7.14.1 Characteristics
The heat-resistant SIMATIC RF680T transponder is a passive, maintenance-free data
carrier. It operates based on UHF Class 1 Gen 2 technology and is used to save the
"Electronic Product Code" (EPC) of 96 bits/240 bits. The transponder also has a 512-bit user
memory.
These transponders are ideally suited to high-temperature applications (e.g. painting) as well
as applications in production logistics. Depending on the temperatures at which it is used,
the lifetime of the transponder is limited.
The RF680T is rugged and suitable for industrial applications with IP68/IPX9K degree of
protection. It is highly resistant to oil, grease and cleaning agents.
The SIMATIC RF680T is mounted directly onto metal carriers to ensure optimum functioning.
Area of application Applications with high temperatures (up to +220
°C). Suitable for use in hazardous areas.
Typical areas of application:
• Paint shops and their preparatory treatments,
incl. drying ovens
• Electrophoretic deposition area
• Primer coat incl. drying oven
• Top coat area incl. drying oven
• Washing areas at temperatures > 85 °C
Frequency range
• ETSI: 865 to 868 MHz
• FCC: 902 to 928 MHz
According to ISO 18000-63
Polarization Linear
Memory
• EPC: 96 ... 240 bits
• User memory: 64 bytes
