Vernier Relative Humidity Sensor
Order code: RH-BTAVERNIER RELATIVE HUMIDITY SENSOR
Vernier's Relative Humidity Sensor contains an integrated circuit that can be used to monitor relative humidity
over the range 0 to 95% (± 5%). The sensor has applications in weather studies, monitoring greenhouses
or for determining days when static electrical discharges could be a problem.
The Relative Humidity Sensor can be used to
Measure relative humidity in the air as part of a weather station
Monitor indoor humidity for health reasons
Optimize conditions in a greenhouse or terrarium
Determine when static electrical discharges will be a problem
Study transpiration rates of plants by monitoring relative humidity in sealed jars containing plants
Requirements:
This sensor requires suitable software and an interface such as one of the Vernier LabQuest variations or Vernier Go-Link.
For comprehensive details of the possible sensor/interface/software combinations see the Compatibility Guide link below.
