Features/Benefits
• Humidity measurement range
0 ... 100 %RH
• Temperature measurement range
HMP41, HMP45: -20 ... +60 °C
(-4 ... +140 °F)
HMP42: -40 ... +100 °C (-40 ... +212 °F)
• For spot checking measurements
• Versatile and easy-to-use
• e HMI41 Indicator can be used
with any of the four available probes
• Extremely thin 4 mm probe head
(HMP42)
• Incorporates Vaisala HUMICAP®
Sensor, which provides high
accuracy, excellent long-term
stability, neglible hysteresis, and
insensitivity to dust and most
chemicals
• NIST traceable (certicate included)
Vaisala HUMICAP® Humidity Indicator
HMI41 can be used with any one of
the four probes to quickly and easily
measure humidity and temperature,
and to make other measurement
calculations such as dewpoint, wet
bulb temperature, absolute humidity
and mixing ratio.
e HMI41 has an easy-to-read LCD
display. Temperature readout is
available in either degrees Centigrade
or Fahrenheit. Calculated variables
are available in metric and non-metric
format.
Ideal for spot checking
applications
e HMI41 indicator with probes
is ideal for use in a variety of spot
checking applications such as plant
maintenance, air-conditioning system
installation and inspection, freezers
and storage and production areas.
Vaisala HUMICAP®
Humidity
and Temperature Probe
HMP41:
is probe is x-mounted directly
on the HMI41 indicator. It can be
upgraded to an HMP45 by purchasing
the HMH45 handle and cable option.
Vaisala HUMICAP®
Humidity
and Temperature Probe
HMP42:
e HMP42 probe can be used for spot
checking humidity and temperature
in applications which require an
extremely thin probe, such as:
• formonitoringthedryingof
structures during construction or
after water damage
• intightplaces
• inductsorchambers
• underalinoleumoor
e probe diameter is only 4 mm,
allowing access into very small, tight,
and hard-to-reach spaces.
Vaisala HUMICAP®
Humidity
and Temperature Probe
HMP45:
is probe for general purposes
features an extended spiral cable.
