225-050Y and 225-500-A Relative Humidity and Temperature Probes
225-HMP50YA RH/Temp Sensor & 225-500-A RH/Temp Sensor

The 220-504-A Relative Humidity Sensor utilizes a capacitor consisting of a metallic grid deposited on a polymer-coated glass plate, the hygroscopic polymer film serves as the dielectric. The dielectric constant of the polymer material increases with the amount of water absorbed; therefore, the capacitance of the sensor depends on the relative humidity. An electronic circuit in the sensor body converts the capacitance to a voltage output which is linearly proportional to the ambient relative humidity. Calibration adjustment potentiometers are provided.

The 225-500-A Relative Humidity & Temperature Sensor has the addition of an integrated circuit transducer that provides a linear microamp current output proportional to temperature. The 225-501-A utilizes a one-element thermistor and the 225-503 uses an active temperature circuit with a linear 0-1 Vdc output. Contact NovaLynx for other temperature sensor options.

The 220-HMP50UA Relative Humidity Sensor features the laser trimmed INTERCAP® capacitive for accurate relative humidity measurements. The chip is user replaceable and requires no calibration. A membrane filter protects the sensor from dirt and dust. The 225-HMP50YA Relative Humidity and Temperature Sensor also measures temperature. The sensor should be mounted in a solar radiation shield when placed outdoors.
