OPERATION

3.5 Port 

Adaptors

The HygroCal100 is fi tted with 8 M30 probe test ports. Each of these is fi tted with an 

adaptor to convert it to one of a variety of probe tube diameter sizes.

Figure 28 

Port Adaptor

The HygroCal100 is supplied with your choice of port adaptor size - additional adaptors 

can be ordered. 

Port adaptors suitable for the following probe sizes are available:

Installation

3.6.1 Chamber 

Connection

To install a probe into the HygroCal100 chamber, fi rstly ensure that you have the correct 

port adaptor size for the diameter of the probe. 

1. 

Remove the blanking plug from the port adaptor and keep it safe. 

2. 

Install the probe into the port adaptor - ensure that the probe is inserted 

as far as possible into the chamber as is possible while maintaining a 

good seal to the sensor body tube.
