Description

  • Benefits and Characteristics of the HYT 221

    Mechanically robust and with a chemical and condensed waterproof sensing area, our HYT 221 humidity module with a round stainless steel casing can easily be fitted into housing openings and can be sealed against the wall with the use of an O-ring. Combined with the waterproof metal filter, it results in an assembly that is splash waterproof and enables a sealed housing construction while providing a high dynamic responsiveness. Precisely calibrated, the HYT 221 delivers an accuracy of ±1.8 % RH and ±0.2 °C and combines the advantages of a precise, capacitive polymer humidity sensor with the high integration density and functionality of an ASIC. The digital software integrated in the module processes the measured data and delivers the physical parameters of relative humidity and temperature over the I²C-compatible interface as digital values. The HYT 221 humidity module is fully interchangeable without adjustment, and both the linearity error as well as temperature drift are corrected “on-chip”, resulting in outstanding accuracy over a wide range of applications.

    Further advantages of the HYT 221 digital humidity module include:

    Calibrated and temperature compensated
    Excellent humidity/temperature accuracy and stability
    High chemical resistance
    I2C protocol (address 0x28 or alternative address)
    Wide humidity and temperature range (0 % RH to 100 % RH and -40 °C to +125 °C)
    Very low drift
    Very stable at high humidity
    Interchangeable without adjustments

  • Option: High-end humidity calibration HYT modules

    With the development of a high end humidity calibration and measurement set up, the HYT sensor family boasts the accuracy of up to +/- 1.4 % RH and sets new standards for moisture measurement with low hysteresis and easy plug-and-play interchangeability.

    Our three HYT models can be ordered with a tailored calibration, which allows an accuracy of higher than +/- 1.4 % RH when used in combination with a limited range of 0-50 % RH. For dew point applications measuring in the range of 0-5 % RH, you can even reach an accuracy of < +/- 0.5 % RH.
