Protimeter Hygromaster2 Instruction Manual

4. HYGROMASTER2 Modes

The Protimeter Hygromaster2 instrument measures air temperature, relative 

humidity and surface temperature.

4.1  Hygrometer - Selection and Use

Navigate to 

SELECT MODE -> HYGROMETER 

and press 

 to select the 

Hygrometer 

mode.

To use the Protimeter Hygromaster2 as a Hygrometer (see 

Figure 4 on page 

11

), connect the Hygrostick, Quikstick or Short Quikstick probe into socket 

either directly or indirectly with the extension lead.

Relative humidity and temperature measurements are made with the 

Hygrostick, Quikstick or Short Quikstick probe, and the Hygromaster2 

Instrument uses these values to calculate a range of psychometric readings. 

When using the Hygromaster2 to measure the conditions in air, the humidity 

probe is normally connected directly to the instrument. However, when it is 

impractical or awkward to use the instrument in this way, the extension lead 

may be used to connect the Hygrostick, Quikstick or Short Quikstick to the 

instrument. Typically, the extension lead will be used when taking readings 

from probes that have been embedded in structures such as walls and floors.
