This portable dew point
hygrometer integrates the accuracy
and reliability of the OMEGA® chilled
mirror with the battery life and
ruggedness required for field use.
The RHB-1500-C portable chilledmirror hygrometer has all the
standard features, such as driftfree NIST-traceable accuracy, low
maintenance, high durability, and
ease of use—in a system that is
ideally suited for the demands of
field use. Whether you use the
RHB-1500-C as a field transfer
standard or to spot-check your
process air dryness or dew point,
you’ll find this system provides
trouble-free operation.
The RHB-1500-C is a self-contained
system. Not only is field assembly
not required, but also there is not
a need to carry around a myriad
of individual components such as
control boxes, sensors, cables,
pumps, and power cords. Simply
attach the sample line, adjust the
flow (with the integral flowmeter),
Hu-55
and turn on the power. Within
minutes you’ll be collecting field dew
point data with the same
chilled-mirror accuracy of a
lab-standard hygrometer. And with
a nominal battery life of 12 hours,
the RHB-1500-C lets you collect for
the entire shift or spot-check your
processes for several days.
