Programmable Devices Warn of High or Low Humidity Conditions

Humidity_alert The Extech Humidity Alert is an electronic, programmable device with alarms that warn of high or low humidity conditions. The easy-to-read LCD monitor displays current percent relative humidity, temperature, & dew point.

The Humidity Alert:
• Monitors dew point levels in basements for potential mold growth
• Indicates humidity & temperature levels in production areas
• Alerts low humidity levels in computer rooms to help prevent electrostatic conditions
• Checks the humidity & temperature levels for optimal plant growth in greenhouses

Specifications:
• Humidity: 10% to 99%
• Temperature: 14°F to 140°F (-10°C to 60°C)
• Basic Accuracy: ± 4% RH; ± 1.8°F / 1°C
• Dimensions: 4.3 x 3.9 x 0.78" (109 x 99 x 20 mm)
• Weight: 6 oz (169 g)

Stick Desiccators Provide Humidity & Condensation Protection

Stick_desiccator Ideally suited for applications where restricted space or access makes the use of standard desiccator assemblies or desiccant bags difficult or impossible, stick desiccators are supplied with a sealing washer & require only a screwdriver for fixing in place.

Stick desiccators can be screwed into equipment or instruments using a standard M5 threaded mounting hole to provide effective protection against humidity & condensation. They are now available in a wide variety of sizes filled with your choice of silica gel or molecular sieve desiccant.

Such items as small enclosures, optical sighting devices, & camera lenses often require protection against the effects of humidity & condensation, but their size & design prevent the use of conventional desiccators which may protrude into the optical path. Stick desiccators can be retrospectively fitted to instruments & equipment that prove to need protection.
