What this cover panel does for your reader
The 6GT2890-0CD00 is a transparent cover panel for the SIMATIC RF1000 family of access control readers. It mounts to the reader and provides a physical barrier while keeping the read window clear for RFID communication. The panel is rated for clean room use, UV-resistant, and food-safe after a silicone joint is applied.
Dimensions and fit
At 66 mm deep, 95.9 mm wide, and only 8 mm tall, this cover adds minimal bulk to the reader assembly. The shallow profile means it won't interfere with nearby equipment or door swings in tight panel layouts.
Environmental tolerance
The cover panel survives storage and transport from -40 to +85 °C, and stays operational from -25 to +55 °C.
This part carries an active lifecycle status from Siemens. It's specified into the BOM for RF1000 access control installations.
