1.  INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION

1.1 

General description

The probes of the 

TRH200

 series are devices with 4 ÷ 20 mA 

current output for monitoring relative humidity characterized 
by a very low energy consumption. 
The 

TRH200

 uses a high-precision sensor and its conver-

sion / retransmission devices are of quality to ensure high 
reliability and excellent long-term stability.

2.  USAGE WARNINGS

2.1 

Admitted usage

 

D

The instrument has been projected and manufactured 
as a measuring and control device to be used accord-
ing to EN60730-1 at altitudes operation below 2000 m.

Using the instrument for applications not expressly permitted 
by the above mentioned rule must adopt all the necessary 
protective measures.
The instrument 

must not be used

 in dangerous environ-

ments (flammable or explosive) without adequate protections.

 

D

The installer must ensure that the EMC rules are 
respected, also after the instrument installation, if 
necessary using proper filters.

3.  INSTALLATION WARNINGS

3.1 

Mounting requirements

Select a mounting location having the following characteristics:

•  It should be easily accessible;
•  It must not be subjected to vibrations or impacts;
•  Must be free from corrosive gases;
•  Must be free from water or other fluids (condensation).

3.2 

Installation position

Wall fixing is done by clips.  Particular attention must be paid 
to the sensor positioning, it must be kept away from heat 
sources that can influence the humidity measurement.
It is a good idea to mount the probe with the sensor facing 
downwards (output cable upwards) and 

NEVER

 with the 

sensor facing upwards and also horizontally to avoid possi-
ble measurement errors due to self-heating.

NO

OK

NO

BEST

Cable

Any error in humidity measurement may be due to the settling 
time of the probe, in this case it will be necessary to wait for 
the time necessary to achieve a stable measurement.
Steam jets, water sprays, drafts, direct sun exposure, conden-
sation on the sensor or mounting on a wall made cold by the 
outside temperature can also cause important measurement 
errors; due to these conditions, during the installation, the 
probe must be protected from any possible external influence.
