Robust, compact and installable virtually anywhere
The read/write head stands out from flameproof identification solutions for Zone 1/21 on account of its extremely compact dimensions and can therefore also be installed in applications where space is restricted. The slim-line TN-R42/TC-Ex is therefore ideal for the contactless identification of correct hose and flange connections, which ensure investment and product quality in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry.
End-to-end HF RFID system in the Ex area
The interface connection of the TN-R42/TC-Ex operates like a standard read/write head for the safe area. It is simply connected to Turck's BL20 or TBEN RFID interface series and can also be installed in protective housings in Zone 2/22 if required. It can also process other information in addition to hose identification, such as socket, data, time or the degree of hose contamination. Turck's multiprotocol technology enables data transfer to the control system via three Ethernet protocols – Profinet, EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP.
Application specific RFID tags
Different HF RFID tag types adapted to specific application requirements are available. For example, HF RFID tags with a password function are available for applications with demanding requirements with regard to data security and access protection.
Complete traceability thanks to a comprehensive RFID system
Turck's comprehensive HF RFID system provides an optimum solution for different identification tasks in the pharmaceutical industry. It guarantees improved plant safety and the complete traceability of products thanks to the end-to-end use of RFID.
