The Veris HWX3XSTC deluxe wall humidity sensor provides an ideal solution for measuring relative humidity in all conditions. Equipped with a thin-film capacitive sensor that is easily replaceable in the field, the Veris HWX3XSTC's most common application is the management of energy systems such as controlling HVAC systems for improved comfort and energy savings in museums, schools, printing shops, and other locations requiring humidity control. The HWX3XSTC also facilitates compliance with ASHRAE standards for environmental control and indoor air quality.
The HWX3XSTC has the capabilitiy to sense humidity in harsh environments. The thin-film polymer capacitive sensor element recovers from 100% saturation. You may replace the element in the field, helping to maintain accuracy and minimize downtime. Easy installation includes polarity insensitive, two-wire 4-20mA and flexible systems compatibity which both save time in the field, and allow you to stock fewer devices.

*Specified accuracy with
24VDC supplied power with rising humidity. RTD/Thermistors are not compensated
for internal heating
of product. |
| **Reset Rate is the time
required to recover to 50% RH after exposure to 90% RH for 24 hours. |
***One side of
transformer secondary is connected to signal common, so an Isolation transformer
or dedicated power supply
may be required.Shielded cabling is required for conformance to EMC
standards. |
