Temperature

Working-temperature range +7 above ambient temperature up to +90 °C
Setting temperature range +18 to +90 °C
Setting accuracy temperature 0.1 °C
Temperature sensor 2 Pt100 sensors DIN Class A in 4-wire-circuit for mutual monitoring, taking over functions in case of an error

Humidity

Humidity Control Active microprocessor control for humidifying and dehumidifying (20 – 95 % rh), incl. digital indication and auto-diagnostic system ensures even more rapid reaching of set humidity and very short recovery times. Humidity supply with water (only for demineralised water with a conductivity of 5 to 10 μS/cm and a pH value between 5 and 7; from an external tank) by a self-priming pump; integral bacteria block by generating hot steam, dehumidifying via sterile filter
Setting range active humidity control 20 to 95 % rh and rh-Off
Setting accuracy humidity 0.5 % rh

Temperature Humidity Working Range HCP

Not all climate chambers are the same. The humidity content of the chamber load, the ambient conditions and the respective temperature-humidity working range are decisive factors in the selection of the right appliance. In the adjacent diagram, you can see the possible temperature/humidity combinations for our humidity chambers HCP.

Within the respective temperature-humidity range, permanent operation is possible (at an ambient temperature of 22 °C ± 3 K, relative humidity < 50 %). Condensation may occur in the threshold range. To which extent depends on the humidity content of the chamber load and the ambient conditions.
