Vaisala HMP8 Humidity and Temperature Probe

Vaisala HUMICAP Humidity and Temperature Probe HMP8 is designed for pressurized applications in compressed air systems, refrigerant dryers, and other pressurized industrial applications where easy insertion and removal of the probe and adjustable installation depth into the pipeline are needed.

Vaisala is the original innovator of the thin-film capacitive humidity measurement technology, which has now become the industry standard in humidity measurement. HUMICAP technology results from Vaisala's 40-year experience in industrial humidity measurement, providing the best stability, fast response time, and low hysteresis in a wide range of applications.

In environments with high concentrations of chemicals and cleaning agents, the chemical purge option helps to maintain measurement accuracy between calibration intervals. The chemical purge involves heating the sensor to remove harmful chemicals. The function can be initiated manually or programmed to occur at set intervals.

The probe is plug and play compatible with Vaisala Indigo™ series of transmitters, or it can be used as a standalone digital Modbus RTU transmitter over RS-485 serial bus. For easy-to-use access to field calibration, device analytics, and configuration functionality, the probe can be connected to Vaisala Insight™ Software.

Indigo transmitters o„er a variety of connectivity options through analog signals or digital outputs, configurable relays, and wireless (WLAN) configuration interface, providing a suitable solution for all industrial humidity measurements. The cable length between the probe and transmitter can be extended to up to 30 meters.

Each probe is manufactured and individually calibrated in Vaisala's worldclass facility in Finland. The traceable factory calibration certificate is included also in electronic format in the probe. The interchangeable probes minimize the downtime associated with maintenance. Validate and maintain the accuracy by calibrating the instrument on the field or use the easy and thorough calibration service in Vaisala's service facilities in Helsinki, Boston, Beijing and Tokyo.
