Mounting Loggers
Because they are small and light, you can easily mount
Vaisala Veriteq loggers in the field using a variety of
techniques including Velcro strips, double-sided tape, duct
tape, and magnetic strips.
In harsh environments, place the logger in a standard
industrially-rated enclosure, and run external sensors and
probes from the enclosure using special fittings in the
openings.
Some tips for placing loggers:
• Ventilation - Do not obstruct the air passage holes in the
logger. There should be a clear path for the air to get to the
internal sensors (if they are used or available).
• Vibration - Excessive vibration can knock the unit off its
mounting. If the location is subject to excessive jarring or
vibration, mount the logger more securely.
• Temperature - Excessive temperature (low or high) can
affect adhesives.
