The Siemens 6GT2398-1CF00 is a SIMATIC RF200/RF300 antenna built for RFID applications at 13.56 MHz. It's a compact, 8 mm diameter, 38 mm deep cylinder in stainless steel V2A, with an IP67-rated front face that handles washdown environments without a second thought. Out here in the grease, that's the difference between an antenna that lasts a shift and one that lasts years.
IP67 on the front means the antenna body and the face seal survive direct hose spray and temporary immersion — food, beverage, or chemical washdown lines are its natural habitat. The M8 4-pin female connector mates with the matching antenna cable (sold separately), and the included stainless steel M8 nuts secure it through a panel or bracket. Shock resistance to 500 m/s² per EN 60721-3-7 class 7M2 and vibration to 200 m/s² mean this antenna stays put on a conveyor frame or near a press — no loose connections from the route's daily hammering.
