Features:
- Integrated AS-i node: Antenna and evaluation electronics share one compact housing for direct network connection.
- Contactless identification: Tagged carriers can be recognized without mechanical contact or optical line of sight.
- Local diagnostics: Multicolor indicators assist with supply, tag communication and network-error checks.
DTA101 is intended to read compatible LF RFID tags as carriers move through a controlled sensing zone.
The integrated AS-i interface reduces the need for a separate local evaluation module at the read point.
Read reliability still depends on tag orientation, spacing, surrounding metal and correct network commissioning.
Apter Power can help confirm the ifm DTA101 RFID Read Antenna with AS-Interface, tag geometry and network integration before quotation.

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- Exact identity: Require DTA101 and its read-head designation on the offered unit.
- Mechanical envelope: Confirm the existing bracket and connector clearance.
- Frequency family: Keep the replacement within the documented LF system architecture.
- Evidence package: Retain the OEM DTA type/profile table with the quotation.
- Bracket retention: Keep the original mounting hardware with the antenna location.
- Face protection: Prevent tools or carriers from striking the sensing face.
- Connector integrity: Seat and secure the A-coded M12 connection.
- Cable support: Relieve cable load so it is not transferred to the connector.
- Housing inspection: Record impact, abrasion or connector damage before testing.
- Known-part record: Keep a verified tag identifier in the maintenance file.
- Bracket record: Photograph the antenna position before mechanical work.
- Replacement history: Record the removed and installed DTA model codes separately.
- Routing conveyors: Identifies workpiece carriers at decision points.
- Assembly tracking: Reads pallet identities for recipe or station selection.
- Material-flow control: Reports tagged containers to an AS-i-connected control system.
- Legacy RFID maintenance: Restores a documented LF read point without changing the network architecture.
