2.0 SENSOR HANDLING
CAUTION
IMPROPER HANDLING
Do not remove the sensor from its original protective
packaging until it is ready to be installed.
Do not touch the sensor surface. Use latex finger cots.
Handle the sensor by its package edges or leads.
Do not allow objects to enter the cavity of the sensor
element.
Do not allow debris or contaminants to accumulate on
the filter.
Failure to comply with these instructions may result in
product damage.
3.0 SENSOR CLEANING
CAUTION
IMPROPER CLEANING
Insert and solder the sensor after the PCB cleaning
process.
Failure to comply with these instructions may result in
product damage.
4.0 SENSOR POSITIONING
CAUTION
IMPROPER SENSOR POSITIONING
Position the sensor so that its face is exposed to the
atmosphere being monitored.
Ensure dust and condensation are avoided.
Failure to comply with these instructions may result in
product damage.
5.0 SENSOR SOLDERING
CAUTION
IMPROPER SOLDERING
For better product reliability, the sensor is factory-
shipped with a protective tape on the cover (sensing
face). This tape must remain in place during soldering.
After soldering, remove the protective tape as described
below to activate the sensor.
Failure to comply with these instructions may result in
product damage.
Automated: Use a no-clean flux. Limit the contact of the
flux to the leads only. Reflow soldering profile specified by
J-STD-020D for a small package is a peak temperature of
260 C [500 F] for 30 s.
Manual: Do not exceed 350 C [662 F] for 4 s max.
6.0 MOISTURE SEALING THE LEADS
If, in the presence of intermittent moisture or other
contaminants, there is the possibility of galvanic paths between
the leads, moisture seal the leads and exposed pads prior to
removing the protective tape.
7.0 PROTECTIVE TAPE REMOVAL
1. Use proper ESD protection.
2. Using covered fingers or tweezers to ensure that no debris
falls into the filter, sensor cover or die, grip the
overhanging front edge of the protective tape and peel it
back from the top surface of the sensor. (See Figure 1.)
3. Ensure the complete rectangle of protective tape is
removed.

8.0 SENSOR REHYDRATION
NOTICE
SENSOR REHYDRATION
Exposure to elevated temperatures, such as those
experienced during solder reflow, may dry out the sensing
element. It is recommended that the sensor be allowed
time to rehydrate after soldering or other high
temperature/dry exposures.
Exposure to these conditions will not permanently
damage the sensor. It will generally return to its factory-
calibrated value after rehydration.
If rehydration is not performed, the sensor may read a
slight offset that slowly disappears over time as the
sensor becomes exposed to ambient conditions.
Conversely, extended exposure to condensing and high
humidity environments (>90 %RH) may cause a revisable
shift in readings which will generally return to normal after
the sensor has been allowed to dry off.
To rehydrate the sensor, expose it to room temperature under
ambient conditions (>50 %RH) for a minimum of five hours.

WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY
DO NOT USE these products as safety or emergency
stop devices or in any other application where failure of
the product could result in personal injury.
The sensor’s housing does not provide electrical safety
isolation. Mount the sensor in a location where it cannot
be touched, or where a surrounding barrier prevents
human contact.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in
death or serious injury.
