RELATIVE HUMIDITY AND AIR TEMPERATURE
Manufactured By: Vaisala and YSI
   

The relative humidity and air temperature sensor is compact and easy to use. The relative humidity element is a hygroscopic
capacitive type and is fully interchangeable. These elements never need calibration. Instead, elements can be easily replaced
without the expense and inconvenience sometimes associated with the calibration process. The membrane filter/mechanical
housing of the sensor protects it from dust and dirt. Includes YSI 44034 Themilinear Bead for air temperature measurement.
