RFID technology helps fire-fighting equipment management to achieve intelligent upgrades

RFID technology is a non-contact automatic identification technology. The identification process does not require manual intervention and can continue to work in various harsh environments. In addition, RFID technology also has the characteristics of long-distance, fast reading of multiple tags, and uniqueness of the identity of the information carrier. It has obvious advantages in the management of fire-fighting equipment, which can make the management of equipment easier and more convenient. Simple, avoid data errors and time consumption caused by manual operation and recording, solve the problems in the existing management mode, and provide guarantee for the safe use of fire-fighting equipment.

Next, learn about the specific application of rfid products in the management of fire-fighting equipment.

First, affix passive RFID electronic tags to all fire-fighting equipment within the jurisdiction. The tag records the purchase time, expiration time, installation time, person in charge, and number of inspections of the fire-fighting equipment, so that the fire-fighting equipment can be inspected. Equipment for life cycle management. Due to the variety of fire-fighting equipment and materials, RFID tags are more affected by metals and liquids. Therefore, the selection of electronic tags needs to consider the on-site application environment. It is recommended to consult a professional RFID hardware company. Broadway has more than 10 years of RFID technology experience. Various sizes of anti-metal tags are specially designed for metal and other complex environments. They have the characteristics of long reading distance, high sensitivity, easy installation, and excellent physical characteristics. The use effect is very ideal in the application of fire-fighting equipment management.

Second, each unit inspector is equipped with an RFID handheld data collection terminal, which can identify the rfid tag information on each fire-fighting equipment and communicate with the upper computer (management computer). Each inspector receives the inspection plan from the management department, scans (reads) each fire-fighting equipment in turn, and forms an inspection record in the background. If the equipment is found to be damaged or functioning abnormally, the inspector will hold it in his hand Make the corresponding selection on the machine and save it in the inspection record. RFID handheld terminal integrates powerful UHF read and write functions. Compared with traditional reading methods, it has better sensitivity, which helps to achieve more accurate and faster data collection.

Third, install RFID antennas and readers in the fire truck to obtain real-time information about the fire fighting equipment in the fire truck, compare it with the preset data, and display it on the equipped tablet computer to ensure that it can quickly identify when there is a fire fighting task. For the equipment information on the fire truck, after the firefighting task is completed, you can check whether the firefighting equipment brought back is missing to prevent the loss of the firefighting equipment. The RFID antenna selection mainly considers the polarization direction, antenna gain, beam angle, working frequency, mechanical size, application environment, etc. To ensure that the tag can be read when it rotates at will, we use a circularly polarized antenna and read through a coaxial cable connection. The writer realizes data collection, and then confirms the installation position and quantity of the antenna and the reader according to the on-site environment.

Fourth, deploy and install an RFID access control system at the door or passage of the fire-fighting warehouse to identify the information of the fire-fighting equipment entering and leaving the warehouse, so as to manage the entry and exit of the fire-fighting equipment and the warehouse. When the fire-fighting equipment enters and exits the access control, the access control will automatically identify the equipment with the electronic tag, read its related information, and upload the information to the background server. If the equipment is moved without authorization, it is an illegal tag, and the access control will give an alarm. The ultra-high frequency access control system independently developed and designed by Broadway Intelligent supports the EPC C1 G2 (ISO18000-6C) protocol, supports the server mode to achieve multi-channel control functions, and integrates high-gain antenna groups, high-speed readers and control modules based on ImpinjR2000 , With high-speed tag reading performance and good read-write area control capabilities, it provides a standard RS232 or RJ45 interface for easy connection to the software platform.

RFID technology is applied to the management of fire-fighting equipment. By installing RFID electronic tags on the fire-fighting equipment, binding corresponding equipment information in the background, installing RFID reading and writing equipment in key nodes and processes, and collecting RFID electronic tag information. Accurately obtain the detailed information of equipment, strengthen the information management ability of fire equipment, and effectively guarantee the supervision of the inspection process, thereby improving the management level of the entire fire equipment, vigorously eliminating various hidden safety hazards, and realizing fire equipment The whole life cycle management process realizes intelligent management upgrade.
