Its FPC inlay is sealed in silicone and measures 55 by 12 by 2.5 mm at 2.1 g, so it does not damage delicate fabric.
What is the read range of this UHF RFID laundry tag?
This UHF RFID laundry tag is rated up to 6 metres on textiles at 4 W EIRP in the 902 to 928 MHz band. Real-world range in India depends on reader power, antenna and stack density within the 865 to 867 MHz WPC band, and the tag uses an Impinj Ucode 8 or Ucode 9 chip on EPC Class 1 Gen2.
How is an RFID laundry tag attached to garments and linen?
An RFID laundry tag can be sewn into a seam, heat-pressed, pasted or placed in a small fabric pocket, depending on the garment and the wash process. Hospitals, hotels and uniform management operations in India use these methods to keep the 55 by 12 mm silicone tag secure through repeated industrial washing.
Are RFID laundry tags safe for hospital linen and MRI rooms?
Yes, this UHF silicone laundry tag is non-magnetic and MRI safe, compatible with 1.5T and 3.0T scanners, and it survives autoclave sterilisation, which suits hospital linen and scrubs.
