Lightning protection
Installation only in protected areas
Antennas and readers can be installed in the protected part of a building. When
implementing your lightning protection concept, make sure you adhere to the VDE 0182 or
IEC 62305 standards.
When installing outdoors, we recommend that you protect the readers/antennas from the
weather with a box.
The antenna RF650A must not be installed in the (protected) outdoor area.
