Ingress Protection
IP69K
The power supply of the RFC1000-IP69K is not rated
as splash proof. Exposing the power supply to moisture
will potentially damage the unit. Additional precautions
should be taken by the user if the power supply will be
exposed to a condensing environment.
RFC1000-IP69K Product Overview
For environments that require high pressure, high temperature washdown, MadgeTech has
designed the RFC1000-IP69K. This new waterproof transceiver can be installed directly in
the wash down location, ensuring 100% communication throughout the entire process.
MadgeTech has gone through extensive testing to ensure that the new RFC1000-IP69K can
withstand wash down cycles using caustic chemicals, making it ideal for harsh environments.
This model includes a high powered transceiver with an IP69K ingress protection rating. The
RFC1000-IP69K has a substantial transmit range, providing better performance in occluded
environments such as ovens and refrigerators. This new The RFC1000-IP69K also includes an
external antenna which is protected by a neoprene boot.
Operating Environment
The RFC1000-IP69K is rated for use in an environment with temperatures from -20 °C to 85 °C
and a humidity range of 0 %RH to 100 %RH. The device has been specifically tested to ensure
its ability to resist water ingress as well as dust. The RFC1000-IP69K will withstand high pressure
and high temperature wash down cycles using caustic chemicals, as the enclosure is made of
Acetal plastic. The cover is made of 300 series stainless steel and the antenna is protected by
a Neoprene boot. This model is ideal for areas where additional durability and a water proof
rating are required. The RFC1000-IP69K ensures communication with the MadgeTech wireless
loggers even in the harshest of applications.
