A humidity meter, or hygrometer, is an instrument used to measure the amount of moisture in the air or other gases, with applications spanning industrial manufacturing, agriculture, meteorology, and indoor environmental control. It quantifies humidity using two primary parameters: relative humidity (RH, the ratio of actual water vapor to the maximum capacity at a given temperature) and dew point (the temperature at which condensation occurs). Technologies employed include capacitive sensors (using polymer films that change capacitance with moisture), resistive sensors (conductive materials with humidity dependent resistance), and chilled mirror sensors (for high precision dew point measurements). Accuracy ranges from ±2% RH for industrial models to ±0.1°C dew point for laboratory grade devices, with response times as fast as 2 seconds for dynamic environments. In manufacturing, humidity control is critical for processes like electronics assembly (to prevent static electricity, typically 30 50% RH), pharmaceutical production (moisture sensitive drugs), and food processing (to maintain product shelf life). WondersunM’s humidity meters feature rugged designs with IP65 protection for harsh industrial environments, along with data logging capabilities to track humidity trends over time. They offer both portable units for field measurements and fixed installation systems for continuous monitoring, with outputs (RS485, analog) that integrate with building management systems. Compliance with standards like ISO 18413 ensures measurement reliability, helping industries optimize processes, reduce waste, and maintain product quality.
