Stay smart, safe, and connected with the new iRFID500, a powerful handheld passive RFID reader that can connect to your smart devices via Bluetooth or work as a standalone device for operational flexibility.<\/p>\n<p>The iRFID500 is designed to streamline business processes like tracking assets such as drill pipes or tools, monitoring maintenance tasks and planning, and demonstrating regulatory compliance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Safe and suitable for use worldwide<\/strong><br \/>\nChoose the variant that best suits your application, no matter when in the world it\u2019s located. Fully certified as safe to use in ATEX, IECEx, and North American hazardous areas, the iRFID500 also holds radio approvals for ETSI and FCC frequencies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use with a range of smart devices<\/strong><br \/>\nThe iRFID500 comes with Bluetooth capability, able to connect with smart devices like tablets as part of your Industrial Internet of Things. You can view tag reads in real time, and add more information such as what maintenance tasks were carried out, or which operator was working on which piece of equipment. What\u2019s more, you can use the tablet operating system of your choosing; the iRFID500 works with Windows, Android, and Apple devices.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operate as a standalone<\/strong><br \/>\nWith a large internal memory, the iRFID500 doesn\u2019t need to connect to a smart device to be used. If you don\u2019t need to add extra details or don\u2019t have access to a tablet, simply use the iRFID500 as a standalone. Its internal clock function stamps each tag read with a date and time, providing a clear audit trail for compliance. You can access the tag read data quickly by connecting the iRFID500 to a computer via the USB connection cable, making you more efficient and fitting in with your work processes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Integrate with your existing systems<\/strong><br \/>\nSoftware development kits for both Windows and Android are available, enabling you to build closer integrations between the iRFID500 and your systems for a personalised solution that directly suits your application.<\/p>\n<p>iRFID500 Software Development Kit (SDK):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Compatible with all iRFID500 readers<\/li>\n<li>Supports Java, .NET, Android and C programming languages<\/li>\n<li>.NET compact framework available<\/li>\n<li>Intuitive API for fast development of RFID applications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The development kit (SDK) includes software libraries that make it easier to integrate the iRFID500 reader technology. These libraries define a high level object-oriented interface that permits communication with all readers in easy2read mode, allowing developers to focus their resources on the application development instead of wasting time with the communication protocol details.<\/p>\n<p>The libraries are available for Visual C++, JAVA, Android and Microsoft .Net and are bundled with the IRFID500 development kits as a royalty-free license.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Long battery life designed for shift work<\/strong><br \/>\nWith a long battery life lasting for over 12 hours, the iRFID500 is fit for purpose \u2013 minimising downtime and maximising efficiency. The power LED changes colour from green, to yellow, to red indicating how much battery life is remaining, so you can charge the device when needed and be confident that it won\u2019t die in the middle of a task.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Practical size and shape<\/strong><br \/>\nAround the size of a smartphone and with an attachment point for a wrist strap, lanyard, or belt clip, the iRFID500 is easy to carry without a risk of damaging the unit or restricting your movement. The lightweight and ergonomic design means you won\u2019t get fatigued as the shift wears on, allowing you to work more effectively.<\/p>\n<p><strong>No need to remove gloves<\/strong><br \/>\nThe large buttons are designed to be glove-friendly, so you don\u2019t need to take off your protective gloves to use the iRFID500 \u2013 no time wasted removing gloves or putting them back on. The stylus nib means you can even operate a connected tablet whilst wearing gloves, avoiding unnecessary time wasting and helping you work more productively.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Straightforward to operate<\/strong><br \/>\nThe iRFID500 is designed to be operated single handed, leaving the other hand free to hold railings or carry additional equipment, like a tablet. There\u2019s visual, auditory, and vibration feedback to make it simple to use successfully, with minimal training.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adjustable to suit operator needs in the field<\/strong><br \/>\nThe iRFID500\u2019s read range can be adjusted by the operator to easily distinguish between different tags, and read tags from up to 1m away. No need to get a ladder or carry out a risk assessment to inventory assets kept on a high shelf, for instance \u2013 making the process safer and more efficient.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fit for all weather operation<br \/>\n<\/strong>The iRFID500 is IP65 rated, able to continue working even whilst being splashed with water, so there\u2019s no need to repair or replace units after using them in the rain. The iRFID500 can also be used in a wide range of temperatures from -20\u00b0C to +55\u00b0C, so it can go wherever you do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Works with UHF passive RFID tags<\/strong><br \/>\nThe iRFID500 reads UHF passive RFID tags such as Extronics\u2019 intrinsically safe iTAG500 range. This iTAG500 series is highly durable and suitable for use in hazardous areas. Designed with Omni-ID, the iTAG500 series uses their unique plasmonic structure for superior performance in metallic environments, such as those found in the process industries. The tags will also still work when covered in oil or water, so there\u2019s no need to clean them before reading \u2013 saving you time and effort.<\/p>\n<p><strong>See the benefits for yourself<\/strong><br \/>\nTest out the iRFID500 in your own environment and see how it could help you with your application with a demo kit. Each demo kit includes an iRFID500 variant of your choice, a USB cable to both charge the iRFID500 and download tag reads, a wrist strap, and a selection of passive RFID tags.\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[fusion_youtube id=\"2YgM_rOmEuk\" alignment=\"right\" width=\"\" height=\"\" autoplay=\"false\" api_params=\"\" hide_on_mobile=\"small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility\" class=\"\" css_id=\"\"][\/fusion_youtube]\n<p>Practical and simple RFID reader, suitable for use in all weather conditions and environments.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"fusion-button\" href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/athex_extronics_irfid-500.pdf\">DATASHEET | IRFID500 [EN]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4936,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[144],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-2946","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-uncategorized-en","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 -
