Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________ General Information
Ground the product, and verify outdoor installation grounding
periodically to minimize shock hazard.
Do not modify the unit. Improper modification can damage the product,
lead to malfunction, or make the product noncompliant
legislation.
Recycle all applicable material.
Dispose of the unit according to statutory regulations.

Safety
The DMT340 Dewpoint and Temperature Transmitter delivered to you
has been tested for safety and approved as shipped from the factory. Note
the following precautions:
WARNING
CAUTION
with applicable
ESD Protection
Recycling
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can cause immediate or latent damage to
electronic circuits. Vaisala products are adequately protected against
ESD for their intended use. However, it is possible to damage the product
by delivering electrostatic discharges when touching, removing, or
inserting any objects inside the equipment housing.
To make sure you are not delivering high static voltages yourself:
- Handle ESD sensitive components on a properly grounded and
protected ESD workbench. When this is not possible, ground yourself
to the equipment chassis before touching the boards. Ground yourself
with a wrist strap and a resistive connection cord. When neither of the
above is possible, touch a conductive part of the equipment chassis
with your other hand before touching the boards.
- Always hold the boards by the edges and avoid touching the
component contacts.

Transmitters with WLAN Interface
This device has been designed to operate with a 2 dBi half-wave antenna.
Antennas with a gain greater than 2 dBi are prohibited for use with this
device. The antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and
its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated
power (EIRP) is not more than that permitted for successful
communication.
This Class [B] digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe [B] est conforme à la norme NMB-
003 du Canada.

CHAPTER 2
PRODUCT OVERVIE W
This chapter introduces the features, advantages, and the product
nomenclature of the Vaisala DRYCAP® Dewpoint and Temperature
Transmitter DMT340 Series.
Introduction to DMT340
The DMT340 transmitter measures dewpoint temperature accurately in a
measurement range from -60ºC to +80 ºC (-76 ... +176 ºF). The AutoCal
feature provides excellent long term stability of the measurement.
DMT340 incorporates the advanced DRYCAP® technology, which
enables reliable and high-performance dewpoint measurement.
Apart from the extended dewpoint measurement range the optional
modules provide for more flexibility. See Table 2 on page 18 for the
quantities that DMT340 measures and calculates. See Table 3 on page 18
for the optional quantities measured by DMT340.

Panel Mounting Frame
To enable a neat and dirt free embedded installation of the transmitter, a
panel mounting frame is available as an option (Vaisala order code:
216038). The frame is a thin, flexible plastic frame for the transmitter,
with adhesive tape on one side.
The frame is used to hide any rough edges of the installation hole, and
provide a more finished look. Note that the panel mounting frame is not
intended to bear the weight of the transmitter, and does not include any
mounting supports.
Use the panel mounting frame as follows:
1. Use the frame as a template to mark the required size for the
installation hole in the panel.
2. Cut the hole in the panel.
3. Mount the transmitter through the panel with suitable supports.
