HC2A-S3A High-End METEOROLOGICAL PROBE
The HC2A-S3A probe is the meteorological probe with a white housing but with a different filter (Wire-mesh filter with 10 µm filter pore size suitable for meteorological applications). It measures relative humidity and temperature and calculates the dew/frost point and is designed for the use in Rotronic meteorological applications.
Features of the meteorological probe
- Accuracy: ±0.8 %rh, ±0.1 K, at 23 °C (10...30 °C)
- Range of application: -50…80 °C / 0…100 %rh
- Digital interface (UART) and scalable analog outputs, 0…1 V
- Standard output scaling: 0…1 V = -40…60 °C / 0…100 %rh
Advantages
- Especially designed for the use in meteorological applications
- New humidity sensor HYGROMER HM1-SK
- Outstanding accuracy, repeatability and long-term stability
- Available with interchangeable sensor
- Hot swappable, no calibration adjustment required due to the digital interface with Rotronic devices
Smart Electronic
- Based on the Rotronic’s AirChip3000
- Calculates the dew / frost point
- Saves adjustment data so that probes can be interchanged without re-adjusting (Hot-swappable)
Flexibility and Compatibility
- User scalable analog analog ouput signals (2x 0…1V)1
- Digital interface via UART
- Compatible with Rotronic devices HF5, HF8 and HP32
