HYGROSMART ®
INTERCHANGEABLE
MODULE
The WM291 relative humidity transmitter includes the
interchangeable Hygrosmart module. The interchangeable
module lets you recalibrate the transmitter simply by
replacing the sensor head with the Hygrosmart module. As a
result, maintenance costs are greatly reduced and down-time
is minimized.
