UHF RFID Tag for Concrete Integration - Top China Suppliers & Factory for Durable RFID Solutions
Product description:
Specialized Concrete Design
Perfect choice for cement and concrete product management. Embedded directly into concrete or cement, it withstands harsh construction environments to ensure accurate Lifecycle communication.
Wireless Communication
Built to communicate wirelessly, transmitting the RFID chip's unique ID number alongside digitalized outputs from strain gauge sensors embedded inside the concrete structure.
Experimental Read Ranges
Measured via handheld UHF RFID reader. Reads up to 50 cm from the mortar block surface when the tag is embedded 5 cm deep inside the structure.
Ultra-Compact Size
With dimensions of 46.5x31.5mm, its volume is comparable to the largest aggregates used in concrete, facilitating seamless integration without compromising structural integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
1. Can this RFID tag be embedded directly into concrete?
Yes. The tag is specifically designed with a rugged PPS casing to be embedded directly into concrete or cement structures, capable of withstanding the harsh environments of construction processes.
2. What is the typical read range of this concrete RFID tag?
When using a handheld UHF reader, the reading range is up to 2.2m (US frequency) or 2.1m (EU frequency) when embedded at a depth of 5cm. When embedded at a depth of 10cm, the reading range is up to 2.0m (US) or 1.9m (EU).
3. What is the environmental protection level (IP rating) of the tag?
The tag features an IP68 rating, which means it is completely dust-tight and highly protected against water ingress, making it suitable for long-term outdoor and wet concrete applications.
4. Can this RFID tag transmit sensor data?
Yes, it communicates wirelessly to transmit not only the RFID chip's unique identification number but also digitalized outputs from strain gauge sensors embedded in concrete structures.
5. Is the IC chip customizable for different projects?
Yes. While the standard option is the Alien Higgs-3 chip, alternative chips such as Monza M4QT, Monza R6, and UCODE 7XM+ can be customized based on your specific requirements.
6. What are the operating and storage temperature thresholds?
The tag is designed to function within an operating temperature range of -25°C to +100°C, and it can withstand extreme storage temperatures ranging from -40°C to +150°C.
