Reduce the humidity in your enclosure to prevent condensation that can cause corrosion and short circuits. These humidistats switch your heater on when the enclosure reaches the relative humidity setting. Once the humidity falls by 5%, the heater switches off. To install, clip humidistats to a DIN rail.
Nonadjustable humidistats work for most applications. They keep humidity below 65%, which is when condensation is most likely to form. Since they aren’t adjustable, the humidity setting can’t be tampered with or accidentally changed. For critical components, use adjustable humidistats to set the relative humidity you need in your enclosure. Use a lower humidity setting in damp environments and places with frequent temperature changes. Condensation is more likely in these situations.
CSA Certified, CSA-US Certified, CE Marked, and VDE Certified, these humidistats meet American, Canadian, and European safety standards. They also meet UL 94 V-0, so if they catch fire, they self-extinguish within 10 seconds and won’t spread the fire by dripping.

Panel-Mount Humidity Controllers
The sensor monitors relative humidity and triggers the controller to turn equipment on or off. Sensor and controller are sold separately.
Controller is SPDT (single pole, double throw). It can be set to turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed). Set the actuation point with the keypad.

These sensors measure temperature and humidity, then send that information to your PLC or controller to regulate heating and cooling equipment, alarms, and data recorders. Choose a sensor that works with your digital IO-Link or analog 4-20 mA system. Clip it to a DIN rail or screw it in to your enclosure, and use the micro M12 plug to connect the sensor to your controller.
Sensors meet American, Canadian, and European safety standards. Rated IP20, they’re designed so fingers can’t reach the electrical parts inside and get shocked. They also meet UL 94 V-0, so if they catch fire, they’ll self-extinguish within 10 seconds and won’t spread the fire by dripping.
