16-book L-SA1 Library Stack Antenna Reference Guide
1. Introduction
General
This document provides information about the 16-book L-SA1 Library Stack Antenna. It
describes the product and how to install it.
Product Description
This antenna is composed of two PCBs located on a single ferrite support, 30 mm from
each other, providing a large area of detection (Cf Figure 1). This antenna is optimized
for use with the TAGSYS L-L100 Library reader for multiple check in/out operations.
Due to its specific design, the 16-book L-SA1 Library Stack Antenna can be safely used
in proximity with other TAGSYS RFID products. It will work also, if properly installed, in
metallic type environments (see chapter installation for further details). In this case,
performance may be reduced.
The antenna is provided with rubber base pads for installation in a standard desktop
configuration.
Although this antenna has been specifically designed for library applications, it can also
be used for any application requiring a desktop station which has a good immunity to its
environment.
The antenna has been factory calibrated to an impedance of 50 Ω which offers optimal
performances when the antenna is installed on the surface of the desk or table.
It may be necessary to retune the antenna once installed if the environment is highly
metallic or if the antenna is installed underneath the table or desk. Please refer to the
Chapter Installation of this reference guide for more information.
Optimal performance is achieved when the smart labels to be read are placed parallel to
the antenna surface and centered on the antenna surface.

2. Installation
Standard Installation
The recommended installation for the 16-book L-SA1 Library Stack Antenna is the
desktop configuration. Its thin shape is ergonomically designed for discreet use at the
circulation desk for multiple check in/out operations.
The antenna is designed for indoor use.
Desktop Configuration
The antenna is specially designed to operate:
• On wooden, synthetic or metallic desks (or including metallic parts)
• In close proximity to other antennas
Place the antenna on the desk and connect the two BNC connectors to channels CH1
and CH2 of the L-L100 Library reader.
Active face
Figure 2: Standard installation
Always ensure that the reader is switched off before connecting or
disconnecting the antenna.
1. For optimum performance, always ensure that all metallic or conductive parts are
located under the antenna.
2. Do not shorten or extend the supplied cable as this may affect performance.
3. Do not place the antenna cable close to other cables, especially power cables.

Specific Installation
The 16-book L-SA1 Library Stack Antenna is provided with a mounting kit for specific
installations. This mounting kit can be used to orient the active face of the antenna
depending your application.
Notes: 1.
2.
3.
Metallic or conductive parts must not be present in front of the
active face of the antenna.
For best performance, always request an installation
compliance agreement from Tagsys Custom Services regarding
your specific installation.
The Tagsys Antenna Tuning Kit Device may be required to
verify the tuning of antennas for a specific installation.

This configuration reduces reading or writing performance
(distance). For optimum performance, the antenna must placed
above the desk and not underneath.
Always ensure that metallic or conductive parts are located
under the antenna.

4. Regulation and Warranty
Conditions
Regulatory Notices
An RFID system including a 16-book L-SA1 Library Stack Antenna connected to a
reader contains RF emission devices and thus is subject to national regulations that may
differ by country.
For antennas, one important item to consider is the maximum permissible magnetic field
intensity at 10 m from the antenna and which shall not exceed 42 dBµA/m in Europe and
38 dBµA/m in US.
When using a 16-book L-SA1 Library Stack Antenna with a L-L100 Library reader set at
conditions as defined in this Reference Guide and for the Library application, these limits
are met.
When used in the library application, It is the responsibility of the
TAGSYS Reseller to install the 16-book L-SA1 Library Stack
Antenna as described in this Reference Guide or in TAGSYS
Documentation.
When using a 16-book L-SA1 Library Stack Antenna in a different
configuration (different power settings for the reader, different
smart labels being used), it is your responsibility to check that the
above-mentioned limits are not exceeded. You will have to test your
configuration in a listed laboratory and then obtain approval by the
local authorities before installing and selling it.
In Canada
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B respecte toutes les exigences du Règlement sur
le matériel brouilleur du Canada.
This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian InterferenceCausing Equipment Regulations.

ANTENNA REQUIREMENT
47 CFR Section 15.203
CAUTION: This equipment must be professionally installed. The installer shall be responsible
for ensuring that the proper antenna is employed so that the limits in this part are not exceeded.
Non-professional installation or installation of the equipment with an improper antenna may void
the equipment authorisation from the FCC and will void the TAGSYS warranty.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) The system devices may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) The library system devices must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation

equipment to CE and RTTE Directives and will void the TAGSYS warranty.
WARNING:
If a 16-book L-SA1 Library Stack Antenna (plus a L-L100 Library
reader) is further integrated in a different product, it is the
responsibility of the manufacturer of this complementary product to
obtain the required approvals for this product.
Occupational Health and Safety Notices
TAGSYS Library System components (including Library Stack Antenna 16 books L-SA1)
have been designed not to exceed the limits given in the European Standard EN 50364
“Limitation of human exposure to electromagnetic fields from devices used in Electronic
Article Surveillance (EAS), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and similar
applications” in conjunction with the European Standard EN 50357 describing how to
evaluate the exposure level.
It is the responsibility of the TAGSYS Reseller to install the TAGSYS Library System
components as described in TAGSYS Product Manuals or TAGSYS Documentation.
Modification of any TAGSYS Library System is prohibited without the written consent of
TAGSYS. Unauthorized modifications may void the conformity of the equipment to
safety norm and will void the TAGSYS warranty.
An RF fields survey has been carried out on all the Library System components
(including Library Stack Antenna 16 books L-SA1), in accordance with AS/NZS 2771.1:
Radio Frequency Radiation, Part 1. According to this standard the maximum allowable
RF exposure levels (non-occupational) at 3 kHz to 300 GHz are 200 µW/cm2. The
maximum found was 1.09 µW/cm2 at 13.56 MHz. For all locations maximum power
density was well below the maximum allowable levels. The highest level found was only
0.55% of the maximum.
