Range planning
Please follow the recommendations of the EnOcean Alliance (see www.enocean.com/en) when placing the EnOcean devices. Adherence to the recommendations is conducive to an optimum range and high noise immunity.
Attenuation of different materials
Material | Attenuation |
---|---|
Wood, plaster, uncoated glass (without metal) | 0...10 % |
Brick, chipboard | 5...35 % |
Concrete with iron reinforcement | 10...90 % |
Metal, aluminum cladding | 90..100 % |
Range
Material | Range |
---|---|
Line of sight | Typically 30 m in corridors, up to 100 m in halls |
Plasterboard walls/wood | Typically 30 m, through max. 5 walls |
Brick walls/aerated concrete | Typically 20 m, through max. 3 walls |
Reinforced concrete walls/ceilings | Typically 10 m, through max. 1 wall/ceiling |
Placement of the KL6583 module
The KL6583 module contains transmitter, receiver and antenna.
Distances
The distance to a reinforced concrete ceiling should be at least 50 cm and to a wall 10 cm.
Do not attach or screw the KL6583 module to a metal plate!
Environmental conditions
Furthermore, the environmental conditions are to be adhered to:
- Maximum air humidity 95% no condensation
- Ambient temperature 0...55 °C
