Product Overview

The DH-1/24V duct humidistat offers a calibration-free, high accuracy and high quality solution to 

humidity control of duct airflow in heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. The unit  

is powered from a 24V AC or DC supply and mounts directly on to the outside of the ductwork, with 

the probe projecting into the duct.

The DH-1/24V regulates to a fully adjustable relative humidity set-point between 5% and 95%, 

combined with an adjustable relative humidity hysteresis (differential) of anything between 1% and 

10%.

Product Wiring

1.  IMPORTANT

: ensure all electrical connections are isolated before commencing any work on the 

unit.

2. 

Power to the humidistat is provided via the 24V AC/DC input terminals. No specific polarity is 

necessary on the power connections.

3. 

A voltage-free changeover relay output capable of switching loads of up to 10A, 250V AC 

(resistive) is provided by the humidistat.  Connect to your application in an appropriate manner 

given the following:

•  The Common “COM” terminal is connected to the 

Normally Open “NO” terminal when the sensed 

relative humidity is above the “Setpoint” humidity. 

(Use to control dehumidification equipment, 

including air conditioners.)

•  Conversely, the “COM” terminal is connected to the 

Normally Closed “NC” terminal when the relative 

humidity is sensed to be below the “Setpoint” 

humidity. (Use to control humidication equipment.)
