The Gallagher Large Panel Antenna 1300 x 600mm: Hands Free EID Reading for Larger Animals and Bigger Setups

If you're working with larger livestock or need a bigger read zone to capture EID tags reliably as animals move through your crush or race, the Gallagher Large Panel Antenna 1300 x 600mm gives you exactly that. This fixed, hands free antenna panel automatically scans EID tags as animals walk past or are being weighed, with tag numbers recorded directly within your connected EID Tag Reader Controller or TWR Weigh Scale. No calibration required, no complicated setup process, just mount it to the side of your weigh location or race, plug it in, and start collecting EID data straight away.

How the Gallagher Large Panel Antenna 1300 x 600mm Works in Your Yards

The antenna automatically tunes to your chosen Tag Reader Controller or TWR Weigh Scale without any fiddling or manual calibration, which keeps the setup process simple and gets you operational quickly. With a read range of up to 1.2 metres, it picks up EID tags reliably as animals walk past or stand in the crush during weighing without needing them to slow down or stop in a specific spot. It reads all ISO electronic identification ear tags and is compatible with both half duplex HDX and full duplex FDX-B tags, so it works with whatever tagging system you're already running. Note that if you're connecting to a TWR Weigh Scale specifically, Gallagher recommend using the TWR Tag Reader Antenna Panel or an additional Antenna Extension Lead for best results.

Simple Installation With Everything Included With the Gallagher Large Panel Antenna 1300 x 600mm

All the hardware you need for installation is included in the box. Mount the panel to the side of your weigh location or race using the reinforced mounting hardware, connect to your TWR Weigh Scale or EID Tag Reader Controller, and you're ready to go. The antenna is powered by the connected EID controller or TWR Scale so there's no battery to charge or replace, removing one more thing to think about when you're in the middle of a busy day in the yards. The high quality waterproof connectors give you a reliable and secure connection to your hardware that holds up in wet and dirty conditions.

Built to Handle Whatever the Yards Throw at It

The fully sealed waterproof construction is built to withstand the harshest farming environments, so dust, rain, mud, and the general punishment of daily yard work are not going to cause any issues with this panel. It's a unit designed to be mounted, connected, and left to do its job without needing regular attention or protection from the elements. Backed by a 1 year warranty, it's a practical and reliable addition to any weighing or EID data collection setup.
