Precision dew point meter in bench-top format, combined with sensor probe design and cable length up to 30m, is suitable for laboratory humidity or moisture measurement.
The Optidew Vision from Michell Instruments is for those who need the high accuracy, repeatability and stability of a cooled mirror instrument.
Its bench-top format with carry handle and optional panel-mounting kit, combined with the sensor probe design with cable length up to 30m, means it is suitable for laboratory humidity or moisture measurement applications.
The precision dew point meter works on the fundamental optical dew point measurement principle, giving unmatched and drift-free long-term performance.
Measurement range is from the equivalent of less than 0.5% up to 100% RH at ambient temperatures from -40 to +90C.
The high definition alphanumeric display shows the measured humidity, dew point, water activity, grams per kilogram and other hydrometric units.
In addition, it provides two linear mA outputs and serial communications, allowing set-up and monitoring by a suitable computer or PLC system or via Optidew Vision logging software.
The sensor can withstand even the most demanding industrial conditions, while retaining the performance and sensitivity of a high-level reference hygrometer.
It is simple to use; just by connecting the instrument and powering it up, it is ready to operate.
The sensor has a corrosion-resistant gold plated mirror and stable optics.
The display unit comes in a smart bench-top housing with ergonomic carry handle.
An optional panel-mounting kit is available for permanent control room installations.
