Specifications & Intended Use for Water Detection Warranty Labels
Description:
General:
When water comes in contact with the label edge, the color changes from white to red. The color change begins within 5 seconds of water contact, progressing from the perimeter of the label and moving inward. The color change remains even after prolonged submersion in water.
Only the presence of water begins the color change. The material is designed to withstand heat and humidity aging without giving a false indication of water.
The water detection labels are constructed of a base paper which is laminated with clear film. The material thickness by product is as follows:
- 0.006 inches thick: C-143R, C-1075R, C-2000R, C-2010R
- 0.006 inches thick: C-143Ri, C-1075Ri, C-2000Ri
- 0.010 inches thick: C-286R, C-2x120
This material is typically used to detect water intrusion in electronic devices.
