UHF | RAIN - RFID Antenna Times-7 - A6034S

The Times-7 A6034S is a high-gain, circularly polarised far-field RAIN RFID antenna with an ultra-low profile. A right-hand circularly polarised element delivers 9 dBiC typical gain with a narrow, even 50° 3 dB beamwidth in both planes, giving an accurate read zone and a read range of up to 9 m. The square housing measures 393 x 393 mm, is only 12.2 mm deep and weighs 1.452 kg net.

‍

Typical VSWR is 1.4, the axial ratio stays below 2 dB at boresight and the front-to-back ratio is 13 dB. Versions cover 865–868 MHz (ETSI) or 902–928 MHz (FCC) and work with any UHF RFID reader with a 50 Ω antenna port at up to 3 W input power. The element is DC grounded for ESD protection, and a 10 kΩ detection resistance lets readers identify a connected antenna.

‍

The fire-retardant ABS radome is rated IP65, suitable for indoor and outdoor installations including demanding industrial environments, with operation from -20 to +55 °C. The SMA female connector is on a 300 mm side fly lead. Integrated mounting holes allow direct fixing; the optional mounting bracket adds VESA bracket support. Matching SMA to RP-TNC cables in 2, 4, 6 and 8 m are listed under Cable Accessories.

The Times-7 A6034S is listed at IDCRAFT under UHF RFID antennas. Matching readers: fixed RAIN RFID readers.
