Relative Humidity and Temperature Probe HMP8
Relative Humidity and Temperature Probe HMP8
Vaisala HUMICAP® Humidity and Temperature Probe HMP8 is designed for pressurized applications in compressed air systems, refrigerant dryers, and other pressurized industrial applications where easy insertion and removal of the probe and adjustable installation depth into the pipeline are needed. The HMP8 is part of the Indigo product family and compatible with Indigo 200 Series Host Devices and free Insight PC Software.
Key Benefits
Proven Vaisala HUMICAP Performance
Vaisala is the original innovator of the thin-film capacitive humidity measurement technology, which has now become the industry standard in humidity measurement.
Chemical Purge Minimizes Effects of Contaminants
In environments with high concentrations of chemicals and cleaning agents, the chemical purge option helps to maintain measurement accuracy between calibration intervals.
Flexible Connectivity
The probe is plug and play compatible with Vaisala Indigo host devices, can be used as a standalone digital Modbus RTU transmitter, or connected to Vaisala Insight™ PC Software.
