Crane Part No 101482a PCB Number 100/482. ISS.B. Front:
Rear:
Introduction - The RF module has been developed to integrate into Crane Electronics (CEL) product. The RF module allows digital information (of a torque nature) to be transmitted between CEL product. It is a transceiver that can operate as a transmitter or a receiver. Readings are transmitted as they are taken. The PCB is in standby when not transmitting. It has a small form factor to make it easy to integrate.

Crane Electronics Ltd The force in torque management Internal antenna (The unit cannot be mounted in a metal-shielded enclosure with this antenna. This restriction also includes the use of plastic with metal flakes and metallic based paint or lacquer.) If a metal enclosure then an external antenna should be used. Internal Antenna restriction:
The internal antenna must not be restricted by Metal in the hashed area shown in the following diagram:
External antenna type and connection: (UFL)WizNet W5E-WO-03L. Gain: 3dB. (use only approved antenna) o Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated above, are strictly forbidden. o The antenna is included in the FCC and R&TTE test reports, and thus approved for use in countries that accept those approvals.

BS EN50419:2006 marking of electrical and electronic equipment in accordance with WEEE directive. BS EN 62474:2012 Material declaration for products of and for the use of the electro technical industry. FCC statement This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired Operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver connected Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device contains FCC ID: TA6RFM01 The label must be affixed on an exterior surface of the end product such that it will be visible upon inspection in compliance with the modular approval guidelines developed by the FCC. FCC end product labelling In accordance with 47 CFR 15.19 the end product shall bear the following statement in a conspicuous location on the device:
"This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation."
When the device is so small or for such use that it is not practicable to place the statement above on it, the information shall be placed in a prominent location in the instruction manual or pamphlet supplied to the user or, alternatively, shall be placed on the container in which the device is marketed. However, the FCC ID label must be displayed on the device. In case, where the final product will be installed in locations where the end-consumer is not able to see the FCC ID and/or this statement, the FCC ID and the statement shall also be included in the end-product manual. RF-exposure statement The RF module is within the European and FCC RF Exposure limits at 20cm for Occupational use and General public. Antenna The module 10184a is for OEM integrations only into Crane Electronics product. In the end-user product the module shall be professionally installed in such a manner that only the authorized antennas can be used. Any changes or modifications NOT explicitly APPROVED by Crane Electronics could cause the module to cease to comply with FCC rules part 15, and thus void the user's authority to Operate the equipment. Operating frequency limited to channels 2 to 79.
