FDX-B Reader for Pet Microchip Identification
This handheld reader is designed for 134.2 kHz FDX-B animal microchips, one of the commonly used formats for electronic pet identification under ISO 11784/11785.
When the reader is brought near a compatible implanted transponder, it energizes the passive chip and retrieves its unique identification number. The ID can then be used for record checking, animal registration, or identification workflows.
The portable design makes the reader suitable for dogs, cats, and other microchipped animals in both indoor and field environments.
