DESCRIPTION
The iButton Capsule is a mechanical enclosure to protect Temperature Logger iButtons (DS1921 and DS1922 series) from moisture, solvents and pressure. It provides IP68 protection to the iButton inside (refer to Application Note 4126: Understanding the IP (Ingress Protection) Ratings of iButton Data Loggers and Capsule). The protection level exceeds the “Water Resistant 3 ATM” requirements.
The DS9107 consists of a base with the cavity for a F5 iButton, a screw-in plug with O-ring to seal the enclosure, and a top with two stainless-steel screws to mount the iButton Capsule to a cable, e.g., to measure temperature at different levels within a liquid. The cable is inserted into the notch of the plug where it is held in place by the matching protrusion of the top piece.
