Removing sensors can be delicate, but with the right approach, it can be done without causing any damage.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you safely remove them, ensuring they remain functional for future use:
-
Prepare the Right Tools:
Before you start, we advise having the proper tools on hand. The best tool for the job is one with a square hole matching the dimensions of the sensor. This will allow you to securely grip the sensor without applying excessive force. If such a tool isn't available, seek an alternative that closely matches the sensor dimensions (19mm), like a wrench or spanner. -
Avoid Using Sharp Tools:
Never use knives, screwdrivers, or similar sharp tools to pry off the sensors. These tools can easily cause irreparable damage to the sensors. -
Twist Gently:
Begin by gently twisting the sensor back and forth. This helps to loosen the adhesive holding the sensor in place. Be patient and apply steady, gentle pressure to avoid breaking. -
Loosen Slowly:
Once the sensor starts to loosen, continue to twist and gently pull it away from the desk surface.
Consider Range Extenders:
When installing sensors, we recommend considering using range extenders. These devices not only enhance the sensor's connectivity but also make sensor removal easier without risking damage.
