Instructions for installation of the antenna.
You can choose from three types of antenna's
1. The small antenna 340 mm x 180 mm (0,75 mm² wire)
2. The large antenna 340 mm x 360 mm (1,5 mm² wire)
3. Floor antenna
When feeding takes place in the milking parlour, normally the small
antenna will do. In that case the position of the transponder is always
the same, because the cow will consume feed.
The large antenna must be used for installations without feeding.
Because of the varying position of the transponder, you usually
need a larger antenna.
The maximum identification distance of a perfectly connected
transponder to an antenna, that is not liable to iron load in an
interference free room, is 60 cm.
From this goes to show that the identification distance can be
influenced by:
A. the connection of the transponder to the antenna
B. the amount of iron near de antenna
C. interference in the room (60 khz to 250 khz).
Above-mentioned points will be described in more details below.
A. The connection of the transponder to the antenna
The transponder has been encapsulated in the housing in such
way that the perfect connection can be realized with a plate mounted
in an upright position at right angles to the transponder.
TRANSPONDER
ANTENNA
B The amount of iron near the antenna.
The field intensity of the antenna is strongly influenced by iron near the
antenna. In case the iron near the antenna forms an electric conducting
Circuit, the antenna can be overloaded so the circuit can not be tuned
anymore.
Therefore, you must never place an antenna in an iron frame.
Try to use non ferro material for the mounting of the antenna.

The larger the antenna is, the more this will be an issue.
C Interference in the room
The transponder transmits a weak signal at about 130 khz. If there are
machines in the milking parlour, at or near this frequency, which radiate,
this radiation (interference) will soon be stronger than the signal of
the transponder, which causes a bad identification.
The larger the antenna is, the more this will be an issue.
Length antenna cable
The max. length of the antenna cable must be kept as short as
possible and may never under any circumstances be longer than
2,5 metres.
The cable on the outside of the antenna must be twisted tightly
(see draw.)
Max 2,5 meter
ANT
For the use of floor antenna in concrete pay attention to following
instructions and the photo's on the next page.
For the test shown on the photo's we have used a floor antenna
200x300 mm and concrete iron 150x150mm with a diameter of 6mm
as well as 3 bars of iron with a diameter of 10 mm and a Tiris
transponder.
If the antenna is placed directly on the iron the ID distance is 15 cm.
If the antenna is placed 4,5 cm above the iron the ID distance is 35 cm.
If the antenna is placed 7 cm above the iron the ID distance is 40 cm.
If the antenna is placed 10,5 cm above the iron the ID distance is 44 cm.
Advice: Between 7 and 10,5 cm concrete between the iron and the
antenna, which means that the total concrete thickness above the iron
squares is at least 10 cm.
