2.6. Sensor Mounting Tips
The electronics in a wireless sensor are water-resistant, but not waterproof. Wireless sensors
need to be mounted in a safe location, where the chance of them becoming submerged in a
liquid are minimal. Sensors can be mounted with double-faced tape or adhesive velcro. To
mount a sensor on a metallic surface, purchase adhesive-backed magnetic tape and adhere it to
the back of the sensor. Use magnetic tape that is 0.5 inch (1.27cm) wide. The magnetic tape
will not disturb the electronics, and when placed correctly, the tape allows the sensor’s label to
remain visible. The serial number on this label is unique to each sensor, and you will need to
refer to this number throughout the life span of the sensor.
Figure 2.16 Magnetic Strips Used to Mount a Sensor
To mount sensors using magnetic tape:
1
For each sensor, cut two 1.5-inch (3.81cm) strips of tape.
Figure 2.17 Recommended Length of 0.5 Inch for Magnetic Strip
2
Make sure the back of the sensor is clean. If necessary, use isopropyl alcohol to clean the
sensor.
3
Remove the protective film from the adhesive side of the magnetic tape and place the tape
on the sensor.
4
Place the sensor in the desired location.
