6GT2801-4BA10 — Siemens SIMATIC RF300 Industrial RFID System
The Siemens SIMATIC RF300 is a 13.56 MHz industrial RFID identification system designed for part tracking, work-in-progress (WIP) monitoring, and tool identification on production and assembly lines. Operating to ISO 15693 / ISO 18000-3 Mode 1, the RF300 consists of compact IP67 read/write heads, passive MDS300 transponder tags in plastic, glass, or stainless steel housings, and interface modules connecting to SIMATIC S7 PLCs via IO-Link, RS-422, or PROFIBUS DP — providing automatic part identification at each production station without operator input.
The RF300's read range of up to 240 mm provides sufficient clearance for conveyor belt installations where the tag on the part carrier passes below or beside the reader without contact. MDS300 transponders store 64 to 2048 bytes of process data (recipe parameters, inspection results, routing decisions) written and read as the part travels the production line, enabling closed-loop, paper-free tracking that feeds directly to the plant MES or ERP via the SIMATIC S7 PLC and FB90 function block.
In Saudi Arabia, the SIMATIC RF300 KSA is gaining adoption in Vision 2030's growing manufacturing sector. Saudi automotive assembly plants, food and beverage manufacturers in MODON estates, and pharmaceutical manufacturers seeking FDA-compliant batch tracking are primary user industries. SABIC and Aramco downstream packaging facilities in Jubail deploy RF300 for production batch and quality data capture, ensuring full genealogy traceability for international customers.
Razz Middle East supplies SIMATIC RF300 systems complete with reader heads, transponders, interface modules, and TIA Portal FB90 integration support for Saudi manufacturing projects.

Key Features & Benefits
- 240 mm read range provides practical installation clearance on standard conveyor systems without precision alignment, reducing installation cost and simplifying tag placement on part carriers.
- 2048-byte transponder memory enables process data to travel with the part through the production line, enabling paper-free in-process quality recording without continuous network connection.
- IP67 reader heads withstand oil, coolant, and wash-down at Saudi food, pharmaceutical, and automotive facilities without false read errors from moisture ingress.
- IO-Link interface enables plug-and-play RFID integration via standard IO-Link master ports on S7-1500 and ET 200SP, eliminating dedicated fieldbus modules.
- SIMATIC FB90 function block in TIA Portal provides a standard PLC programming interface with pre-programmed diagnostic and error-handling, reducing application development time.
- Multiple tag housing options (plastic, glass to 210°C, stainless steel) extend RF300 to high-temperature and autoclave environments across the full range of Saudi manufacturing conditions.
- ISO 15693 standard ensures tag and reader interoperability between RF300 generations, protecting transponder investment when readers are upgraded.
Industrial Applications in Saudi Arabia
- Automotive part tracking on assembly conveyors at Saudi automotive assembly facilities, where RF300 heads at each station identify the pallet fixture and retrieve configuration data from tag memory.
- Pharmaceutical batch tracking at Saudi manufacturers, where tag memory stores batch number, production date, and in-process results for 21 CFR Part 11 audit trail compliance.
- Food processing production batch identification at MODON facilities, where stainless steel IP67 transponders on food-grade trays survive autoclave cycles and record production timestamps.
- Tool management at CNC machining centres, where RF300 tags on tool holders identify tool number, use count, and re-grinding status at machine tool magazines.
- SABIC and Aramco packaging line batch identification in Jubail, where RF300 records product variant, weight, and inspection status for customer delivery documentation.
- Warehouse receiving and inventory management at distribution centres, where RF300 readers at dock doors automatically identify incoming pallets and update the WMS.
- WIP routing control on flexible manufacturing systems at Vision 2030 defence and high-value facilities, where tag routing data drives automatic conveyor divert decisions.
