Economical RFID temperature data logger

Datalogic introduces the DLR-TL001 RFID temperature logger. The DLR-TL001 logger is a low-cost, semi-passive UHF logger tag for monitoring temperature-sensitive products such as perishable foods and pharmaceuticals during transportation and storage. The combination of the high-resolution sensor, large memory size and standard RFID interface allows perishable items to be effectively tracked and traced during transportation and delivery.

The DLR-TL001 logger can be used with standard UHF RFID readers on the market without additional equipment due to its compatibility with EPC Global C1G2 and ISO18000-6C standards.

The tag can be configured to store temperature samples at intervals from 1 second to 18 hours in the internal memory, which can hold up to 3,958 samples. The user can define up to 16 temperature ranges with independent limit alarms for very accurate control of temperature excursions. The tag can be controlled either by a button or by standard RFID commands.
