RFU62x UHF RFID read/write device

UHF for small read ranges

The RFU62x is a UHF RFID read/write device suitable for read ranges of up to 2 m. The transponder communication is compliant with standard ISO/IEC18000-6C (EPC Class 1 Gen 2).

The device can be configured to operate from the SOPAS user interface or by sending ASCII commands directly. Its well-defined, restricted read/write range is particularly well-suited for automated identification over small object distances, e.g., in conveyor technology.

Product traceability and anti-counterfeiting solutions require reliable automatic identification products. SICK offers the three most common industrial identification technologies: laser-based scanners for 1D codes, image-based 1D and 2D code readers, and RFID readers. Integrated interfaces enable the readers to communicate inside industrial networks and innovative functionality makes commissioning and operation easy.

Radio-based RFID technologies in the HF (high frequency) and UHF (ultra high frequency) ranges supplement SICK’s industrial automation portfolio. In applications where process-relevant data is modified remotely, RFID makes it possible to store data on writable and rewritable media. In contrast to optical solutions, RFID provides reliable identification of all objects – despite dirt and everyday wear.
