Product details

It operates in the 902 to 928 MHz FCC band using the EPCglobal Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-63 protocol, with a maximum transfer rate of 320 kbit/s, making it compatible with the SIMATIC RF600 reader family and any Gen 2 infrastructure. The NXP G2XM chip provides 240 bits of EPC memory (expandable from 96 bits) plus 64 bytes of user-rewritable memory, with lock, unlock, write-protection, and password features for securing the data on the tag.

The IP68/IPx9K rating means the tag survives both prolonged immersion and high-pressure hot-water washdown — suited for food-and-bev lines, chemical processing, or outdoor yards where steam-cleaning or flooding is routine. Read range is listed as up to 2 m, but the evidence notes it is reader-dependent and overrange is possible; the practical range on an RF600 reader over a metal surface is typically 1.5–2 m, so plan antenna placement accordingly. The tag withstands shock acceleration of 1000 m/s² and vibrational acceleration of 200 m/s² to DIN EN 60721-3-7 class 7M3, meaning it holds up on press rams, shaker tables, or vehicle-mounted equipment without bit errors or detachment. Operating temperature during read/write is -25 to +85 °C; outside the read area it tolerates -40 to +125 °C, so the tag can be mounted on a hot motor housing or near an oven and still function when interrogated.

It holds cULus approval, confirming acceptance for North American installations under UL and CSA standards. Minimum order quantity is 10 units per the description, so factor that into your procurement quantity.

Frequently asked questions

What is the MTBF of this tag?

The listed MTBF is 1712 a (years), which for a passive RFID tag reflects the expected service life under normal operating conditions rather than a failure rate in the electronic sense.

What compliance documentation is available?

The tag carries cULus approval for North America. It operates under FCC Part 15 in the 902-928 MHz band. RoHS and REACH compliance is standard for Siemens SIMATIC RFID products, though the specific declarations are not in this evidence set.

Can this tag be used on metal surfaces?

Yes, the 6GT2810-2EC10 is specifically an on-metal transponder — the PA6.6 GF / stainless steel housing and internal ferrite layer prevent detuning when mounted directly on metal, unlike standard UHF tags that lose range on conductive surfaces.

How does the 6GT2810-2EC10 differ from a standard plastic RFID tag?

The key difference is the on-metal design: the RF630T uses a ferrite-backed construction and stainless-steel housing to maintain read range on metal, whereas a standard plastic tag would detune and lose 50-80% of its range when mounted on a metal surface. The trade-off is a slightly larger form factor (21 mm diameter, 20 mm height) and screw-mounting requirement.
