Spider wrap anti-theft label compatible EAS RF 8.2MHz with 32 cm cable

Li-Ion or Lithium batteries are one of the most common batteries used today.
We can find this type of battery in mobile phones, wireless headphones, UPS, smartwatches, cars, etc.

Lithium is a very light metal capable of generating ions easily, making it ideal for the manufacture of batteries.

Unlike other types of batteries, they are a bit more expensive, but in return, they are much smaller and lighter, capable of doubling the duration of a Ni-Cd battery.

Thanks to their composition, they can be manufactured in different shapes, adapting to the device where they are to be located, and their low memory effect makes them ideal for any type of device.

Summarizing their positive points:

• Easy to find
• Many different sizes and shapes
• Small size
• Lightweight
• Capable of accumulating more charge
• Less memory effect
• Long lasting
• Low self-discharge rate.

These batteries also have their negative points, namely:

• Lifespan of about 3 years.
• Limited number of charges, between 300 and 1000.
• They are more expensive.
• They can overheat to the point of exploding.
• Poorer performance in cold conditions.
• Highly variable voltage.

Within lithium batteries, we can find 3 types:

• Lithium-ion polymer batteries.
• Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4).
• Olivine-type lithium iron phosphate batteries.

Within the detection systems we can find different types according to their operation, among them the most common:

1. Infrared sensors
2. Vibration sensors.
3. Photoelectric sensors.
4. Ultrasound sensors.
5. Acoustic sensors

Each type of sensor uses different detection methods and each one is recommended according to the situation.

1. Sensors by infraRrojos, are one of the most used types, thanks to its reliable operation and installation, since we can find this type of wired and wireless sensors.
   The infrared sensor has a phototransistor capable of detecting the infrared electromagnetic radiation emitted by a body, this type of radiation is not visible by the human eye. A change of radiation in its perimeter will activate the relay and proceed to send ato alarm signal.
   Within these, there are two models, passive infrared sensor, which only has a phototransistor and assets, which have an emitter and a receiver.
2. Vibration sensors are used mostly in security systems, such as window sensors. car alarms etc.
   Its operation is based on an accelerometer, through a piezoelectric sensor. This type of sensorDue to its construction material it allows to detect changes and pressure when emitting an electric charge.
3. Photoelectric sensors, these are the sensors that use photoelectric rays, normally a transmitter and a receiver are used, they are commonly used in automatic door systems, elevator doors, production chains, etc.
4. The ultrasonic sensors are those that emit an acoustic signalabout 30 kHz, a signal that is not appreciated by humans. This signal or wave propagates through space, walls, objects, doors, etc. once the signal has spread the sensor is activated and any change will trigger the sensor.
   These types of sensors are also used in devices that require measuring distances and detecting objects.
5. Acoustic sensors, are those that can detect the signal emitted by anyobject and are able to detect the pressures that the acoustic waves emit, such as the noise of the crystals when breaking a window.

One hertz is one cycle per second, meaning repeating cycle as an event. For example, hertz is applied physics measuring the number of times for a second wave (either acoustic or electromagnetic) is repeated or can be applied, among other uses, to ocean waves that reach the Beach vibrations per second or a solid. The quantity that measures the frequency hertz is called,in this regard, the inverse of the period. One hertz is an oscillation frequency of suffering a particle over a period of one second.

The EAS RF (Electronic Article Surveillance) monitoring system or electronic surveillance system for items is a very common and effective method to guarantee the security of your business and minimize the risk of theft or theft.

This type of systems can be implemented in rigid or flexible systems, among which we can find the most common types.

Remember that depending on their type they can work in a frequencyto different.

• Magnetic label
• Acustomagnetic label, work on 58 MHz frequency.
• Radio frequency (RF) label, works in the frequency of 7.4-8.8 MHz, although they usually work in the 8.2 MHz, it is the most used in stores and businesses.
• Microwave label, they work in the frequency 2450 Mhz.

As mentioned, the most common security labels are RF, since it can befind in different formats, among them the most common:

• Rigid RF tag: Rigid security tags ideal for textile items, such as shirts, pants, coats etc ...
  This type of labels consist of a base of rigid plastic material connected to a pin type pin. Once united, it is only possible to uncouple them with a magnetic system.
• RF label with cable: Semi security labelsThanks to its steel cable, they can be adapted to other types of products, such as wine bottles, bicycles, machinery on display, etc. The decoupling system is by magnetic system as are the rigid ones.
• Soft RF label: Flexible security label, normally used in all types of products such as clothing, footwear, books, tools, food, etc ... thanks to its adhesive system. The system of deactIivation is through an RF deactivator. This deactivation system emits a very high RF impulse that manages to burn the internal diode, leaving the tag unusable.

Inside the RF tags we can find an aluminum helical antenna, connected to a diode or an RC circuit. This type of systems do not require power to operate, the anti-theft arches are responsible for sending an electromagnética that is absorbed by these labels that activate their circuit generating a return signal.

In the detection system based on EAS RF an emitter and receiver device is required, the most used are the anti-theft arches.
One of them works as an emitter and another as a receiver. Its installation must be done at the entrance or exit of the business and not placed less than 80 cm from each other.
These arches needan own food and can be regulated to be more or less sensitive.

The detection operation consists in that the emitter arc is sending (A) a signal that activates the label, when passing an alarm tag between the two arcs the label receives the signal from the emitter arc, this signal emitted by the label is received by the receiver arc (B) that is in charge of making the alarm go off.

The EAS RF deactivator is a device designed to electronically disable soft, adhesive and disposable anti-theft labels.

Its design is usually flat type, to facilitate its placement and installation on tables, counters etc.

Its operation is simple, it is only necessary to pass the label over the deactivator (A) and it will be unusable.

To deactivate the tagta (B) the system applies a very high electric impulse (C), this impulse is able to disable (destroy) the diode incorporated in the circuit of the label.

Once the label passes through the arc it will not detect the diode and the alarm will not be activated.

Within the wide range of batteries on the market we can differentiate two large groups, disposable batteries and rechargeable batteries.
Disposable batteries are those that only allow a single use and when they are exhausted they can not be recharged. These batteries can store their energy for years.

Rechargeable batteries are those that can be recharged once exhausted. This type is losing charge when they are storedaccording to voltage. The most common we can find them of 1.2V and 3.7V

As a last point you have to take into account that lithium batteries, Lipo, Life etc. Due to its composition, specific loaders should be used.
