Reliable Performance in Harsh Industrial ConditionsEngineered with 316L stainless steel and certified to IP65 standards, this sensor withstands dusty and wet environments, ensuring uninterrupted measurement and durability. The device works efficiently in air and non-corrosive gases across an ambient pressure range of 1 to 2 bar, making it perfect for demanding industrial applications as a master or reference instrument.
Accurate and Fast Response MeasurementFeaturing capacitive humidity sensing and RTD PT100 temperature detection, the sensor delivers highly precise readings - 0.3C for temperature and 2%RH for humidity - with fine resolutions (0.1C, 0.1%RH). Its rapid response time, typically less than five seconds, allows real-time adjustments and control in critical processes, supporting reliable data-driven decisions.
Flexible Installation and Output ConnectivityWith standard 2-meter cables (customizable), threaded or flange mounting, and support for both analog (4-20mA) and digital (RS485 Modbus) outputs, the sensor integrates seamlessly into existing control systems. Remote digital readout options provide additional convenience, aiding maintenance and operational transparency. Factory calibration ensures out-of-the-box accuracy, while field calibration supports ongoing reliability.
