Are Your Meter Readings Accurate?
Are Your Meter Readings Accurate?
Print
Share:
You count on your thermo-hygrometer to provide you with accurate information. But errors do crop up, and here’s why they might be happening:
Insufficient acclimation time. This acclimation time can range from 2–15 minutes, depending on the model used and conditions of the air stream.
Weak battery
Soiled or damaged probe
Operator’s breath or perspiration
Proximity of air currents (e.g., HVAC, dehumidifiers, airmovers, etc.)
Specification limits of the probe being used (many do not read below 20% relative humidity)
Since thermo-hygrometer readings are used to make psychrometric evaluations and demonstrate that equipment is really working, make sure your readings are accurate.
