Museum Hygrometer Specifications


Description:

is carefully to provide years of service.  It will monitor, document and alarm for temperature and humidity.  Data received from its sensors, whether wired or wireless is stored in the memory of the display monitor and graphed on the LCD display.  The display can show days, weeks, months and even years of environmental  history at once. The encrypted temperatures can be copied to your computer with the TView program for archiving or printing.  It can be stored on your computer as an encrypted file.


Details:

The will stores over 60,000 data samples per channel if using wired sensors.  This means that over 1 years of environmental history will be saved if you sample conditions once every 10 minutes.

A password-protected menu is used to set system and display parameters such as high and low temperatures and humidity alarms, sampling intervals, display interval and alarm/relay levels. Since the menu system is password protected the Hygrometer can be placed in high traffic areas so that every staff member can be part of your quality control process.

The Hygrometer is powered by a wall power adapter and has a 9vdc battery backup. It enters battery mode anytime power is interrupted.  Once in this mode the display will 'sleep' to conserve power.  However while the display is asleep, the sensors continue to collect temperature and humidity for several days. In the event that power is not restored before the 9vdc battery is depleted, the stored data will still be retained for awhile, although the unit will not collect new data. Anytime the unit goes into sleep mode the power alarm will begin beeping to alert you that power is missing.
