Sontay launches digital humidity sensors

Sontay's new RH humidity sensors incorporate specially resilient, self-calibrating digital sensing circuitry to ensure accurate and reliable performance up to 100% relative humidity.

Sontay, the market leader in control peripheral products, has introduced a new range of sensors, featuring the latest advanced digital technology, to offer precision measurement of relative humidity values in commercial and public building applications.

Sontay's new RH humidity sensors incorporate specially resilient, self-calibrating digital sensing circuitry to ensure accurate and reliable performance up to 100% relative humidity.

They provide reduced hysteresis and repeatability of the control signal, features further enhanced by the digital electronics being scaleable, allowing the precise operating range to be selected.

This new breed of sensor also features adjustable sensitivity.

By narrowing the range to the preferred RH, this results in greater accuracy and higher resolution, important in many of today's close control applications.

Provided with a choice of either a +/-2% or +/-3% degree accuracy, Sontay's RH sensors include options for a local display of up to three sensed variables and the capability for direct thermistor temperature measurement to widen application versatility.

Additionally, these units may be specified with output signals for enthalpy and dew-point, particularly useful in air handling and chilled beam applications, a feature usually available only in process quality sensors.

At the same time, on-board diagnosis speeds installation and commissioning time.

Designed for installation as integral sensing devices within a building's control system, outputs are link selectable with 4-20mA or 0-10Vdc outputs.

For further details of the new RH humidity sensors from Sontay, contact the Customer Services Team at Sontay on 0845 345 7253.

Specific product descriptions and technical datasheets can be easily viewed or downloaded at www.sontay.com.

The RH series is part of Sontay's comprehensive control peripherals offering to the UK building services market.

Sontay products are renowned for their accuracy, reliability and discrete appearance and are used by many of the market leaders in the worldwide building controls industry.

Their products and control solutions help improve building management system performance, reduce energy and maintenance costs and increase occupant comfort levels.
