HYGROFLEX 3

 
Description
HygroFlex3 A good moisture sensor is critical to many industrial processes. With Rotronic you get reliable moisture sensor technology and the application know-how from Europe’s leading humidity and temperature measurement company.

We have a broad range of moisture sensor technology that will enable you to get accurate humidity measurements in even the most hostile of environments.

Moisture sensor - the HygroFlex range

Take our HygroFlex 3 moisture sensors for example. Capable of providing accurate humidity and temperature measurement over the range -50ºC to +200ºC, HygroFlex 3 moisture sensors are used throughout process monitoring and control, drying processes and semi-conductor manufacturing applications. These highly advanced transmitters calculate a range of moisture parameters from humidity and temperature measurement data, and feedback via 3 analogue outputs and a serial interface to dedicated Rotronic software that enables you to display, trend and alarm your moisture data in real-time. HygroFlex 3 transmitters can be used for calculating a range of other humidity parameters including dew point, frost point and mixing ratio, and can include dynamic pressure compensation.

The HygroFlex 2 moisture sensor system offers monitoring of up to 32 different locations and 64 probes in one networked solution. The HygroFlex 2 moisture sensors have a purely digital output providing direct interface into a PC and are often used in process, storage and manufacturing industries.

HygroFlex 1 moisture sensors provide analogue outputs with local measurement indication and are often used in process control, monitoring systems and climatic control chambers.

Moisture sensors - Rotronic solutions

Rotronic has an enviable reputation in the UK and Europe for sophisticated moisture sensor solutions - helping customers to specify the appropriate moisture sensor technology for the right application. Measurement techniques available include capacitive, resistive, dew point and chilled mirror.

HygroFlex 3 combines most of the features of HygroFlex 1 & 2 to produce probably the most advance humidity and moisture transmitters available.

Notably, the unit can provide 3 analogue outputs simultaneously with an RS232/485 digital signal. The output signals can be assigned by the user with HW3 software.

Also worthy of mention is the units ability to dynamically compensate any pressure dependent calculated parameters, such as wet-bulb temperature.

Key Features:
  • Calculation of different humidity parameters, dewpoint, mixing ratio, etc
  • Input for digital or analogue ROTRONIC probes
  • Dynamic pressure compensation of calculated parameter (needs pressure probe!)
  • 3 analogue outputs
  • Jumper configurable output signals (0...10 V/4...20 mA/...)
  • Simultaneous RS232/485 output (for %rh and ?C)
  • Networkable (RS485) up to 32 instruments (in conjunction with HW3 Software)
  • Second probe input (digital or analogue, e.g. pressure probe)
  • Fully re-programmable by the user

  • Audible and visual alarm function with notification by email or SMS (in conjunction with HW3 software)
