HygroMer IN-1 - The perfect Sensor for industrial applications

 

Industrial - humidity sensor

 

•Established on the market over 10 years

•Advanced mechanical design and chemical resistance

•Good long-term stability

 

A capacitive polymer humidity sensor is a special type of humidity sensor based on the use of polymeric materials to detect changes in humidity. The sensors utilize the properties of polymers that react to moisture and thereby influence the capacitance of the sensor. The evaluation electronic convert the capacitive value into humidity value.

 

The HygroMer IN-1 sensor stands for Industrial and is considered for measurements with moderate to high temperatures.

 

Applications

 

•Pharmaceutical & Food industries

•Industrial high-temperature

•Chemical industries, processes and manufacturing
