Humidity and temperature are important parameters in meteorology. Accurate weather forecasts and decisions made on the basis of them are only possible with exact measurements. Our humidity sensors have a reputation for providing precise results even in extremely demanding environments in which, for example, high humidity and low temperatures prevail.
For the challenging requirements of weather stations, we offer weather and radiation shields for sensors to protect the probes against precipitation and radiation.
We also offer sensors equipped with an automatic sensor heater to prevent condensation. In such environments conventional probes can become covered in condensation, thereby delivering falsified measured values.
Naturally ventilated shields are used where the natural ventilation (wind) suffices, e.g. measurement stations in the mountains.
The HC2A-S / HC2A-S3 is the most versatile probe from ROTRONIC and forms the basis of the product portfolio. It measures humidity and temperature and calculates the dew/frost point.
