EXTECH INSTRUMENTS ANNOUNCES NEW

MULTI-FUNCTION SUPERHEAT PSYCHROMETER

 

Ideal for Wet Bulb, Dew Point, Relative Humidity Plus Differential Measurements

 

 

Extech Instruments, one of the world’s largest suppliers of test equipment and portable printers, is announcing the availability of its SuperHeat Psychrometer, Model RH350, through its Instruments Division.

 

Designed for HVACR, mold prevention and plant maintenance applications, Extech’s SuperHeat Psychrometer features a large display which allows for the simultaneous display of three parameters: Relative Humidity with Ambient Air Temperature, plus Dew Point or Wet Bulb or external temperature . Incorporating the inputs from two external Type K probes, T1 and T2, differential measurements can be displayed as T1-T2, Air Temperature-T1, and T1-Dew Point. The large backlit LCD provides an easily readable display of switchable temperature units (Fahrenheit or Centigrade) with 0.1-degree resolution.

 

Built-in memory will store up to 99 data points. In addition, minimum, maximum and average readings - with date and time - can be easily recalled on the LCD. A built-in RS-232 interface (with optional RS-232 cable) utilizing Windows® Hyperterminal software allows downloading data to a PC for subsequent analysis.

 

Other features include a real-time clock, Auto Power Off, and a unique sensor cap that twists to closed position for protection during storage. The Model RH350 comes packaged with two Type K bead wire temperature probes and four AAA batteries and weighs less than 5.3 ounces. An optional RH355 accessory kit is available which includes the RH350 psychrometer, two Type K temperature probes, 33% and 75% calibration bottles, RS-232 cable, four AAA batteries and a carrying case.
