What this tag is and where it goes
The Siemens 6GT2810-2AE83-1AX0 is a SIMATIC RF630L SmartLabel — a UHF RFID tag built for the RF600 system. It's a white PET label, 45 mm wide by 20 mm deep, just 0.3 mm thick, designed for thermal transfer printing. The tag uses an NXP Ucode 8 transponder chip with 128-bit (16-byte) EPC memory and no user memory, communicating via EPCglobal Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-63 protocol at 860 to 930 MHz. In bonded state it achieves IP67 protection, making it suitable for washdown environments on production lines or in logistics.
Read range and deployment context
Maximum read range is 5 m, but the system manual for RF600 notes overrange is possible and range is reader-dependent. Operating temperature during read/write is -25 to +85 °C; outside the read/write area the tag tolerates -25 to +130 °C, which covers most industrial curing, painting, or wash cycles. Storage temperature is 5 to 25 °C with a maximum storage life of 2 years. The tag is one-side adhesive on PET material, with torsion and bending stress only conditionally permissible — mount it on a flat surface for reliable adhesion and consistent read performance.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
This part carries an active lifecycle status from Siemens. It ships in rolls of 2,500 labels on a 3-inch core, with a minimum order quantity of 5,000 units (two rolls per carton). The tags are printable via thermal transfer process. For BOM-line sourcing, confirm fit against the RF600 system requirements and reader compatibility — the tag is specifically designed for that platform.
