Humidity, Dew Point and Moisture Measurements Try Vaisala's Humidity Calculator Water (H2O) can present itself in three different forms: solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (humidity). Humidity is an invisible gas that can be measured and defined with different parameters. Relative humidity indicates the present state relative to maximum humidity in a given temperature. Dew point temperature indicates the temperature to which air needs to be cooled in order to reach condensation. For industrial-scale manufacturing, controlling these parameters is a must for good quality end-products and efficient manufacturing processes. Get to know Vaisala’s reliable and durable measurement solutions for humidity, dew point, and moisture. Humidity Humidity is measured in many air control applications, where the relative humidity is for the most part over 10 %. Relative humidity (RH) is a measure of the water vapor content of air. For more information, read the article what relative humidity is and why it is important. Find humidity measurement products by typical applications: test chambers, building automation and HVAC, spray drying, paint booths, biogas production, and bio-decontamination. HUMIDITY GUIDE FOR SMART INDUSTRIES White paper: Controlling high-humidity applications with dew point temperature This white paper is a vital resource for anyone aiming to maintain a controlled environment in a high-humidity application. Download the White Paper Dew Point Dew point measurements are needed when controlling air in dry processes, usually with relative humidity below 10 %. For more information about dew point, read the article "What is dew point and how to measure it?". Find dew point measurement products by typical application: compressed air drying, fluid bed drying, 3D printing, lithium-ion battery manufacturing, and semiconductor manufacturing. Choose the right instrument for humidity and dew point Moisture Avoiding moisture in concrete or structures requires high quality measurement. Moisture measurements are essential also when there is a need to protect engines or to ensure high-quality oil with moisture in oil measurements Moisture in Oil (MiO) measurement High-quality measurement benefits Energy-savings Especially in drying applications, accurate humidity measurement can bring significant savings in both energy and costs. By knowing the humidity level you can, for example, avoid over-drying and heating the air too much. End-product quality Exact humidity data helps you optimize your production process and facilities, as well as make sure that the humidity level in your end-products is just right. Depending on the product, it can mean for example longer shelf life or improved stability. Safety & well-being Humidity control in facilities and moisture control in structures improve both safety and well-being when the air is optimized for breathing and the formation of mold is avoided. Controlling process humidity is also crucial for safety and well-being.
