Placing Tags on Jet Engine
Shipping Containers
The Savi ST-673 Sensor Tag in the supplied metal mounting sleeve
attaches through the ports on the jet engine container to monitor humidity
inside the shipping container.
There are a variety of jet engine shipping container configurations. Some
have the mounting hole for the tag on the bottom of the container; others
have a hole for the tag higher up on a side.
In many cases the top of the container may end up on a different bottom
platform, in which case the tag should be on the bottom section.
The tag will have a 100-foot (30m) read/write range to Savi SR-650 Fixed
Readers when mounted a foot or less above the ground, up to a range of
300-feet (100m) when mounted 3 or more feet (1m or more) above
ground level. For the most consistent communications with the tag, the
Fixed Readers must be mounted:
• to have an unobstructed line-of-sight to the tag
• at 20 feet (6m) or higher
caution: Tags mounted close to the ground may have less range.
Mounting the Tag
Mounting the tag requires screws and a metal mounting sleeve. The tag,
in the supplied metal mounting sleeve, attaches through the ports on the
jet engine container to monitor humidity inside the shipping container.
The ST-673 includes these required mounting fasteners:
• Stainless steel screws and washers
• Metal mounting sleeve
