
■
Tool and tape measure
5.2.4 Mounting device
The device can be mounted as follows.
•
RFH505 or RFH510: mount the device into an appropriate bracket using the 2
M18 or M30 fixing nuts.
•
RFH515: mount the device using the supplied clamping bracket.
Optional SICK brackets
RFH505 or RFH510: the device can be installed using an optional SICK bracket or a
customer-specific bracket.
SICK offers prefabricated brackets which are optimally suited for mounting the device
in a wide range of applications.
