This family covers the cylindrical, disc and small flat-form RFID electronic tags of the Telemecanique OsiSense XG range. All tags operate at 13.56 MHz to ISO 15693, are batteryless and read/write; the degree of protection is IP68. XGHB123345 is Ø 12 × 8 mm and XGHB211345 M18 × 1 × 12 mm cylindrical, XGHB221346 a 26 × 26 × 13 mm flat form. XGHB320345 and XGHB320246 are Ø 30 × 3 mm discs, XGHB520246 a Ø 50 × 3 mm disc. Memory ranges from 112 to 2,000 bytes; XGHB320246 uses FeRAM, the others EEPROM.
The nominal sensing distance is 18–70 mm with the XGCS49 antenna and 20–100 mm with the XGCS89 and XGCS85 antennas; the largest value belongs to the Ø 50 mm XGHB520246 disc. XGHB221346, XGHB320345, XGHB320246 and XGHB520246 can also be used with XGFEC field expanders added to the XGCS4901201 antenna. XGHB221346 can be mounted on a metal support. XGHB320345 and XGHB520246 have PPA housings and operate from -25 to +85 °C; XGHB520246 withstands +140 °C for 10 minutes maximum, except during data exchange. The other tags operate from -25 to +70 °C. Data retention time is 10 years.
