2.1.1 Public Exposure
The Library RFID pedestals are designed assuming that patrons cross the detection area within a
couple of seconds on their way in and out of the Library at a normal walking pace. General public
should not stand in the detection area for more than 10 to 20 seconds.

2.3 Regulatory Notices
An RFID system typically composed of an RF emission device such as the L-SP3 connected
to an antenna is subject to national regulations that may differ by country.
One important item to consider is the maximum permissible magnetic field intensity at a distance of
10 meters from the antenna that must not exceed 60dBµA/m in Europe and 38dBµA/m in US.
10 meters from the antenna that must not exceed 60dBµA/m in Europe and 38dBµA/m in US.
The L-SP3 meets these limits.
Librarian should make sure that nobody stands still in the Gate
