Note
The tool identifier is NOT delivered from ABB, it is a customized solution.
Action
It is possible to use any RFID solution, with the
correct dimensions. ABB has verifed function on
some suppliers fulfilling the requirements of NFC
compatible devices (13.56 Mhz) according to ISO
14443 or ISO 15693.
Note
The maximum dimensions on the RFID chip must
not exceed Ø7.9 mm x 8.0 mm, Ø5.9 mm x 8.0
mm or Ø3.9 mm x 8.0 mm (depending on calibra-
tion tool size).
There is a cavity on one end of the calibration tool
in which the RFID chip can be installed.
Install the RFID chip according to supplier instruc-
tions.
Install the chip in flush with the tool end.
