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.

No condensation at extreme humidity

Probe heating functionality heats up the whole probe head. When probe temperature is heated above dew point temperature, condensation on the probe can be avoided.

Flexible connectivity

The probe is plug and play compatible with Vaisala Indigo series transmitters, can be used as a standalone digital Modbus RTU transmitter, or connected to Vaisala Insight™ PC Software.

Optimized drying process helps Isolava cut energy consumption and improve end-product quality

Isolava began a project to optimize the drying process, led by Project Engineer Peter Vaneyghen. The first step was to install humidity sensors in the dryer in order to get a better understanding of the dynamics of the drying process. The consumption of natural gas alone has decreased by some 20% and the annual savings across all ten dryers add up to hundreds of thousands of euros.

What is a smart measurement probe and what makes it special?

Environmental measurement devices are also becoming smart. Unlike in the past when measurement probes could not be used on their own, the new wave of smart measurement probes can operate independently without additional transmitters.
