7.3 Adhesive
1. Locate a flat surface on the asset with sufficient area for the Tag’s
adhesive application (see diagram) area to be placed flush against
the surface of the asset.
2. Use 99% Isopropyl Alcohol to clean the adhesive application area
section of the tag as well as the area of the asset where the Tag is
to be mounted.
3. Wait for Alcohol to dry.
4. Use a VHB Double Sided tap (such as a 3M Branch VHB double
sided) such that one side of the tap adheres to the Tag adhesive
application area and the other side to the cleaned surface section
of the Asset where the tag is to be mounted.
5. Press the Tag with sufficient suppression onto the asset such that
the VHB tape makes contact with both the Tag and the asset and
creates a firm attachment.
Precautions
Make sure that
1. Selected location where the Tag is to be mounted on the asset is
such that
2. The surface area is flat
3. The mounted tag will not hinder the typical operation and use of
the asset and that
4. The Tag will not come in contact with force that can damage or
dislodge it.
5. The surface areas on the Asset and the Tag where the contact will
be made for mounting are cleaned with 99% isopropyl alcohol.
6. Sufficient time is allowed for the alcohol to dry.
