How it works

UHF offers customers operating in harsh and hazardous environments the option to read multiple assets over larger read ranges compared to LF (Low Frequency) or HF (High Frequency) options. The use case and site will vary the overall configuration of your system, but in general a UHF passive RFID asset management system works by combining three key components

Static or mobile assets are tagged with iTAG500 intrinsically safe UHF RFID tags. With multiple mounting options and a wide range of form factors available, including rivet, cable tie and adhesive options, it is easy to find the perfect tag for each of your assets.

The iRFID107 provides customers with a Zone 1/ Division 1 RFID reader enclosure designed for any UHF reader. The readers can be placed at choke points, entrance & exits, production lines, platforms, or anywhere you need to know if an asset has passed through and in which direction it was travelling.

Where a more hands on approach is needed, the inclusion of the iRFID500 means you can read tags directly at source to ensure proper management of key assets throughout your operation. The iRFID500 also includes Bluetooth connectivity meaning it can be wirelessly linked to mobile devices such as tablets or laptops to integrate your data directly into your chosen software platform.

Proven Technology

The iTAG500 range of intrinsically safe, passive UHF RFID tags represents a breakthrough in asset tracking for hazardous areas. Developed in partnership with HID Global, the range utilises the unique patented plasmonic structure which produces market leading performance in areas where there is a high concentration of metallic surfaces.
