Page 5: R151 Tethered Temperature Sensor
Temperature Sensor Introduction The R151 Tethered Temperature Sensor is a battery-powered RF transmitter that monitors and reports the temperature measured by a digital thermometer located at the end of a 6-foot plenum-rated tether cable. This design provides physical separation between the RF transmitter and the sealed temperature sensor. This allows the tethered sensor cable to be in- stalled in harsh environments, particularly when compared to the R150 Temperature Tag. -

RF transmissions in high-density deployments, such as within racks and data centers. The RF transmitter operates with a low duty cycle that translates to long battery life. The R151 temperature tag has an expected life of a minimum of 5 years*. -
Page 7: Installation Steps
In some installation instances the temperature sensor tether cable may need to be removed. The following steps outline the process for removing and reattaching the temperature sensor tether cable: 1. Remove the R151 RF Transmitter case top using a Philips head screwdriver to remove the four case screws and set aside tag case top and screws. - Page 8 2. Using a standard size 2 or smaller Flat head screwdriver, loosen the two tether connection terminals. Gently pull the wire ends from the respective terminals to detach the temperature sensor tether cable from the RF transmitter.

5. Determine proper position and placement for the R151 Tethered Temperature Sensor mounting. Keep in mind that the temperature sensor tether cable will need to be reattached to the adhesive and its positioning should not cause strain on the tag nor the tether. Remove the paper backing from the tag and press firmly for ten seconds to mount it into place (or optionally secure by using mechanical fasteners or tie-wraps). -
