Thank you for purchasing NovaLynx products. NovaLynx has been designing and manufacturing 
weather instruments since 1988. NovaLynx represents several well-known brands of quality 
manufacturers, including Gill Instruments, RM Young, Kipp & Zonen, and Vaisala. It is our hope that our 
products will meet all your monitoring requirements.

INTRODUCTION 

 

The 

225-RHP-2Sxx Temperature and Relative Humidity Transmitters

 are highly accurate and easy to 

use. The polymer capacitance humidity sensor is not affected by condensation, fog, high humidity, or 
contaminants. A membrane filter protects both the humidity sensor and the solid state temperature 
sensor. 

The sensor can be used indoors for HVAC monitoring purposes. An optional solar radiation shield 
(NovaLynx 380-RHRS) protects the sensor from rain and radiated heat when installed outdoors. 

The weatherproof enclosure, cord grip cable entry point, and a filter protect the electronics and sensors 
from environmental or mechanical damage. The mounting bracket fits 3/4" to 1-1/2" iron pipe.  
 

 

The 

225-RHP-2S11

 has 4-20 mA loop powered outputs.  

 

The 

225-RHP-2S33

 requires a power supply and outputs 0-5 volt signals  

Cable is not included but may be ordered by the foot. 

 

Recommended cable: NovaLynx 

330-0524 (

24 AWG, 5-conductor, shielded, with PVC jacket)

PRECAUTIONS 

 

WARNING 

 

– 

 Disconnect the supply before installation to prevent electrical shock and equipment 

damage. Follow electrical code requirements. 
 

CAUTION 

 

  

Use electrostatic discharge precautions (e.g., use of wrist straps) during installation and wiring to 

prevent equipment damage. 

 

CAUTION 

 

  

Do not exceed ratings of this device, permanent damage not covered by warranty may result. The 

4-20 mA models are not designed for AC voltage operation.
