PM880

Panametrics Portable Hygrometer

PM880 is a Panametrics product. Panametrics has joined other GE high-technology sensing businesses under a new name GE Industrial, Sensing.

Sensing

The PM880 hygrometer is a complete, intrinsically safe, portable system with options and accessories to meet all industrial moisture measurement needs.

This hygrometer is small, lightweight, and easy-to-use. The large LCD displays moisture readings in dew point (°C or °F), ppmv, ppmw, lb/MMSCF (natural gas), and a variety of other unit options. Data can be viewed in alphanumeric or graphic formats. A rechargeable battery pack and battery charger make this the ideal go-anywhere moisture analyzer.

The PM880 comes in a soft carrying case with zippered compartments, a handle, and a shoulder strap. The case accommodates the PM880, a sample system, flexible hosing, probes with protective covers, an Moisture Image Series probe electronics module, an operating manual, a battery pack, a battery charger, and probe cables.

Training for the PM880 is available on-site, in the factory or on line. GE offers extended warranties and service agreements for the PM880 as well as a range of services including NIST-traceable calibration, field calibration, rentals and moisture surveys.
