Comparing Humidity Instrumentation

Choose the right humidity instrument by carefully examining supplier claims and support documentation

Selecting the right relative humidity instrument for a specific application can be confusing, largely because most instruments on the market have almost identical specifications. Consider, for example, the accuracy specification. Many instruments, of all cost and quality levels, specify accuracy of ± 2.0 percent RH or even better, regardless of the conditions to be measured. Is it possible that instruments, so widely different both in design and cost, are all equally good? Is an accuracy range of 1.0 to 2.0 percent RH commonplace? What about the long term stability of the humidity measurement? What role should it play into the decision making process when selecting an RH instrument?

 


Products & Services
Humidity measurement instruments test for absolute humidity, relative humidity, or dew point in air.
Gas and air instruments detect, monitor or analyze gases present in an environment.
Instrument calibration services test equipment and calibrate them to various standards.  
Humidity transmitters provide electrical outputs that are proportional to humidity inputs. They measure variables such as relative humidity, absolute humidity, specific humidity, moisture content, dew point, temperature, and pressure.
Test equipment and instrument repair services test and repair industrial equipment and instruments. They specialize in the test and repair of acoustic and vibration equipment, electrical and electronic test equipment, laboratory equipment and instruments, inspection instruments or non-destructive testing (NDT) equipment, or specialty testing equipment and instruments.
