Tape placement
For sensor installation (motion, comfort, door counter), we advise using double sided tape.
At Spacewell, we always use double sided tape from brand Tesa Powerbond Ultra Strong (5m * 19mm) for the motion sensors. This tape is strong and works for all the different types of sensors.
We estimate that you use 3-5cm per sensor, and 6cm for a door counter (2 parts for 1 sensor). So, you can probably hang roughly 100 sensors per roll.
Best practice:
- Tape: Press the tape in the crook of the sensor to ensure good adhesion / bigger surface area

Spacewell Hardware catalogue includes 3 kinds of Browan sensors:
Browan Battery Replacement
When replacing a battery (or even placing the same battery again), make sure that the capacitor will deplete (meaning there is no left-over "power" inside the sensor) by either
wait for at least 6h between removal and replacement of the battery
or connect the both poles by a metal wire (for example a folded open paperclip) for more than 10 seconds (see image)
| Info |

Best Practice: measure the voltage with a voltage meter to be sure the capacitor is drained. |
| Info |
|---|
Make sure that gateways are confirmed connecting to the Workplace Platform when performing this action, so that the sensor (that has just found power again) can easily connect to the gateway without depletion of the battery. |
Browan sensors work on 1/2 AA 3.6V lithium batteries
Recommended brands: SAFT, Omnicell, Xeno, EVE, RAMWAY
Battery type: ER14250
