1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a PCE-DPT 1 dew point scanner from PCE Instruments.
This device can be used anywhere where there is a certain risk of mould formation. This device is
basically an infrared thermometer with an integrated humidity meter. The two sensors measure the
parameters relevant for the determination of dew points. If the dew point is reached or fallen below, mould
formation can occur. When the dew point sensor starts, the room temperature and atmospheric humidity
can be measured. The dew point then serves as a reference for infrared measurements at places with a
high risk of mould. The energy saving detector then indicates the places with poor insulation possibly
causing damp stains and possible mould formation.
Delivery content: 1 x dew point scanner PCE-DPT 1, 1 x case, 1 x 9 V block battery 1 x manual
