® EHRH Waterproof RH Transmitter The EHRH Relative Humidity Transmitter is a waterproof RH sensing element and package which is ideally suited for monitoring relative humidity in high RH/harsh environment applications or where washdowns are required. The unit is designed for continuous monitoring of relative humidity and temperature and is available in ±2% accuracy. Both the sensor and electronics are contained in an epoxy-hardened enclosure designed for continuous service. A water-tight membrane filter is installed over the RH sensor for increased protection against high RH, contaminants and washdowns. The unit is designed to withstand 100% saturation. Features • Waterproof sensing element and housing • Compact transmitter with built-in sensor • Bulk polymer resistance RH sensor • Resistant to contamination • Thermistor temperature measurement • Temperature compensation The sensor incorporates a bulk polymer resistance element. The polymer is impervious to most contaminants and, since it is a bulk resistance device, surface contamination such as dust will not alter the accuracy of the readings. Applications The unit is provided with continuous temperature compensation which adjusts for temperature-induced change in the RH sensor output. The compensation provides high measurement accuracy over the entire operating range of the instrument. • Food processing • Greenhouses • Textile mills • Shipping containers • Swimming pools • Hospital suites Amphenol Advanced Sensors EHRH Specifications Humidity Temperature Sensing Element Sensing Element Resistance change of bulk polymer sensor Accuracy at 77°F (25°C) ±2% RH. 30 to 95% RH including hysteresis, linearity, and repeatability.
