To remove the protective tape from the sensor, follow these steps:
1. Ensure you are using proper ESD protection.
2. Using covered fingers or tweezers to prevent debris from falling into the filter, sensor cover, or die, grip the overhanging front edge of the protective tape.
3. Peel the tape back from the top surface of the sensor, ensuring that the complete rectangle of protective tape is removed.
Please refer to Figure 1 in the manual for a visual representation of the tape removal process.
It is important to note that the sensor is factory-shipped with a protective tape on the cover (sensing face), which must remain in place during soldering. After soldering, the protective tape should be removed to activate the sensor.
For more detailed information and illustrations, please refer to the "Protective Tape Removal" section in the Honeywell HIH6000 Series HumidIcon Digital Humidity Temperature Sensors Instruction Manual.
