Hello everyone,
I was curious if anyone has heard or used any RFID equipment in a Class 1 Division 2 hazardous location. Methane gas is the hazard and will definitely be encountered in the location. I am using AB control logix PLC's in several locations (all hazardous) and was hoping to implement a RFID system for personnel tracking with a serial or ethernet interface to my CPU's. I would like to be able to see when different people (roughyl 25-30) are in the hazardous enviroment and was hoping to use a tag that can be worn on clothing. I have found several systems that meet the application requirements but am having trouble finding a system that meets the Class 1 Division 2 certification (CSA, UL, FM etc.) Has anyone seen or used a similar system? Any advise or input would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
