BIS VU-330 - the M30 UHF short range reader for space-critical applications
Built for tight spaces. Engineered for high speed.
With the BIS VU-330, Balluff expands its RFID portfolio with a compact UHF reader in M30 format, to be combined with the proven BIS V-61xx processor unit. This reader offers a powerful solution for precise identification in the near-field range, specifically developed for space-constrained and high-speed applications.
Thanks to a read range of up to 300 mm and the ability to detect up to ten transponders simultaneously, the BIS VU-330 is ideal for dynamic processes in the automotive industry, metalworking,
and factory automation. lts compact design allows for easy integration directly into machines or conveyor systems-even in areas where UHF solutions were previously oversized.
A key highlight is its low susceptibility to interference in the UHF range, minimizing reflections and signal disruptions. On top of that the Auto Setup function significantly simplifies commissioning and ensures fast integration into existing systems. With international approvals for Europe, the USA, Canada, and China, the BIS VU-330 is ready for global deployment-making it the ideal choice for machine and equipment manufacturers operating worldwide.
Why Choose the BIS VU-330?
Versatile across industries
From automotive and metalworking to intralogistics and packaging, the BIS VU-330 is designed for demanding environments. Whether for tracking materials in machines, for integration into automated guided vehicles or for digitization at reading points - this reader always delivers optimum results.
