The HMT360 series are the ideal solution for humidity control in hazardous areas.

  • They operate safely and reliably in explosive atmospheres of category 1 (zone 0).
  • Performance and proven technologies of HMT360 transmitters comply with international standards.

 

Caracteristics & Benefits

  • Measurement of humidity and temperature, and calculates other parameters: dew point, mixing ratio, absolute humidity and wet bulb temperature
  • Safe operation of the transmitter and sensor in ATEX zone: Category 1G / Zone 0 and 1D / Zone 20 with protective cover
  • Intrinsically safe
  • Excellent performance in harsh environments
  • The HUMICAP sensor is accurate and reliable and provides excellent long-term stability and negligible hysteresis
  • Five interchangeable probes
  • Temperature range from -40 to 180 ° C depending on the type of probe
  • NIST traceable (certificate included)

 

Intrinsic Safety

The entire HMT360 transmitter housing can be installed directly in explosive areas. The HMT360 transmitters can withstand continuous exposure to potentially explosive environments that contain flammable gases or dust.

 

Configuration Bespoke

Options and accessories offer great versatility to the HMT360 series. The user can specify the transmitter configuration when ordering, tutefois it is possible to change the configuration on site.

 

Five Interchangeables Sensors

The HMT360 offers five probe options for various applications
HMP361For wall mounting
HMP363For confined spaces
HMP364For applications under pressure
HMP365For high temperature
HMP368For high pressure applications


Interchangeable probes can be removed easily and quickly or reinstalled when needed. The modular structure facilitates the calibration and maintenance. The same control unit can be used for calibration of different HMT360 probes due to their interchangeability. All calibration parameters are included in the probe itself allowing great flexibility of use without accuracy is affected.

 

Optimized Sensors

In addition HUMICAP sensor, Vaisala also offers sensors for specific applications with presence of chemical compounds.

 

Long-term Solution

The HMT360 transmitters are a long term investment; their robust design and sustainable maintenance for the control of humidity and dewpoint in explosive environments. Calibration and maintenance contracts are available on request.
