The Siemens 6GT2898-0AA10 is a SIMATIC RF600 wide-range voltage supply built to power RFID readers directly — specifically two readers in a UK installation, with a UK plug and 2 m connecting cable at the input and two M12 4-pin A-coded female connectors at the output. Rated for 24 V DC output at 3 A (range 0–4 A), it accepts a wide input of 94–264 V AC (1-phase, 50/60 Hz) or 120–353 V DC, making it usable across most standard mains supplies worldwide. The enclosure is IP65-rated, so it can be mounted directly in washdown or dusty environments without an additional cabinet — common on conveyor lines or in warehouse logistics where RFID portals sit near the product flow.
The 3 A continuous output (with a 0–4 A rated range) is sized for powering up to two SIMATIC RF600 readers simultaneously — check the reader model's peak draw; the supply holds 24 V DC within 2 % tolerance, so voltage drop under load is tight enough for reliable reader communication. Galvanic isolation to SELV/PELV per EN 60950 means the output is safety extra-low voltage, which simplifies panel layout (no additional isolation barrier needed between the supply and the reader's digital interface). Efficiency at 90 % keeps heat dissipation low for the 3 A output, manageable in a sealed IP65 enclosure without derating.
Safety approvals cover EN 60950, UL 60950, and CAN/CSA 22.2 No. 950 (3rd Edition), so it is accepted in North American and European panels that require these standards. EMC compliance to EN 61000-6-3 and EN 55011 Class B means it is suitable for residential, commercial, and light-industrial environments without additional filtering. Class II (protective insulation) means no earth connection is required — the UK plug's ground pin is unused, simplifying wiring.
