6GT2800-5BB00

The Siemens 6GT2800-5BB00 is a high-performance RFID transponder belonging to the SIMATIC RF300 series, designed for industrial applications where reliable identification and tracking are paramount. This robust transponder, also known as the RF340T, is engineered to withstand harsh environments, boasting an IP67/IPx9K protection class that ensures it remains impervious to dust and water ingress, even under high-pressure washdown conditions.

With a compact form factor measuring 48 mm x 25 mm x 15 mm and a lightweight design at just 25 grams, the 6GT2800-5BB00 can be easily integrated into a variety of setups without adding bulk. It is constructed from durable PA12 material and comes in an anthracite colour, blending seamlessly into industrial settings.

The transponder operates at a frequency of 13.56 MHz and is capable of a maximum read range of 105 mm, which is reader-dependent. It supports a RF300-specific protocol and can transfer data at a maximum rate of 106 kbit/s. The device is multitag-capable, allowing for the simultaneous identification of multiple tags within the read range.

Memory-wise, the 6GT2800-5BB00 is equipped with FRAM/EEPROM storage, providing a user memory capacity of 32765 bytes. It features a unique UID (fixed code) of 4 bytes, user memory of 32765 bytes, and an OTP memory of 20 bytes. The memory is designed with block-by-block write protection, ensuring data integrity and security.

The transponder is also designed for longevity, with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1200 years, and it can handle an impressive number of read and write cycles, up to 10 billion at ambient temperatures below 40°C. Data retention time is not less than 10 years, ensuring that your data remains secure over extended periods.

Mounting the 6GT2800-5BB00 is straightforward, requiring just two M3 screws, and it does not necessitate any specific mounting distance from metal surfaces, providing flexibility in installation. Its mechanical resilience is further highlighted by its shock resistance according to DIN EN 60721-3-7 Class 7 M3, with a shock acceleration tolerance of 500 m/s² and vibrational acceleration tolerance of 200 m/s².

The Siemens 6GT2800-5BB00 is a reliable choice for a wide range of industrial applications, including automation, assembly lines, and logistics, where accurate and efficient tracking of goods and components is essential. Its robust design, coupled with its advanced memory and identification capabilities, make it a smart investment for businesses looking to optimise their operations.
