Schematic Humidity Display and Humidity Transducer sensor

A humidity display is a device which displays information about humidity. It can be attached to a remote or local sensor, and may provide real time humidity updates and information, or periodic updates, depending on design. Some humidity displays are digital, while others use analog display dials to provide information to the observer. Many companies manufacture devices which take and display humidity measurements and these devices can be purchased through hardware stores, electronics suppliers, and stores which stock climate control equipment.

The HIH-4000 Series Humidity Sensors are designed specifically for high volume OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) users. Direct input to a controller or other device is made possible by this sensor's near linear voltage output. With a typical current draw of only 200 µA, the HIH-4000 Series is often ideally suited for low drain, battery operated systems. Tight sensor interchangeability reduces or eliminates OEM production calibration costs. Individual sensor calibration data is available. The HIH-4000 Series delivers instrumentation-quality RH (Relative Humidity) sensing performance in a competitively priced, solderable SIP (Single In-line Package). Available in two lead spacing configurations, the RH sensor is a laser trimmed, thermoset polymer capacitive sensing element with on-chip integrated signal conditioning. The sensing element's multilayer construction provides excellent resistance to most application hazards such as wetting, dust, dirt, oils and common environmental chemicals.

Humidity displays are used in facilities like greenhouses, museums, and other structures where control of humidity and climate are crucial. In these facilities, the display may even be linked to an alarm so that dangerous changes to the humidity will be addressed as quickly as possible. In this case, in addition to being located inside the room, a humidity display can also be rigged to a remote device, allowing people to check the humidity from an offsite location.

Humidity displays are also typically part of weather stations, allowing people to make a note of the humidity when taking other weather observations. In many areas, regular reports from weather stations are submitted so that meteorologists, government officials, farmers, and other people interested in ongoing weather conditions can keep an eye on weather situations. These reports may be manual or automated, depending on the station and the agency responsible for maintaining it.

Climate control systems in private homes and office buildings may also have humidity displays so that people can make adjustments to the system as needed. The humidity display usually shows both inside and outside humidity, and may display humidity in relative and absolute values as well. Some toggle back and forth between different measurements of humidity, or show several different humidity readings so that people can easily compare and contrast.

A humidity transmitter is a device designed to measure the humidity in a given environment and transmit the data to another location. Many come in the form of bundled devices offering measurements of temperature, as well as humidity. The device may transmit data to a nearby base station, allowing people to monitor humidity without having to enter the environment where the humidity transmitter is located, and data can also be sent out across longer distances over the Internet or using radio transmitters. These devices have a wide range of applications and are readily available from scientific supply companies.A humidity transmitter may be capable of remote calibration, allowing people to test the device and confirm it is working over a distant connection. In addition, the device can be programmed and reset to meet changing needs, such as transmitting data more or less frequently. Usually, the more features a remote sensing device of this nature has, the more expensive it tends to be, as these features add to the cost of production, as well as maintenance.
