INTRODUCTION

1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Description

The S904 Series are completely stand-alone and transportable calibrators for humidity

sensors, requiring no external services other than mains power. The calibrator is capable

of humidity generation over the range of 10-90% RH, with temperature control from

+10 to +50°C (+50 to +122°F). The calibration chamber features 5 interchangeable

ports to accommodate virtually any brand, type or model of sensor. This calibrator is

ideal for companies or organizations looking to calibrate large numbers of probes in a

laboratory or ﬁeld setting.

The environment within the insulated calibration chamber is temperature controlled

using a 4-zone fan assisted Peltier arrangement for maximum stability, and minimum

temperature gradient. The humidity of the circulating air is precisely regulated using

a closed-loop control system that functions by proportionally mixing ﬂows of dry and

saturated air.

Two highly visible LED panels display the current humidity and temperature within the

calibration chamber. The response time to a humidity or temperature step change is

typically less than 10 minutes, so a simple 3-point calibration can be carried out in

under an hour.

The S904 Series is easy to maintain. The desiccant changes color to indicate when it

needs to be recharged and this is visible through a clear window on the front of the

unit. Recharging the desiccant is simply a matter of heating it in a conventional oven

at +130°C (266°F) for 3 hours. The water reservoir at the front of the unit shows

the current saturator ﬁll level, and makes it easy to top-up with distilled water when

required. The only external service required is a single phase power supply.

There are two versions available:

• S904

• S904D

With the S904D version, the humidity and temperature set points of the chamber can

be controlled with the supplied PC application software, enabling the operator to create

completely automated calibration proﬁles for unattended laboratory operation. The

software also gives the ability to monitor, chart and log data from the probes connected

to the S904D or application software for later analysis. Alternatively, the set points can

be controlled manually with the front panel controls - making the S904 Series ideal for

ﬁeld calibrations where a PC is not available.
