Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Extech RH520B Temperature + Humidity Chart

Recorder. The RH520B measures and displays Temperature, Humidity, and Dew Point.

The remote (detachable) probe senses the ambient conditions while the LCD display graphs and

provides numerical representation of the readings. Programmable audio-visual alarms alert the

user when ambient conditions reach alarm presets. The optional alarm module permits

automatic relay switching when alarm presets are reached.

The RH520B Internal Memory can store up to 49,152 measurements for later transfer to a PC.

Careful use of this instrument will provide years of reliable service.

Getting Started

POWER

1. The RH520B runs on battery power or AC adaptor (5VDC 1A). Battery power consists of three

(3) ‘AA’batteries. See the Battery Replacement section of this manual when

changing/installing the batteries. Note: Batteries and adaptor are supplied.

2. Plug the AC adaptor in the AC adaptor jack shown in the Description section. The batteries

will act as battery back-up in the event of an AC power failure.

3. Once the batteries are installed or the adaptor properly connected, the RH520B will begin

displaying.

4. In the unlikely event that the AC power AND the battery back-up fails, the RH520B will

require a “Programming Reset” to reset the display. Press the RESET button located inside

the battery compartment. “Reset” clears all settings. Time, Date and the logging interval

need to be entered. The measurement data and alarm history, however, will still be retained

in the non-volatile memory.

5. The 5-segment battery life indicator allows the user to track the status of the battery. When

all 5-segments are dark, the battery is fully charged. Segments switch off as the battery ages.

When the battery indicator has only one segment left the batteries must be replaced

immediately.

NOTE: Always set the Date, Time, and Sample rate immediately after batteries have been

installed or after the RESET button in the battery compartment has been pressed.

Then press the Data Reset button on the rear face of the meter for >4 seconds to

clear any recorded data.

MOUNTING THE RH520B

The RH520B can be used in the following ways:

1. Placed on a table top where the swivel keypad is employed as the table stand

2. Wall mounted using the rear mounting holes

MEASUREMENT PROBE

The probe is attached to the meter with a 1-meter cable and can be used stored in the RH520B

probe cradle or remotely. The probe cable length can be easily extended with an RJ45 cable and

a gender changer.

PUSH-BUTTON LOCK-OUT SECURITY FEATURE

The RH520B can be secured from tampering by having its push-buttons locked.

1. Press for approx. 1 second and release the UP, DOWN, LEFT, and SET arrow buttons

simultaneously to lock-out the push-buttons.

Note: The security lock-out can only be performed from the main view screen. If a scroll key

or the time button was pressed prior to setting up the lock-out, the user must scroll back to

the main screen.

2. Press for approx. 1 second and release the UP, DOWN, LEFT, and SET arrow buttons

simultaneously to restore the operation of the push-buttons

If 24-hour is selected, the date format will be DAY-MONTH-YEAR

5. Press SET at any time to store the new value and revert to the Standard View

6. Press VIEW at any time to return to the Standard View without storing any changes

CLEARING THE INTERNAL MEMORY

Press the RESET button (located inside the battery compartment) to clear the display and

measurement parameters (sample rate, vertical resolution), and to reset the display.

The oC/oFswitch, located inside the battery compartment, is used to select the unit of measure

for temperature displays

SETTING THE VERTICAL RESOLUTION FOR THE TEMPERATURE GRAPHIC DISPLAY

1. Press the SET, TEMP, and UP arrow buttons simultaneously

2. The upper temperature range indicator will flash, and the SET icon will appear

3. Use the UP-DOWN buttons to change the upper temperature value (5° increments).

4. Press the TEMP button and the lower temperature range indicator will flash

5. Use the UP-DOWN buttons to change the lower temperature value (5° increments) Note that

the upper and lower temperature values cannot overlap, and the upper value cannot be less

than zero

6. Press the TEMP button to toggle upper and lower range values

7. Press the SET button at any time to store a value and return the instrument to the Standard

View

8. Press VIEW at any time to return to the Standard View

Important: After powering on the unit and setting the Date, Time, or Sample Rate you

MUST clear the internal data memory. If you do not clear the internal data memory

you will not get the correct Time and Date stamps (2004) with your recorded data.

Press the Data Reset button on the rear face of the meter for >4 seconds.
