What is a temperature and humidity sensor?

Temperature and humidity sensors (or RH temperature sensors) are devices that convert temperature and humidity into electrical signals that can easily measure temperature and humidity. The temperature and humidity transmitters on the market generally measure the temperature and relative humidity in the air, and convert them into electrical signals or other signals in the form of output to the instrument or software according to certain rules, to meet the needs of users’ environmental monitoring.

What is the principle of humidity sensor?

The components of the T/H sensor module mainly include humidity sensitive capacitance and conversion circuit. The wet-sensitive capacitor consists of a glass substrate, a lower electrode, a wet-sensitive material and an upper electrode. Humidity sensitive material is a kind of polymer whose dielectric constant varies with the relative humidity of the environment. When the ambient humidity changes, the capacitance of the humidity sensor will also change. That is, when the relative humidity increases, the humidity sensitive capacitance also increases, and vice versa. The sensor’s conversion circuit converts changes in the wet-sensitive capacitance to changes in voltage, corresponding to relative humidity changes from 0 to 100%RH.

Application of temperature and humidity sensors

Temperature and humidity products are widely used in modern times. The equipment room, industry, agriculture, and storage cannot do without temperature and humidity management, especially in real-time recording of temperature and humidity changes. Temperature and humidity sensors can be based on recorded data. Analyze and manage different areas scientifically and effectively. Nowadays, the application of civil temperature and humidity sensors is more and more common, but the industrial temperature and humidity sensors still occupy the dominant position.

 

Temperature and humidity sensor

The temperature and humidity sensor adopts a high degree of protection enclosure, and the degree of protection is IP65. It can be used in outdoor or high dust occasions. High sensitivity, accurate measurement, no fear of condensation, strong anti-interference, stable performance.Temperature and humidity sensors can be used for temperature and humidity detection in harsh environments such as industrial plants, traffic tunnels, energy, and electricity, as well as temperature and humidity detection in computer rooms and laboratories such as fruit trees, gardens, agricultural pastures, agricultural greenhouses, and flower breeding.
